Commented on a post with the most recent (non-Breitbart) headline and updates. Added this with 3 independent sources:

FYI, Breitbart is a far-right, low-quality source.

Media Bias Fact Check

Media Bias Chart

AllSides

Mod apparently didn’t like a more reputable source being added to their post because it was removed in minutes lol.

reason: Rule 6 Violation

Rule 6: Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

Just admit you want an echo chamber to spread disinformation and promote biased articles! Using this rule to police sources is very thinly-veiled censorship…

    PTB. Any community that allows Breitbart and its ilk should be avoided and removed. Absolutely nothing they publish is in good faith, factual, or otherwise. It’s right-wing rage porn, nothing more, nothing less.

    Edited to remain on-topic.

      Agreed, but I was more diplomatic, simply pointing out the bias and the quality rating from multiple independent sources… Nope, immediately removed by the mod!
