How many goddamn wars over this do we need - Lemmy.World

Well the US was very much in love with the nazi party until it became politically inexpedient. Then they pretended they never were but didn’t actually change anything
Have anything to back that up?
You’re kidding, right? I mean that very sincerely, this is incredibly well documented

Teen Vogue as a resource? Seriously?

The article seems to summarize events concisely and provides links to outside references. We really shouldn’t turn our nose up to any outlet trying to share information. Even if an outlet tends to be sensationalist we should pay attention to each article as they may be breaking a story, provide more research paths, or give an insight from a point of view we miss.

With that being said I know nothing of Vogue or TeenVogue. However you never know when someone cry’s “wolf” if it is the real deal unless you look.

you never know when someone cries “wolf” if it is the real deal unless you look.

Do you seriously not remember the point of that story? It’s that people will stop believing you if you continually cry wolf, regardless if there is a wolf or not. That’s a cautionary tale for the kid/liar, not for the town to ALWAYS check if there is a wolf or not.

Teen Vogue has an incentive to be sensationalist. They failed as a beauty magazine around 2015, so they pivoted online to these kinds of articles, but they’re still a sensationalist magazine. The article itself still has anti-semitic undertones while arguing against American Nazis. Want to know which noun the article uses to follow ‘Jewish’ the most often? ‘Gangster’ - 10 times ‘Mobster’ - Twice But also, ‘Organized crime’, ‘mobs’, ‘underworld’, ‘radicals’, and ‘gangs’. - Each used once.

That’s not a glowing review of impartiality. They might get some facts correct, but the damage they cause along the way isn’t worth it. If you want to use their articles as a jumping-off-point, that’s fine, but don’t use them directly - use their links and sources instead.

Oh I remember the story quite well. I just read it to my kids. Yes there is the responsibility of the kid to not lie, but it also the responsibility of the town to check it out even if wolf has been called several times before. The sheep feed the town, not just the child. There are multiple morals of the story.

I’ll admit I quickly read through the article and just scanned for key points and followed the linked articles, some of which were no longer valid links. The point I was trying to make was not in the defense of Vogue themselves but in the defense of news outlets that are often ignored.

I appreciate you reading the article and providing your insight into the author’s bias. I did not wish to start an argument and I apologize if I offended.
