Note:

I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!

    Yes. Because the article exists as a tuple of both the title and the content, and the title dominates. The title poisons the article

      I think the truth dies only if you don’t read the full article in this case, as is expected of people before posting here…

        I can’t believe most people are reading the article before commenting in lemmy

        But even supposing they do, all the people who scroll past the article in the feed, are being poisoned by the lie in the title

          I don’t believe that either, which is why I sometimes ask them if they have.

          Sadly one cannot force anyone to read… one can only expect others to do it.
