  • The post title is an exact and faithful copy of the linked article, though. There’s no editorializing here.

    That’s one of my points. They could have changed the title of the Lemmy post (like what is done MOST of the time around here) to not match the subject of the article but instead be accurate for us Lemmy readers, and not just duplicate the same/wrong title. The “editorializing” in this case is the NOT correcting of the title in the Lemmy post.

    So either the person who posted here on Lemmy didn’t read the article they posted about, or they decided to purposely carry forward the invalid title from the article, after having read the article. (Or, this is just an astroturfing article and we are all wasting our time commenting here.)

  • From the article …

    On March 23rd, as Mr Imamoglu was being moved to a maximum-security prison on the city’s outskirts, the opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) staged a primary election to confirm him as its candidate in the next presidential elections, scheduled for 2028. It was open to all voters, not just CHP members. The party said 15m Turks took part.

    … and …

    Meral, a housewife, joined the protests with her daughter, a university student. “This is not about Imamoglu or the CHP,” she says. “This is because our right to vote and to be elected is being taken away.”




  • From the article …

    “What’s happening, it seems to me, is they’re being fed propaganda by the far left, and they believe it. It’s really unfortunate,” Musk continued, claiming that the “real problem” isn’t the “crazy guy” who attacks his vehicles but rather the people that push the “propaganda” that encourages him to do it.

    “Those are the real villains here, and we’re going to go after them,” the DOGE chief warned. “The president has made it clear, we’re going to go after them.”

    “The ones providing the money, the ones pushing the lies and propaganda? We’re going after them,” Musk said, casually pointing his fingers in the shape of a gun.







  • Would be nice if it could be set as some kind of post / comment metadata, hidden from view but there in the code.

    I’d love that, if it would be legally respected by corporations/scrapers. I even mention my license intention for my content in my bio here on Lemmy as well. It would save me allot of hassle arguing with others as well.

    Until then, I have to embed the license in the content itself, especially while the new AI law is just starting to sort out these issues.

    Like putting your sexual kinks in a email signature or telling everyone who didn’t ask that you’re vegan.
    (quoting another person, not the one I’m directly replying to)

    But honestly people, if you are being bothered by a simple link in a comment, that is allowed on Lemmy, then you really need to look within. If your client of choice is not displaying subscripted fonts correctly, and hence the text/link looks worse than it should, then you really need to speak with the devs of the client about that (as I mentioned in my ‘FAQ’ link, I’m using official Lemmy.World formatting). And if you don’t like seeing a license in general, then I can’t help you with that one, except for maybe giving some ‘touch grass’ advice (especially to the person I quoted above).
