Listen, jackass. Maybe I don’t want to identify myself to CNN or anything else.
I run GrapheneOS, I run Fennec and Tor constantly. I have a VPN running. Why the actual fuck should I bother to log into CNN to see some shit-ass article when the culture of Lemmy is to be what Reddit is NOT.
I know where I’m at, which is why I’m surprised you expect people who actually contribute posts to cater to you so much. That’s peak reddit entitlement.
FFS, Can we please link to non pay walled articles? This is lemmy, not reddit.

So, fuck off with your “fuck off” statement.
This is Lemmy, not Reddit.
I see your “fuck off” and and raise you 3 “eat shits” and one “go fuck yourself”

The fun thing about lemmy is you get to know all the assholes by name. I’ve met that cob a few times now.
