Please do not post comments that do not engage with the arguments raised in the video. Not just it's clickbait-y title. Further low-effort responses will be removed
I don't necessarily think the title was click-baity, to be honest. It's a pretty honest assessment of the content of the video.
It's a bit inflammatory perhaps, but only because the facts are so far out of step with the beliefs of the car-brained way most Australians have been brought up to think.
That aside, thanks for trying to keep the tone here better. Some of the low-effort comments here were quite disappointing to read.
The annoying thing is the Lemmy API has been changed to not return the child comments of a removed comment. It's really annoying because sometimes (like this) I get in too late and there's a comment that should be removed but there's a good discussion following it (rarely with the original commenter). I'll create an issue at some point unless they've already fixed it
It always amuses me when people downvote moderator warnings. I'll take it to mean that you don't want civil and respectful discussions to occur and just want to engage in some flame war. If you would like to see some changes, feel free to let me know
