The reports were asking for removal because they consider AJ to be a propaganda source. I’m clarifying that we do not concurr and won’t be removing posts simply because they come from AJ.
Well, some are worse than others. :) We’re working on a list of unacceptable sources. Epoch Times, places like that. Regardless, AJ is not unacceptable.
Sure, but what differentiates “propaganda” from media that simply falls outside of the Western Overton window? Given the absolutely terrible coverage we’ve had of the Palestine-Israel conflict from supposedly “reliable” and “factual” Western sources (among other instances), it’s hard to argue that the Western Overton window represents “reality” so much as it represents “what’s acceptable.”
You said Overton window, please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this comment. Now there is a whole train of men masterbating together at this one comment. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

All media is a propaganda source, either explicitly or implicitly. Calling for removal because of “propaganda” is nonsensical.

Do you get a boner every time you mention the Western Overton window?
Yes
