“How about we all come together and say ‘let’s stop attacking pedophiles,’” he said.
Not sure why they put a “must” in the headline. Apparently proof-reading is optional at the independent.
Prolly ai generated nonsense
I mean that’s like the one thing LLMs are good at. They’re not gonna have “let’s” and compute “must” as the next token.
I bet someone wrote “we must stop” and then checked the quote and “fixed” it. Aka stupid meatbag shit.
No, it’s just that the news media doesn’t pay sub-editors any more.
I surprised they didn’t just copy and paste it? Or maybe the article used to have that typo but I find that less likely.
Yes, the article headline itself had the typo. They have fixed it now.
@[email protected] edit the title so you don’t look like a goober! 💜💜
Thanks! Fixed
“gaffe” implies he has mad some attempt to backtrack or present a corrected sentence. He said it.
Journalism is so cooked
FYI, “Gaffe” doesn’t imply he has made an attempt to backtrack. It’s just a blatant mistake or faux pas.
I am as illiterate as I accuse others of being 😔😔😔
I think you’re actually right in what you mean though.
“Gaffe” implies he’s embarrassed. There’s no way he’s embarrassed, he’s incapable of feeling real human emotions.
He’s capable of the just human emotion of all, greed
I still don’t know what word he actually intended to use there instead, unless he was trying to normalize the concept of accepting pedophiles.
Stop attacking republicans, it’s an easy slip to make.
I guess “attacking” was supposed to be “protecting”.
Fair, that does make sense, and at least fits with other things he’s said.
