I downvoted and I'm not angry. I just recognize that this post is intentionally inflammatory and trolling. As is common from OP.

Why is it inflammatory? As a mod I'm genuinely surprised people are upset by this, it is a white house press statement with an editorialized title that summarizes the event quickly and without any commentary on it.

You said it in your reply. An editorialized title--an extremely editorialized title, which was clearly crafted specifically to garner outrage.

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

I dont see it garnering outrage? It seems in line with what Kamala Harris said.

Posting news in a news comm of a presidential speech that is literally a link to the official government website of that president is "intentionally inflammatory and trolling"? This is a joke, right? You're doing a bit and playing a caricature of a typical lib clown?

It's the title that is inflammatory and trolling. Do you really not understand that editorializing is a thing?

[–] LemmeAtEm@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Do you really not understand that titling any fucking post ever is doing the same thing? Fucking clown.

If the title was a NYT headline with two words changed: "Kamala Harris makes an official statement in condemnation of political terrorism" you wouldn't be clutching your pearls, now would you? OP's title is far more factual though, and that's what you actually don't like. You people are so transparent it's laughable.

You sound ridiculous.
