Context:
The article in question was well sourced, factually accurate, and written by a well-renowned author and journalist whose work appears elsewhere too, regardless of which outlet published it.
Nonetheless, Jordan Lund is once again blindly trusting a pro-zionist conservative outlet masquerading as a bias and fact checker that nothing from anywhere that criticizes the fascist apartheid regime can be reliable 🤦
Shitty sources get removed, full stop.
The author doesn’t enter into it.
The quality of the article doesn’t enter into it.
We aren’t giving traffic to them. Or Fox, or Newsmax or Oann, or, etc. etc. etc.
If you don’t like that, feel free to post elsewhere, we have higher standards.

That’s a bullshit policy and if you didn’t have your “this is how I do it because this is the way I do it” blinders on, you might understand that.
You ARE aware that a lot of publishers, ESPECIALLY ones that don’t worry enough about quality and reliability, look at number of impressions when deciding what kind of things to post more of, right?
By keeping people away from something GOOD they post, you’re giving Mint a perverse incentive to post less quality journalism about Gaza and more of the kinds that IS bullshit but gets more clicks.
I will.
Fixed it for you.
No, because if we allow one source that’s questionable, then the next time this comes up it will be “But, but, you allowed this other bullshit source, why not miiiiiiiine??!???” We aren’t opening that door.
We went over this with the legit journalist posting from Substack. Don’t care, Substack isn’t a source.
Read what other people are telling you in this very thread, YDI.
We all already knew youre a dog shit mod, Jordy, but if you’re really too stupid to know how to respond to that then you should definitely be stripped of any responsibility IRL and digitally
It’s not a slippery slope when he’s a living example of what I’m talking about.
“Buuuut my bullshit source is special! I’m different!”
No it isn’t, and no you aren’t. I swear, we need an alternate community to PTB - call it WLB - Whiny Little Bitches.
Holy slippery slope fallacy, Batman! 🙄
I have, and most either agree with me or disagree based on the irrelevant point you keep harping on.
Rigidly dogmatic mods such as yourself is the reason why most people from other instances avoid .world when possible.
Use a better source and you won’t have this problem. For now?
