    Yeah, a 10 day old website with almost zero online fingerprints, built using the most generic layout that seems to just repost news from other sources… that doesn’t look shady at all, any reasonable person would assume it’s a totally reliable source of information.

    You could have just posted the link to the actual sources. Digging your heels in and attacking me for calling that out isn’t making you look any better.

      Give up. OP is a Russian who’s made it their life mission to pollute Lemmy with garbage 24/7

      So your complaints are that a site having legitimate information with primary sources is… new and has a bad layout. And you’re accusing me of digging in my heels while making a clown of yourself here?

        That was a lame attempt at straw man. Go read my comments again, read slower this time.

          Maybe follow your own advice. The only criticisms you’ve made of the site is that it’s new and you don’t like the layout. You did not make any substantial criticisms of the actual content. The fact that you don’t see what an utter clown you are is hilarious.

            1. The site is a low effort Wordpress instance pretending to be a news website (very common in disinformation)
            2. The site is roughly 10 days old (young instances are also common in disinformation websites)
            3. There is no article author, for a “news” website… wow, what journalistic integrity. (Also common in disinfo websites)
            4. The only online footprint that exists for the website is is a few very new social media accounts that use the same name (also, very common in disinfo websites).
            5. It’s not “one thing”, it’s a combination of multiple things that add pile up to make the site look shady.

            Now, I’ll assume you’re working with troglodyte levels of internet literacy and won’t immediately assume your actual goal is trying to spread questionable news sources. But to be honest, your replies make it challenging to give you the benefit of the doubt. Because I’m assuming you made a poor judgement call and a shared shady site in a science community, I’d like to take this time to recommend you swing by the local community college and take an introduction to internet course, maybe swing by a high school and sit in on a media literacy class.

            If you’re going to try and straw man and attempt to insult, please do it with more creativity. If you won’t post credible links, at least have some originality in your comments.

            But please, take those internet and media literacy courses before you try regurgitating more insults you’ve read online. If I’m going to argue with you I would like you to at least have a baseline for what a questionable “news” website looks like. Frankly I don’t have the energy to teach you something you should have learned in grade 9.

              More vague FUD, not actual criticism of the content. You keep making baseless arguments and expect people to take you seriously. It’s always hilarious to watch how internet illiterate people behave online.

              The reality of the situation is that I posted a link to a factually accurate article that lists primary sources from credible institutions. You haven’t even bother acknowledging this fact in all your ranting while bleating about some supposed “misinformation”.

                I could almost applaud the effort you’re exerting in defending such a questionable looking website if it wasn’t so sad.

                Next time post the original sources, you post like a grandparent emails. It’s the equivalent of emails with a bunch of “fwd…” embedded them.

                If you think posting a shady website and asking people to “please click the credible links in this unreliable ‘news’ website” is a good argument… buddy, you’re more of an idiot than I thought.

                    Again, more lack of creativity on your part 🥱. Maybe go take an improv class. It might help your creativity, it would also do you some good to get out of the house for a bit.
