All of your comments are factually incorrect, unsupported by your own link, and mostly attacks aimed at the other commenter.

Why don’t you quit digging this hole?

Same reason I don’t provide a source magic and wizards and fairy tales not existing. Anyone stupid enough to believe obvious rubbish doesn’t care what your source is.

Fact checking, obviously.

Your original post asks if you’re a journalist for fact checking articles, we got to these comments from that.

Where do you think sources end? If I mention that biden is currently president, do I need a source linked? If 1+1 is 2, do I need to provide a source? Do I need to source the definitions of every word? Do I need a source that vaccines don’t cause autism? That 5g doesn’t cause COVID?

It’s hard to discuss this without knowing what text you’re referring to, and if I go back to check if you mentioned it I’ll lose my comment because I’m using an app. Some things don’t need sourcing because they’re accepted facts, like who the president is, basic science, simple maths, etc, but most important, the things that an article should always cite are the claims the article itself is making. I wouldn’t cite sources for 5G not causing covid, for example, unless the article was specifically about that.

…yes…but you do understand a journalist is someone who writes/reads news right? They’re not just sat around with sources for no reason, those sources are specifically so they can report news…that’s the point. What do you think a source is!?

Ok how are you fact checking, are you finding people with expertise and contacting them or googling and using whatever shite websites come up as a source? If the latter, how are you verifying the veracity of those sources?

And yes sources are required but that doesn’t mean that’s ALL that’s required or you wouldn’t have newspapers or organisations, just some people calling themselves journalists that have a bunch of sources, but nobody knows what for because they’ve never produced a piece of journalism for them to be of use.

The idea used to be that you find a news source that is the most reliable. Now half the world just finds the one that confirms their biases the most, and their biases are fucking stupid after decades of lies and education cuts from various rich cunts.

No? For a start, journalists write news, are you writing it down in an article afterwards?

Yes…yeeees… Tell me how to get into one so I can ensure don’t accidentally do it…

Ha! They must have missed the billboards, front page newspaper articles, TV reports, and public service annou- oh wait.

Yep, we need proportional representation. And Labour won’t do anything about it because they benefit from it.

You want to be like America? Because a two party system where the right party keeps going right and the left party, which is already right of centre, follows them to court their voters is how we get there.

We have two parties. One getting more and more extreme and one that’s letting them, just like in America. People are severely underestimating how dangerous this is and if you’ve paid any attention whatsoever over the last decade and a half is should be painfully obvious that we are actually tied to America by outside influences and that connection is slowly pulling us off the fascist cliff after them.

Trump supports Israel’s “war against terror.” He has said so. His supporters do too. Nikki Haley wrote “finish them” or something on a missile whilst in Israel. Trump is wholeheartedly in support of this genocide and will definitely never set any kind of red lines around it. Biden is shit but trump is a whole sewer worth.

Uhuh and when an innocent person is murdered by a group of vigilante morons, because murderous groups never, ever stop to check, every single one of those vigilante morons can go to prison so they can do the crime for their time. Law and order exists for a reason, imprisonment is the consequence of their actions. If they’re assaulted, that’s assault, if they’re murdered, that’s murder.

Besides. Why the fuck would you want to lower yourself like that? Why go to prison for a rapist, is it worth it? If you think so, that just means the rapist will take your life as well.

It’s been around since the 80s, we already know long term outcomes.

I don’t think I’ve ever owned a smartphone without one.

Judging by the content of your replies, it’s probably because you’re stupider.

Yes we know, and that’s why we are all so curious to find out why you only give a shit about Israeli civilians. You cunt.

I listen to an audiobook every day, watch TV and movies regularly.

Yep, it was great. I picked it back up after not finishing it so did the DLCs to stretch it out as I was near the end. Finished The Foundation yesterday, not as good as the main game or AWE. I’ve downloaded Alan Wake Remastered now, so that’s next.

This is the weirdest comments section I’ve ever seen. Stories are why I play every single one of my favourite games. I just finished Control and it’s absolutely phenomenal. Yes it plays and looks great, but the story and lore is why it’s so good.
