This really annoys me, especially on Reddit r/conservative and r/conspiracy subreddits are full of images. Not even images of articles, but just images of headlines. And you have massive discussions about it
Another popular thing is a screenshot of a tweet, most often posted by a complete nobody.
I enjoy the replies… You’ll have AOC, Elon, Trump etc make some statement… And then Rando McRando will have a reply back to them.
Like bruh(ette)… no way in the world do these celebrities with massive followers read your reply… it just falls into the void that is the 99+ for notifications
Tell that to all the people Trump blocks non stop lol.
Don’t kid yourself for people like him who love the limelight and go on to egosurf.
to be fair conversation has always been this way and newspapers have alwaya been this way
just anybody can do it now
Sure, but with picture of a headline you need to put an extra effort (sometimes it is not easy) to find and read the actual article.
okay niw imagine a world without internet
In that world you were looking at pictures of newspapers?
yea
Repetition … all the time, every where and every place
Do it enough times and you can convince people to embrace Satan himself.
That reminds me of this study I read that anyone will believe anything that looks like a screenshot of a reputable news article.
I don’t believe this, have you got a reliable source?

Haahahahaha it’s by Goht chu. Which means penis in Korean. (고추)
I love me some nice hot penis sauce (고추장).
All of you have now read a legit study that you can tell your friends about.
This makes me wonder what would happen if you took the content off some celebrity-focused website like say TMZ but changed the formatting to make it look like New York Times articles.
Like, the “gravitas” of the NY Times politics section with content like “Guess Whose Shirtless Selfie!”
Who are you calling You People?..
If it aligns with your political stance that is
Got as far as “you people” before I realized it was BS. Think they forgot the “reputable” part of their own claim… 'cause this ain’t it.
I believe it.
Don’t worry though, this won’t take effect until 2032ish
