I hate trump as much as the next guy but I have to wonder whether it's appropriate to editorialise posts like this?
Like linking to an article, and then providing a rebuttal in the post body. I mean it's funny as hell in this case, but would it be more appropriate as a comment?
Mad respect to flyingsquid, prolific poster, commenter, and active mod. No rules being broken of course. I'm just concerned it might not be the right practice for a news community.
If it were a conservative perspective with MAGA editorial I sure wouldn't appreciate it.
I don't feel like I was editorializing apart from being sarcastic. I was showing that it was a complete lie. Fact-checking is not editorializing.
"Fact checking" only those articles you disagree with is editorialising.
I'm sorry you don't like it that Laura Loomer is, in fact, part of Trump's campaign, but it's still a fact.
You've misunderstood my concern.
I despise Trump and this vapid weirdo.
I suspect that if a MAGA idiot was posting in this way users would be quick to point out that it's not appropriate for a news community.
That said, I don't want to make a big deal out of it. Do what you like.
