2·1 hour agoFeatured! I was thinking about making one, but except for the Governors race where it’s top 2 advancing to the General, it’s kind of a nothing-burger.
“it should ONLY be to add context or be more descriptive”
Your addition was your personal editorial opinion and as such was not allowed.
So far, you are the only person not comprehending the difference so I’ll give you more examples:
Adding context: When a person is named in the headline, but it’s not clear who they are:
https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/02/politics/jimmy-gomez-house-ethics-investigation
“Exclusive: House Ethics Committee investigating Rep. Jimmy Gomez over sexual misconduct allegations, sources say”
You could say:
“Exclusive: House Ethics Committee investigating Rep. Jimmy Gomez [D-CA34] over sexual misconduct allegations, sources say”
You can’t say:
“Exclusive: House Ethics Committee investigating [piece of shit cheater] Rep. Jimmy Gomez over sexual misconduct allegations, sources say”
More descriptive:
“House Speaker Lisa Demuth to run in GOP primary for governor”
You could say:
“[Minnesota State] House Speaker Lisa Demuth to run in GOP primary for governor”
You can’t say:
“[Handmaid’s Tale fan] House Speaker Lisa Demuth to run in GOP primary for governor”
What you inserted in brackets wasn’t objective. It was you personally pontificating on the subject and as such was NOT allowed.
It’s rule #1 written in plain English.
The vast majority of other submitters comprehend this quite easily, the multiple people reporting your post sure did!
He could just admit what all the MAGAts want: “If we make it harder for disenfranchised minorities to survive, that benefits straight, white, maies, right? This is what people voted for!”
I haven’t seen a debate go that sideways since Charlie Kirk…
It’s not, it was reported and I removed it when I saw the report.
Damn it, Gastronauts sounds hilarious, I don’t need another time sink. LOL.
(Says the guy who puts on the America’s Test Kitchen channel on as background noise.)
You added your own editorial commentary in the headline which we do not allow. Thank you for removing it!
It IS allowed in the body or a top level comment, just not in the headline.
Self posts are not allowed.
The brackets are editorial comment, not context. 😉
Context would be like if it didn’t explicitly say “Maine” so you put up “Will [Maine] Voters…”
We don’t allow editorializing in the headline, you can put it in the body of the post or a top level comment.
I generally give time to correct it before just removing it so the clock starts… now!
You’re building a history of locked and removed posts.
We require the headline match the original source, in this case:
“Mandelson described Starmer’s No 10 operation as ‘beleaguered and bereft’ in published files – as it happened”
Repeated removals looks intentional and will result in a temp ban. I’ll give you time to fix it, but it’s not a good look for next time.

Not if you’re deficient. 😉

I like Thom Hartmann, but there’s a difference between a court for one tiny town saying corporations can vote in municipal elections in that one town and “ZOMG! Corporations can vote in Delaware!”
Some significant problems:
-
You have to be 18 to vote, if “corporations are people”, wouldn’t that eliminate any corporation founded in the last 17 years?
-
How would “a corporation” register to vote in the first place?
-
How would “a corporation” cast a vote?
If it falls to the CEO to register and vote for the company, how is that not double voting?
If the CEO is not a resident of that town, how is that a legal vote?
Too many flaws in this story that Hartmann fails to address…
-
Vegans + Butter? 🤔
Killed herself is a little different from “died”.
But what they are burying here is B-12 deficiency is not limited to vegans. Anyone can have it.
“Gray said Owen “reported to her family that she had bought an organic B12 supplement from Canada” and would take a daily dosage of 1mg.”
Yeah, not enough. My doc has me taking 2,500mcg or 2.5mg.
