I do think we don't have a clear policy on opinion pieces and that's absolutely something we should work towards. Right now it's more of a case-by-case basis.

If you could point to some specific examples that would be great!

Now would be a good time to describe what specific issues you have with Greenwald's reporting on past issues and where he's been inconsistent with facts revealed after the fact.

His stint at The Guardian where he broke the Snowden leaks?

His work at The Intercept that revealed the corrupt dealings that led to Brazil's Lula losing the election and being imprisoned?

Or is it his appearances on US media, where he's on record for questioning the efficacy of Russian interference in the 2016 election (which IIRC is backed by a study in Nature Communications) and criticizing Israeli influence in US politics?

I'm not disagreeing with you, but you're not exactly providing much in the way of evidence outside of your own opinion.

This article is based on an investigation by Reuters: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-covid-propaganda/

If you are going to discredit a source, please try to discredit the claims made rather than the author.

If you're going to discredit a link, please make sure that the statement itself is incorrect. You are being warned.

Kyiv Post also calls it an early warning radar complex: https://www.kyivpost.com/post/34782

This is a good point and we'll take it under consideration. Unfortunately, sometimes we do have to make a judgement call, but if there are any particular cases you'd like to discuss please mention them here.

Until reports are publicly released by the EPA or judicial proceedings continue, this is not a valid news source.

Really? Damn. Either way, archive link in the comments would be preferred.

Are you? You don't seem to be listening.

If you refuse to read what Castro actually said, that's hardly my problem.

Weren't ships declaring CHINESE CREW AND OWNER on AIS and successfully traversing the strait? That's what I remember browsing the AIS tracker sites a few weeks ago

You claimed that real estate is one of the easiest ways for people to invest their money.

In the future when citing Reuters, please use one of Reuters' official outlet links (reuters.com, YouTube/Twitter from the Reuters account).

Good, now read what Castro actually said on the issue (when he wasn't busy being assassinated by the CIA).

How does lowering down payment requirements from 50% (!!!) prop up a market? It tweaks the demand curve a tiny bit, but like I said it's towards engineering a soft landing. I told you that the central government is trying to engineer a soft landing. What evidence do you have that disproves this?

Investors (who could afford to buy multiple homes) lose money. How terrible.

Is this a common thing in the US? Evaluating investments based on how easy they are to make, independent of their PnL?

Look back at your original comment and come back. Read carefully, like they taught you in primary school.
