        Pretty much isn’t good enough for this. Maybe I am being critical, but when you use this article as an example, the first thing your MAGA granddad is going to say is, “Where’s the quote?” In my experience, you need it plainly spelled out to make a difference.

        I am going to leave it now because, truthfully, I’m not trying to fight or pull a gotcha on you libs; I can’t stand the shit bag either. I just feel like if you are a news source trying to fight this shit you might want to provide the actual quote and not paraphrase it. If I missed a truth social link then my pihole is working lol

        Edit: also we weren’t talking about the yahoo article they posted the whole quote. I am being critical of MSNBC for paraphrasing.

        Okay now I’m done lol

          The direct quote is “But the Radical Left Lunatics, as they often do, are trying to illegally and collusively boycott Tesla”.

          Tell me what part of my quote in my previous comment isn’t direct.
