Nope. You did great. Our rules state that a post must contain a link to an article. Keeping the video as primary, and adding a link as the comment suffices. We usually don't give the warning, but I felt that your post added good context for the news surrounding the breaking news.
Downvoted because I agree. I type at a computer all day. When I get off, the last thing my tired brain wants to do is read more. I know - I'm lazy, but I'm TIRED.
Upvoted because you're dead wrong, in my opinion. Your argument incentivizes the demise of the human race by saying "stop having kids to save money". Society is made up of generations. Get rid of the youngest generation, you remove humanity.
(looks at !iowa@lemmy.world that I mod) I feel personally attacked.....
Seriously, I get what you're saying. I do it because I don't have anything meaningful to say when nobody else is posting, but I want the community to not die.
Arrow down, because I always thought that was how you should do it. Wife showed me her using a fork, and I was like "what kind of monster raised you?!?"
That's a valid question. The mod team here is still working on ironing out rules and other things. That should be a topic we discuss. With that said, for now, political posts can be here, but the votes will determine if they are seen. Again, this is for now, while we try to stabilize things and determine our approach.
Yeah. The admins locked it down a few days ago, as there was no active mods. They put out a request for moderators. They picked 3, and we're open again!
Ah, but the joy of pulling one on them....
