We’ve had some trouble recently with posts from aggregator links like Google Amp, MSN, and Yahoo.

We’re now requiring links go to the OG source, and not a conduit.

In an example like this, it can give the wrong attribution to the MBFC bot, and can give a more or less reliable rating than the original source, but it also makes it harder to run down duplicates.

So anything not linked to the original source, but is stuck on Google Amp, MSN, Yahoo, etc. will be removed.

      Ah, right, I left that off of my script notes! It’s one of your classics. I’ll be sure to keep that one in mind moving forward.

      I, for one, am happy to see people treating your posted content the way they do: like spam and propaganda. If you keep it up, you’ll reach your next major milestone of 50,000 downvotes. Truly something to aspire to.

          You sure find propaganda and spamming interesting. You’re prolific in posting it, that’s for damn sure.

          Luckily, they get downvoted so fast that they never cross the feeds of those browsing hot and top. As long as that’s happening, I’m happy and content.

              Oh, sorry, I think you’re confused again; I’m here to help show the few people who do see your posts that you’ve got a clear agenda and pretty much only post propaganda and otherwise spam the politics community. Luckily, the downvotes show that much of the active community here is already aware, but in case they don’t understand why you’re getting downvoted, I want to show them why. I don’t care about anything else past letting that be known.

              Oh, and I like keeping track of the rotation of like 10-15 talking points you have. Keeps things interesting and entertaining.

                  Okay, as long as we’re clear that I don’t care about your thoughts or opinions we’re good here! I’ll see you on your next inflammatory propaganda post, but I’ll probably wait for you to say your go-to “I don’t write the [propaganda], I just post the [propaganda], take it up with the [publisher/mods] if you don’t like it” lines there first.

              I don’t believe my posts are either of those

              I do, and Lemmy agrees, so I’m happy with that. Everyone can have an opinion, but like most of Lemmy, I don’t respect yours because it’s based in propaganda and right-wing talking points.
