    Oh shit, did they make false claims in this article?

    Or do you just object to their biased reporting? Because then we can exclude everything from AP news (“Israel ‘’‘’‘‘tests’’‘’‘’’ ceasefire”) to fox news.

      What a shit take. You’re information hygiene has to be completely cooked to defend tabloids like this. This is an objectively poor source that’s basically just the Daily Mail 2.0 that pumps out clickbait.

      This article is reporting on the same thing, but it is so much better:

      https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp8pz5nm6r8o

      Supporting shitty tabloids doesn’t become okay just because they pump out headlines you agree with, the point is the quality.

        Information hygiene

        links to a BBC article reporting on Israel

        Is it a lack of self-awareness? Denial? Or just DARVO? It’s an extraordinary act of mental gymnastics in any case. Some people have really taken the plunge into this “post-truth” thing.

        What you seem to call “information hygiene” most others call “bias in favor of Israel”. Do you earnestly use the term “sterile street” too?
