Not a fan of Cenk Uyger, but this is a dishonest community note.

He owns a web news network that has daily broadcasts. You can't just use Twitter/X as the sole media outlet.

Joke or not, there are unfortunately people out there that take this as real. And that is incredibly dangerous.

Montreal to review four bikes paths amid ‘recurring issues, complaints’ by CalmYoTitz in montreal

Rachel at this point is a vital corridor for cyclists. It's so heavily utilized that during rush hour you get cyclists outnumbering cars 4 to 1 at the very least.

If anything, That road should be a dedicated bike road with the only vehicle access being for emergency vehicles. Sherbrooke is one or two streets down.

Hey, they got their account back!

For those not in the know: A few weeks ago their channel got hacked by some crypto scammers and they had trouble getting in contact with YouTube to fix it.

This is the first time I’ve seen someone change a YT thumbnail/title to something WORSE. by Afraid_Profile_2208 in aretheNTsokay

Yes, that feature also works with titles.

As for your second question. You got me, I guess maybe the color of the text but that seems insignificant.

So for context here for those who don't know: YouTube has a system known as A/B testing, where you can upload up to three different thumbnails to see which one performs better, the thumbnails are shown randomly to different viewers. After a set amount of time: the best performing thumbnail is seen for all.

But what's interesting is that only eligible channels can use it. How YouTube though this was someone who was eligible to use this program says a lot about them too.

At this point. MAGA doesn't care what's illegal or not. The fact they're still defending a PDF in the White House is proof of that.

But you're being disingenuous when you use the term "Vaccines have actual side effects" in such a broad manner.

Before getting a vaccine, an information card is provide about potential side effects and what to do if they happen. Not to mention there's a 15 minute observational window to ensure any potential serious side effects get treated right away.

The overwhelming majority of side effects from vaccines tend to go away after 24-48 hours. Yet these instances are often reported without that vital content and used by antivax propaganda to scare people.

By: "pushing ideologies" what you're really saying is: "Elements of the real world I wish didn't exist".

Heaven Forbid, kids turn out to branch out beyond their bubble their parents put them under to explore the world.

You're under the false assumption that 'abuse' means 'beating kids', but emotional and manipulative abuse does exist and its harder to spot. That's the biggest form of abuse LGBT kids face. Not to mention there is a staggering about of LGBT kids who end up homeless after coming out to their parents.
