It’s just their site using fixed size for headers. The actual image is: https://demstate.com/api/image/article-images/1458480018_63558/charlie-kirks-alleged-killer-2957fa77.jpg

So back to my original comment, why does this feature exist in this horrible implementation?

I don’t much care for microblogging, but it seems that eveyone would be better without this useless addition.

It defeats the point of quote posts. Why would I quote someone if they can render my whole post dead by removing the context if they don’t like what I said? It effectively makes only “acceptable” positive and praising quote posts to be allowed.

I think people who are not comfortable to be quoted should restrain from public posting in general or quote posting should be instance level flag instead of user toggle to not ruin quote posts for everyone while giving those people an option to opt out.

Take Lemmy or PieFed. Analogous example would be if someone made a comment on a post and then had back and forth with another person. But the person who made the first comment had ability to hide all the other responses in the thread to hide the context of that discussion.

Good idea, horrible implementation.

Authors can remove their post if they’re uncomfortable with the way you’ve quoted them.

So people will continue to attaching screenshots because their whole posts can’t be rendered contextless without their input.

It’s not about blocking, it’s about getting payed for scraped content if you are too small to negotiate your own deal. But it’s not enforcable since it relies on the same honor system as robots.txt.

Kirk was an ardent opponent of gun control. Speaking after the 2023 mass shooting at the Christian Covenant School in Nashville, which killed six people including children, Kirk said that mass shooting deaths were unfortunately “worth it” to preserve Second Amendment rights in the US.

Add search field to community sidebar is the best thing ever!

While I denounce violence, you won’t see me crying for this piece of shit.

You are partly right. Only content was reported before, actual letter was not.

I feel like she got taken in by Nancy Pelosi’s bullshit and while her positions are mostly pro-worker she lacks insticts to counter the establishment bullshit and tries to moderate herself because of that. Losing strategy, but oh well.

They literally have dedicated staff for US region. They also have another domain https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/dallas-mom-paralyzed-tree-fell-b2816148.html.

Indeed. Even if he ends up a traitor it’s still better to take the chance than maintaining the fucked up status quo.

Well yeah, if you can’t firmly stand for your positions you are nothing.

Tricare usually deals with active duty members, but they can be referred to VA in which case it would apply.

In a non-fascist country lying to a court would land you in jail.

No argument from me. I don’t even bother visiting news sites anymore. RSS reader is the only way to go.

Based on their RSS feed every 5-10 minutes.

Ha, good one. They prefer to blame everyone else.

The DNC, the New York Times reported, will “mostly steer clear of the decisions made by the Biden-turned-Harris campaign and will focus more heavily instead on actions taken by allied groups.”

Does Mbin have public RSS feed for !mbinReleases@gehirneimer.de? From Lemmy side the generated one (https://gehirneimer.de/feeds/m/mbinReleases.xml?sort=New) is invalid.

When I last checked https://joinmbin.org/ it had no public feed, so I had fallback to GitHub releases.
