Why do people look for clickbait headlines when the news is political?
  • Because passive language can be biased to.

    Say someone speeds, ignores a red light and runs over a cyclist, which headline is more biased?

    Fatal crash at xy intersection, collision between car and bicycle.

    Irresponsible driver kills cyclist at xy intersection.

  • Anon takes the horsepill
  • But anyways, animal farts come from preexisting carbon in the biosphere. Car farts come from extracting previously sequestered carbon. So without extractive processes, and with ethical land use/management, the atmospheric methane wouldn't have a significant impact.

    Methane is 81x worse that CO2 over 20 Years, so if it came from atmospheric carbon it's only 80x as bad.

  • 'Hamas entered UNRWA and took everything,' Gazan staffer says
  • Wasn't that near the Israel-Lebanon border? Those are blue helmet soldiers coming from many nations to observe that the border is not crossed.
    UNRWA is a civil organization largely staffed by Palestinians to provide necessities like food and schools to the Palestinians.

    Let's not mix up the crimes Israel commits.

  • Americans in Puerto Rico can't vote for US president. Their anger at Trump is shaping the race
  • No, that can't be right, because half the comments here say it's due to racism.

    Both those things are true, racists prevent it from becoming a state to prevent it from voting dem.

    So if a Puerto Rican moves to a US state, they still can't vote, right?

    They can't do this directly anymore, so they are just disenfranchised on Puerto Rico.

  • Add to the list of instances opened in app

    Sometimes I come across links to communities or posts on instances that are not in the list of links the app recognizes as lemmy. Instead they open a browser tab. Given lemmys growing and decentralized nature it's unreasonable to expect devs to keep up with that. Please enable users to add to that ever growing list, at least for their own account. I understand that such a feature is may be far in the backlog or may never come at all, in the meantime I would be happy if you added the feddit.org domain to the list as feddit.de seems to be migrating there.

    Workaround: Apparently it works with the ! community @ instance links like [email protected] but not normal links feddit.org/c/ich_iel
