The killing, which Iran and Hamas blamed on Israel and pledged to avenge, threatens to plunge the region further into chaos and raised fresh doubts about Gaza cease-fire talks.

I don’t understand why people seem to hate this bot. I’ve seen commenters saying MBFC itself is biased but without actually providing any sources which is sort of ironic, and one bright spark vowed to downvote it every time because “they’re begging for donations”
I’m not a fan of the format personally. It looks like crap on my client and takes up half the screen when the relevant information only really needs a line or two. I think the information is useful but I’m still on the fence about blocking it because it’s quite the eyesore.
There are people here with a wide range of opinions held very strongly. So of course the bot is going to be a blessing to some and nefarious and evil to others. Apparently like the leader of Hamas.
I want others to see my comment, before lemmy gets flooded with bots (just like reddit already is) flooding my screen with walls of text. Is that so horrible to give some feedback? Are your feelings hurt? HOLY FUCK.

You can view the examples of bias in the stickied mega thread.
If you haven’t seen it, it’s because you haven’t tried to look.
It very clearly has a Zionist bend, and will actively downgrade the rating for news sources critical of Israel.

I mean how do you even source a claim like that? That said, MBFC messes up a lot. I mean how the hell is NYT left wing?

Which disagrees with objective reality.
I was giving an example.

Again, left-center is included under the general classification “left wing”, which NYT is absolutely not. Are you being willfully obtuse?

Even giving examples of this supposed bias would be better than essentially just going “they’re biased trust me bro”
I’m so tired of this bot. It’s like the biggest wall of text
Tired enough to spend more time complaining about it than it would have taken to block it?

I think you are unreasonably upset, have fun with that.
No, I’m tired of your ilk that can’t seem to contend with any negative feedback.
My comment was extremely benign.
I also provided an explanation for why I went with the comment instead of blocking the bot.
If it hurts your feelings every time someone expresses the least amount of indignation at anything then I can’t help you. Sorry it made you upset.
