2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

I had never heard of this person before a few days ago.
I’ve heard of him for years and have ignored him from the start. He always just seemed like a giant douche canoe.
I think douchecanoe is technically one word
Look at this douchecanoe sailing up in his douche canoe.
Nice. Am on mobile though.
It's still one word even on mobile.
I'll let you take up the battle against auto correct if you think it worth the effort. I'll put my energies somewhere else.
I want to pronounce it "doosh-kay-noh", like volcano.
EDIT: just realised that posting while drowsy leads to spelling mistakes.
Fuck, now I can’t unsee this.
Yeah you don’t want a hole in your douchecanoe.
I believe I only know of him because I have a teenager. I watch Youtube a lot and he's never on my feed.
Cool
Same, I don't follow anyone on YT, I rarely watch YT anyway
Hello Hello
I have a disability which makes watching youtube impossible anyways lol
