I don't think it works that way

It does.

The other OP headlines are worse

That's irrelevant. Things don't magically go from bad to good just because a worse version of the same thing exists.

they directly imply the "pre-emptive" claim is true, as opposed to indirectly implying it by choosing to reference the perspective of the IDF.

Only difference is how sneaky they are about it. The bias they're deliberately trying to spread is the same.

Quality of journalism isn't a binary based on whether it is propagandizing for the correct side.

Yet another thing I never said or even implied. If you want anyone to take you seriously, it would behoove you to put away the strawmen.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Their incorrect point. Now leave me alone like I told you several times already.

But that wasn't a strawman argument like you accused them of...? I don't understand why you think you should be able to harass people but then yourself be free from even polite criticism, even in the replies to a comment thread where someone may genuinely not notice your username (sorry) in a connected thread 8 comments away.
