      But you don’t know me. And this community isn’t about me. This community is a political news community and I posted community news from an approved news org. So what seems to be your issue?

      As long as the link is approved and valid, what’s it matter who publishes a link to a news article? Seems like a “you” problem, not my problem. You can easily block me or leave this community if you don’t believe certain people should be allowed to post here.

      Last I checked tho, it was a public community.

          It matters, and you used up the “I’m just a guy posting things” justification.

          But why would that matter? It’s the message, not the messenger. I AM just a guy posting things.

          You’re the one that seems to be implying that just because I’m the one posting it, the message should be disregarded. Is that fair to the AP News people who wrote the article, who researched it, who did all the reporting–all of their hard work?

          Not only that, I didn’t even post the article, I posted a LINK to the article. But you want to disregard everybody’s hard work and fact finding, because you don’t like me. And you don’t even know me.

          Your bias is affecting your judgement. Is that really what you’ve become since the election didn’t go your way? Someone who’s so blinded by frustration that they will just ignore facts simply because of the poster.

          You even actively, publicly requested that I get banned. And I post links AP news and reuters articles. But hey, you don’t like me, so that’s totally enough for a ban, right?

          Also, feel free to post all the articles you want if you don’t like mine.

          And, unlike you, I’ll choose to judge them based on content, not you as a poster.

          You can even go farther. Start your own community and only post content you want, and don’t let people you don’t like post there. That way it can be 100 percent your little gated community.

          I’m fine if ya chose that route too.
