No because it becomes memory-holed. Then if you saw the article earlier, you may think it was true, then it disappears. By adding the SHITPOST and leaving the fake thing up, not only do you signal to others that it was a fake story, but you also help show people who haven't heard the story yet that it is fake. Much better to mark it and leave it up so people can see.
Yes exactly. Theoretically resource for whatever debunking happened would be in the comments themselves so that’s why it is important to not delete it so that other people can follow that source and see why and how it was debunked. In case they want to debunk the debunking lol
Deleting is much easier.

Yeah I totally agree but I don’t think they have that flare. It’s actually somewhat suspicious that they don’t.
Deleting makes it so nobody can see the comments.
And how much harder is it to click the Flair button on the post and label it Shitpost? Kek.
