Thanks. I hate click bait headlines. “You won’t BELIEVE what Sanders said about Musk!!”
Appreciate it 👍
You ratio'd the post. A rare feat.
You could have chosen to not share this misleading headline
This community has a matching headline rule, not sure if it's enforced though.
Nowhere did I suggest posting the garbage article with an adjusted headline.
A person is not obligated to share an article with a misleading headline in the first place.
For you to equate practicing responsible journalism with breaking rules must mean you're not simply an idiot; you're an active enabler of misinformation, and blocking you would be a net-positive act.
Your comment is ambiguous, I read it as if your issue was the headline because that is what you wrote. I considered adding they could have found a better article so they wouldn't be stuck with the dumb headline but I figured you were intelligent enough to understand that was a possibility and it would be pointless to include. I didn't realize what a massive conflict addict you are though so now I have to reply to you like you're a toddler. Block me please, for my benefit.
