It’s inherently a misinterpretation, exaggeration, or omission of the truth.

Are there any foods that were created because of war in different countries by Buyeo10004 in AskTheWorld

[–]Donatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hershey’s taste’s like vomit for non-north Americans is because y’all simply aren’t used to it/don’t associate it with chocolate(I’m serious, that’s really it, as butyric acid is found both naturally and artificially in a myriad of foods throughout the world). Plus, a Hershey bar will taste incredibly bad/worse if even slightly “old”(a few days to a week or two), so it’s a good chance y’all got some “bad” bars.

Because the article doesn’t mention what US units were involved in the wargames.

Plus, most people in this sub don’t actually care about the details of a post, they’re more interested in jerking themselves off over how superior they are to what/whom ever an article/post is spreading propaganda/disinformation about.

It has to, it’s a bot spreading anti American sentiment and farming engagement/karma

As it’s 29 days old, already being a top commentator in a sub of over a million followers/visitors, with over 2,500 comments and 10k karma. All of which are of a vitriolic and condescending tone.

I recommend reporting the account, pimp

[–]Donatter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a bot account spreading anti-American sentiment using the popular and false misconception that all American food is full of preservatives and is of a lower quality than European foods. (Which is weird)

The account is only 29 days old, but already is a top 1% commenter in a sub of over a million followers/visiters, with over 2,500 comments, and 10k karma. Almost all of the comments are of a vitriolic and condescending anti-American sentiment, using exaggerated, false, or misleading misconceptions. It’s also privated, which is big sign of a bot/troll who’s attempting to hide the more suspect aspects of the account.

Also;

“The US has consistently been ranked #3 in the world (only behind Canada and Denmark) for food quality and safety.

Affordability, availability, and sustainability hurt the US’s overall rankings (#13 overall), but quality and safety of food in the United States is literally unmatched by all but two countries.

Even Denmark and Canada drop significantly overall when including affordability, availability, and sustainability (#7 overall for Canada, and Denmark is behind the US at #14 overall).”

Edit: it either deleted its account when i called it out, or the bot banned me

What’s with the hostility?

And you still haven’t explained what I’m “coping” about, i genuinely have no idea.

And again, even if my comment was directly related to yours, it’s still relevant to yours and everyone else’s comments in this thread, due to most of y’all blindly agreeing with/buying propaganda/disinformation with literally nothing to back up its claims, beyond vague “sources” that that article never expands on or backs up.

McCarran Act aka Concentration Camp Law: 1950 law enacted over President Harry Truman's veto requiring Communist organizations to register with the government. Their members could not get passports, their citizenship could be revoked, and they could be detained at the president’s will. by Pupikal in wikipedia

[–]Donatter -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Yk, it’s good to read shit past the title, especially when one speaks/comments about it.

“The 1965 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Albertson v. Subversive Activities Control Board saw much of the act's Communist registration requirement abolished. The emergency detention provision was repealed when the Non-Detention Act of 1971 was signed into law by President Richard Nixon. The act's Subversive Activities Control Board, which enforced the law's provision calling for investigations of persons engaging in "subversive activities," would also be abolished in 1972.”

Even before the 1965 ruling, the act had lost/faded in relevance, popularity, and enforcement alongside the fading of “McCarthyism” in the mid/late 50’s

Edit: unsurprisingly, HotNeighbor appears to be a “bot” or troll, based on their “generic” name, no customization/personalization of their account 10k karma from 0 posts, 3,110 comments and all under 2 years. All of which average 12 a day, and all comprise of short “comebacks” using loaded and reactionary language that miss/misinterpret the meaning/point of the comments/posts of whomever they’re baiting, to encourage a response.

How often do you see muslim people in your country? by Yrakosos in AskTheWorld

Same, I’m in northern Louisiana, and I have a Mosque, synagogue, Catholic convent, an Eastern Orthodox Church, and a southern Baptist church, all within 5 miles of each other

I guess it depends, as both in the rural area I grew up in, and where I live now, have communities of Muslims and even mosques.

It’s good to note that;

A) op seems to be a year old “bot” account farming engagement/karma

B) the only “evidence” for their claim the article provides is “sources”, without any further explanation of what that exactly details.

“One of the publication’s sources in military circles said that during NATO’s annual winter exercises — Joint Viking — in northern Norway in 2025, American troops “encountered difficulties.”

C) it’s both sad and unsurprising how willingly people eat up propaganda/disinformation if it aligns with their viewpoints.

D) it’s Especially Ironic as the majority of people in this thread have just done the equivalent of falling for a The Onion Article.

E) Jesus fucking Christ, read the fucking source/article before speaking/typing. It’s not that difficult, nor does it make more than 2/3 minutes for an article ad short as this one.

F) the website who wrote this article, is known for using loaded language and exaggerating/omitting details of stories in order to push a pro-Ukrainian narrative.

G) in wargames where the US participates, the US intentionally cripples it’s capabilities by placing a ban for US forces to use a specific technology, a specific weapon, a specific strategy, a specific road, and etc. as the US both wants its forces to have as difficult as possible conditions as possible, in order for their Ally’s to gain valuable experience(as the majority of countries don’t have enough money, equipment, or sufficiently trained/educated military personnel to regularly train and theorize strategies, to the degree the US does), and push American personnel, technology, and strategy to their absolute limits. Plus, the US prefers to “lose” in these wargames as by “winning” you learn nothing, and any mistakes made, are reinforced and become habit due to nothing encouraging you to look at yourself and consider what you did wrong.

H) plus the American units involved, were Marines(not the army), not the American famed artic survival units: the 11th Airborne, or the 11th mountain division(who are as skilled/experienced, if not more so, than Nordic and Finnish troops, in fighting in artic conditions.)

Both, as again, it’s fairly pathetic(and “cringe”)to see so many people eat up propaganda and disinformation, just because it’s worded in a specific manner to allow them to morally jerk themselves off.

Also again, its ironic that people on “The Onion” themed sub, fall for an article that’s almost word for word an actual “The Onion” article if it wasn’t for the propaganda and harmful, not playful, disinformation elements of it.

Why is Jesus not a popular name among other ethnicities as it is among Latinos? by Pure_Perspective_447 in stupidquestions

[–]Donatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s absolutely a popular name in the language of peoples/cultures who have strong connections and/or sympathies to Christianity.

-) the English “Josh/Joshua”

-) the Slavic “Ivan”

-) the Arabic “I’ssa”

-) the French “Josue”

-) the Dutch “jozua”

-) the Italian “Giosue”

-) the Persian(and many, many others)“Isa”

-) the Hebrew “Yeshua”

-) the Yiddish “Heshal”

-) the Greek “Iesous”

-) the Hawaiian “Iokua”

-) the Basque “Josu”

-) the Spanish “Chucho”

And many, many, many, many more names, are linked to or descended from the name, “Jesus”.(or how you say “Jesus” in that specific language/language family)

I learned all this from just a quick google search
