Such criticism is unusual, as Beijing is one of Russia’s top allies and has not condemned the all-out invasion of Ukraine.

Just trying to understand the downvotes here? What's the criticism regarding this article?

[-] Zerfallen@lemmy.world 50 points 1 year ago

Maybe because it's using "slams" in the title.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 year ago

that's where my downvote comes from, at least

[-] mim@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 year ago

Tankies.

[-] Tazmanian@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Maybe because it was released yesterday and people are angry it not fresh news. :)

[-] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

I would guess it’s tankies or Russian apologists.

I downvote and don’t read any article that uses hypewords like “slam”. It’s like the arrows people put on their youtube thumbnails. Low effort journalism, but I guess it works.

Lemmyers SLAM clickbait headlines with this one simple trick!

[-] ShroOmeric@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I mean it's Politico - that alone makes me want to downvote.

[-] pirate526@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I see no downvotes 🤔. It’s at +61/-0 right now so far as I can see..

[-] Levsgetso@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 year ago

For some reason downvotes from Lemmy don’t transfer over to kbin, but I don’t know how you see +61, for me it’s +35/-2

It's a preemptive post. Karma whoring in lemmy. Sheesh

Rules:

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
