  • Yes, it does.

    If the title was "Linking the Delta crash to DEI", then it would be amplifying the lies. (And would be click-baity to boot.)

    Maybe if the title was "Right-wing journalist links Delta crash to DEI" you might be able to argue that it was an amplifier, but the insertion of "right-wing" is clearly indicsting out that there is a bias involved that is being called out.

    Adding "gross" cannot be more clear. If you are unable to comprehend that this is saying that linking the two is disgusting and unfactual, then you will never comprehend anything that is written to indicate that, whether it's before or after the the statement.

    You are now erroneously calling out two people (the youtuber and the OP here) who are clearly calling out the terrible behaviour of the person making the link, instead of praising them for standing up to that "media host".

  • But the post is using the title from the video, which is standard practice. Personally I think the "gross" and "right-wing" make it pretty clear what the title is saying.

  • Isn't that the point of the posted video?

  • Probably the answer to that question is in one of Yves's (the activist in question) books on Canada's relationship with Israel. It's much more complicated than U.S. bootlicking.

    The fact that this is happening in Montreal is interesting since it has a large Jewish population, but has now grown a huge Arab population, and anti-Semitism there is pretty big now.

  • None in 16 years? Maybe no airliners, but there have been plenty of small planes crashes in North America. They're pretty dangerous.

  • GlomarResponder is James “Jim” Joseph Rodden according to the article.

  • It's more a commentary on your writing style, but the potential for satireality is written all over it.

    <be me
    <sell off all my Bitcoin
    <put it all into GME stock right when it was starting to go up
    <because why not right?
    <1000 bucks or something
    <because everyone said the bitcoin bubble was going to pop or something
    <bitcoin goes from 30k to 60k in like two months
    <now it's closer to 100k

    Long story short I make bad choices and no fuckin way I'm selling my GME for a loss just for it to double or triple again in two months

  • Lol, they're calling you out!

    We encourage you to explore this report and its accompanying research brief. However, because Russian entities and individuals sympathetic to Putin's decision to invade Ukraine have mischaracterized this research in recent weeks, we also encourage you to explore this helpful resource on Russia's “firehose of falsehood” approach to propaganda and our research on “Truth Decay,” which is a phenomenon that is driven in part by the spread of disinformation.

  • Most of the shenanigans are with ink printers, no?

  • I haven't heard of this. I make my personal websites from scratch in html and css using notepad++. I should probably modernize....

  • No, he did not. But I thought it was funny to say he was an immigrant, and it doubled as bait for people to call out that he wasn't. Hook, line, sinker?

  • I'm pretty sure that video just got posted recently in the new YouTubeClassics community.
