Well, yes, if it's being touted as "breaking news" I absolutely do care that it's 8 months old.
I can guarantee you I am NOT the only one that has an issue with all the bogus "Breaking News!" that's just months or years old regurgitated dreck.
If you think it's interesting enough to pass on , that's fine. Do so. But make a note to tell people "Hey, I know this says "Breaking News!", but it's actually from ::insert whenever it's from here:" but I thought it would be a good idea to refresh this for ::insert whatever here::
Just because I'm the first person here, pointing out that this is NOT Breaking news doesn't mean no one else has an issue with it.
There's a whole lot of reasons why intellectual honesty matters and why misrepresenting info damages our credibility with normies, who, if you remember, we're supposed to be redpilling. And we aren't going to redpill people who think we're either liars, or that we don't pay attention to important news and don't realize that something is almost a year old, or that we just don't care about facts.
And I have not been "coming after you". I've been trying to figure out why we constantly have this issue with people constantly passing on "Breaking News!" that's months or years old. I've actually been trying very hard to be as gentle with you as possible over this, very gently steering you into better ways to check if a post is BS or not other than tediously scrolling through weeks and weeks of posts to see if someone had already posted about it or not. Now, if you want to see what me "coming after you" actually looks like, I can take the kids gloves off and put the boxing gloves on. Would you rather I do that?
The fact that you don't understand why this type of thing is problematic is troubling. It really, really is. And the fact that this has to be explained to you is troubling as well.
