What’s funny is that there was a person here who was simping for Milei, constantly posting articles (often from unreliable sources) to talk about how great he is until they were temporarily banned for doing it and hasn’t been back since. I kind of wish they came back for this, except they never commented.
…and that is the problem with banning people for their views… sooner or later an echo chamber becomes boring. And they too will probably go elsewhere, where their views will go unchallenged as well. Fast forward a few years and everyone becomes ever more convinced of their own sectarian “truths”.
Unless he was particularly obnoxious about it, don’t know the story 🤷🏻♂️
They were banned for repeatedly posting from unreliable sources, or just outright Milei mouthpieces, to push their agenda after being warned to stop. See rule 3.
Also, as I said, it was a temporary ban. I think a week.
Ooph, there the same issue again, about what we consider “propaganda”. I have yet to meet someone with objective standards on this, who is able to hold people he agrees with politically to the same standard. Many on here also seem to hate the MBFC ratings that were added to at least create some baseline. So, at the end of the day the value judgements people make on these matters are more often biased than not. Anyway, I am actually interested in even “mouthpieces”, as I am always curious how the other side actually defends what they do, and they could be just marked as such for the avoidance of doubt.

Okay, well you’re welcome to not consider state mouthpieces to be unreliable sources, but they are considered to be here.
That is not what I said, but ok, let’s leave it at this :)
