For the younger folks: Kerry got some seriously badass medals for his military service in Vietnam. People who had been on the same boat as he did, but at a different time, worked with the Republican party to claim that he hadn’t really done what he did. The press ate this up, and distributed it widely, costing him public support and likely the election.
What is this headline? Fucking garble. Every word capitalized, reads like shit. All the headlines are written in this weird way lately
Title case or headline case - Wikipedia
But arguably that headline is garbage title gore. The “On” should be “on” the very least and “Swiftboating” would make it more comprehensible.

We don’t do that much in Europe
For me it’s the Swift boating, certainly when it’s with capitalization and a space. It makes me think they somehow went on a cruise on Taylor Swift’s private yacht.
It’s a prime example of why the headline capitalization is not great.

Lol. Imagine suffering like this over some random dude online.
If you don’t know that rather obscure reference the sentence turns into a garden path one.
I’m not even a American native so how should I know. Watergate I grok, this I’ve not heard of
If you give up on society this easy i think you are the problem, though.
