Please read the article if you don't like to read the quotes

I read the article and also couldn't find a link to the source

[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The article states:

...he posted on his social media.

It takes a little bit of critical thinking if there isn't a hyperlink to click on. His social media refers to Truth Social.

Still no link provided to the source content.

You're not that good at the whole critical thinking part of things, are ya?

[–] delirious_owl@discuss.online -3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

What? That's exactly my criticism of others. Everyone upvoting this trash content is apparently OK with unverifiable claims from incredible sources who don't cite their sources for quotes.

Critical thinking is literally what I'm trying to teach and increase in our communities.

The quote is entirely verifiable. You know how, so does everyone. Whining because people won't spoonfeed you a link is pathetic.

Its not spoonfeeding to follow basic best practices in journalism.

A nonsensical statement that doesn't describe anything at issue here.
