The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

But not much more. Here's a fun experiment you can try at home.

Go into a thread you generally agree with. Post something that supports that vibe, BUT start your paragraph with a negative word.

People will take the vibe from that one word and not consider the meaning of the rest of your post. They don't comprehend sentences or paragraphs, they take the vibe of the first charged word they see.

It's depressing how true that is.
