Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

So the patient killed his or her frozen embryos and now they're suing the clinic for wrongful death of a minor. Makes sense on so many levels.
This patient killed three other couple's embryos, not their own. The clinic is being sued and I assume (can't find confirmation) that this patient is also getting sued.
Ahh, thanks, I misread. It's still fucking stupid.
No, that is not what the article says.
I would recommend reading an article before trying to come to conclusions about what it means.
I would recommend not being rude and assuming that people are speaking in good faith when it's obviously clear that they misread something.
How does the saying goes? Don't assume malice when competence could be a factor?
Says nothing about being an idiot skimming an article and latching onto the first paragraph that aligns to what they want to read.
This is further than just "misreading".
It may be time to realign yourself on what’s rude.
It may be time to align yourself with the concept for the first time.
Haha, ya zinged me! Have a good one :)
