What is this site? How is this a reputable news source?

[–] SatanicNotMessianic@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 year ago

No it is not.

Rumble is the truth social of video, and in fact also runs the cloud service that hosts truth social.

There might be a less reputable source for information, but I can’t think of one.

Ridiculously unreputable

Rumble. Seriously dude?

I came here from reddit and even that dump has more credibility than fucking Rumble. /s

But seriously, Rumble is a fucking wasteland of Q, Alpha simps, MAGA, racist, terrified of women, and worse place for video content. It's largely where if you are banned everywhere else you go there.

My brother listens to this trash and I have to listen to it sometimes. It's basically word for word what Putin and the Kremlin say with an American dude presenting it as fact.

Doesn't it tell you something that people get banned just for reporting the news? I don't see anything wrong with the video and yet YouTube doesn't allow their content.

[–] BURN@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When they’re reporting objectively false facts as news, yes they should be banned.

Any examples? I think you are just making an assumption.

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Oh, shit! Joe Biden is being shown with a grainy black and white filter, so you know it's serious.

OP has about as much veracity as Project Veritas. Lies and misinformation from head to toe. I'd suggest people just block the troll (or poor misguided fool) as I am doing right now.

FDA approves suicidal drugs

People are already killing themselves, this is just government regulation catching up.

[–] Veritas@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The story is actually about a drug for recent mothers who apparently increases suicide tendencies.

[–] CaptainFlintlockFinn@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think you’re talking about the new medication approved to treat postpartum depression.

Increased risk of suicidal thoughts and actions is a very commonly listed side effect of a great deal of antidepressant medications. That’s why you’re supposed to be closely supervised when you start them and report any oddities to your doctor asap.

So it doesn’t increase suicidal tendencies across the board, only in those who are susceptible to that side effect.
