    Because OP is the worst. Perpetually online and perpetually unpopular

    I saw this photograph of a printed article someone posted earlier. The comments called that person out for cropping out the actual article, which was measured and nuanced, and using the headline as ragebait. Dude here just elevating to the next level of ignorant

    Here’s the actual article

      Thanks. I hadn’t read the actual article due to paywall.

          Like it’s a meme or something.

        Hey TB, do you occasionally throw out comments from a [far] right perspective, and perhaps subsequently delete them?

        You certainly ruffle feathers, but it would be unique behavior to be such a prolific left-wing poster yet sometimes randomly do the opposite. Have been enjoying Lemmy and feel it’s worth digging into potential unconventional uses of the platform.

          That would be in bad faith and trolling.
