Accepting whatever makes “the other side” look bad instead of fighting for the truth is the reason we’re in this thread talking about that dipshit [Trump]. I’m not sure I’ll ever understand why the fuck people in this thread fighting against that so hard
Trump is a convicted felon, promoted beans at the resolute desk, received millions of dollars in inauguration fundraising from big tech, has his own cryptocurrency which he promoted by promising presidential access, and is being called a madman by economists for the least stable US economic policy since Bretton Woods.
Trump is not like “other country leaders”. Historically the above would be disqualifying for “other country leaders”. You can’t cover news about him like “other country leaders”. I almost can’t believe that you’re saying that you can.
Yes, but the implication of “given the medal to look at” and “pocketing FIFA medal” is that Trump “stole” it or wasn’t supposed to keep it, which I haven’t seen supported by a credible source yet.
Edit: regarding your own edit (adding the second image), I found no information at the linked source supporting the sentence as presented.
Nonetheless, it’s pretty common for news sources.
E.g.:
All use this style of paragraphs. It’s not universal but I’m surprised that it’s surprising anybody!
That’s… pretty common for news sources?
Well, the trans person who triggered the alarm wasn’t violently executed, so in a way they kind of were allowed to live their truth?
I have linked a video showing what actually happened, linked a verified signatory of the International Fact Checking Network and member of the European Fact-Checking Standards Network saying that it was given to him and that the submitted headline is misleading, and your response is “don’t be naive”.
Are you guys fucking for real? What the fuck even counts as credible evidence to you anymore!?
If you have credible evidence saying it was only gifted retroactively, please link it. The video evidence does not appear support that interpretation of events.
I’m all for dunking on him but it looks like he was given it, and I haven’t seen any other evidence suggesting the medal was intended to be given back: https://youtu.be/b5I2adhIn7U?t=174
Fake news isn’t less bad just because it’s “your side” doing it
Tangential, but I’m kind of surprised they’re just using a wordpress.com blog for this (and have been for some time, evidently).
That’s a fantastic point Darkassassin07, thank you for sharing your parenting tips! #ToughLove #ShootYourKids

Yeah I’m not a big fan of the hoop-jumping - being able to withdraw the money when needed (without losing the bulk of the interest) was a big pro of a ubank account for me but I guess not anymore 🫠

excellent notthechaser material
Wait, the feet guy is making a video game?
The short paragraphs thing predates smartphones and the collapse of print newspapers (here’s a paper from 1996 that does it), so fwiw I don’t think it’s that. I assume it’s some sort of stylistic / presentation thing that’s just normalized in news reporting. Maybe it’s an outdated holdover from print media somehow (where presumably more spacing = more expensive, so it presumably wasn’t a financial motivation) but I think orgs would’ve moved on by now if it was purely done for unnecessary legacy reasons.
