Someone‘s feeling called out. At least going by your post history of politico garbage.

  • It looks like you looked at their last post and basically nothing else.
  • Politico is a reliable source for US politics, and they were correct to post it for the article "Republicans unlock filibuster-skirting power to pump billions of dollars to ICE".
  • I don't immediately see the OP posting the IB Times over and over or being told why not to.

Politico is owned by a fascist (yes, actually ideologically fascist) company that openly supports neo Nazis. It doesn‘t matter what Politico says just like it doesn‘t matter what for example the 5 Minute Crafts Youtube channel shows. Engaging with either directly supports fascism. Your click is their currency after all.

This has been explained in several communities by several members in much more detail by the way but you won‘t listen.

If a story is worth reporting about there are a number of sources you can site but for whatever reason a hand full of accounts keep shoving Politico in our faces.

Yes, this is a problem.

LOL! After I call you out you think you can pull the Reverse UNO card? Should everyone who does post something get your personal approval first to make sure it meets your lofty standards?

It's always the ones who contribute absolutely nothing who whine most bitterly about what is being contributed by others. If you don't like what's being posted you can get off your fat ass and post something yourself.

Hmm...

Contributing isn't just posting. This is social media, not just media. Comments are as much a contribution as posts.

For it to be a reverse card you would have to call me out first but you didn‘t. You just proved I don‘t make problematic posts.

Having no problematic posts only because you don't participate at all is not something to brag about. Instead you make problematic comments when you whine about other people's posts.

It's sad you don't have the self-awareness to be even slightly embarrassed when that's pointed out.
