To save you all some time:
I posted an article that’s already widely available on a much bigger platform than Lemmy. I didn’t write it or create the content. It’s already out there for anyone to see, so all I did was share it here for discussion. If you disagree with the article itself, that’s fine, but calling for it to be censored or accusing me of pushing an agenda simply because it’s not what you want to read is misguided and lazy. Open debate requires different perspectives, not shutting down content you don’t like.
It’s not my job to convince you that I’m not a Republican, that I don’t live in Russia, or that despite posting hundreds of socialist articles to the socialist community, I’m somehow not a socialist. If that’s what you want to believe, cool, then go ahead and think that. Not my problem. :)
If you’re getting worked up over a news article I didn’t even write, that’s on you. Be mad if you want, but I’m under no obligation to prove anything to you. I’ll share my opinion, and you can take it or leave it. Either way, not my problem.
In the past, when I’ve tried to defend myself, people accuse me of not listening. If I stay quiet, they take it as guilt.
Here’s the deal: I’m still going to post what I want in this community because what I’m posting fits within the theme and guidelines of this community which celebrates diversity of thought and opinion.
So, go ahead and expect me to copy and paste this comment into the many, many arguments you’re going to try and start. Whether you believe me or not, I don’t have to prove anything to you. I’ll share my opinion, and you can take it or leave it. Not my problem. :)
What are you on about? No body was in here saying anything?

Yeah, as a RESULT of me putting the disclaimer. Feel free to check out my post history, friend. PLENTY of people have had a lot to say about me, just because I post an article.
Hopefully this disclaimer helps people to calm down a bit. EDIT: It didn’t help.
No your account is brand new and has shit loads of activity for reasons besides people knowing those reasons and calling you on it. Everyone here knows what I’m saying but in a fucked up twist of irony, calling out this behavior is against rules.
What behavior are you referring to? You mean me posting an article that’s already widely available on a much bigger platform than Lemmy? One that I didn’t write it or create? It’s already out there for anyone to see, so all I did was share it here for discussion. If you disagree with the article itself, that’s fine, but calling for it to be censored or accusing me of pushing an agenda simply because it’s not what you want to read is misguided and lazy.

Those words don’t seem to mean what you think they do. Yet you copy paste them ad nauseum

They mean exactly what I think they do.
I don’t write the news, friend. I just post it. You’re typing is still a little off tho with that strange uppercase/lowercase thing you have going on. I do hope you are ok.
Please contact the news org if you find inaccuracies in the article. Or contact the mods if you feel the article has been posted to the wrong community. Thank you!
No one cares what you wrote on any news website. And you know that. Now go on about AI girlfriends again. Because that’s a thing.
