Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

- Article must be related to Politicians, Nation-states, Electoralism, or International Relations
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (perjorative, perjorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (perjorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect!

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Hmm, why would a "blog" be a source for fact checkers? Someone ought to tell them they're sourcing propaganda. And maybe someone should tell Brookings that too.
The rest of your opinion is just... Your opinion. Your personal disapproval of mbfc means nothing. Unless you have another highly reputable source that supports your claim about mbfc, I'm gonna stop listening. It's simply an attempt to silence information you personally disagree with and would not like to have discussion around. You offer no evidence to support your doubt of mbfc but your own anecdotal experience. They're a widely accepted trustworthy source, even as described by their competitors.
You attack the source and not the information. This article describes a take on how this punishment may not lead to peace. No one is "discounting" anything, I don't even understand how you'd get that from what I'd said, since you're saying I discounted something.
Seems like a lot of users here want this article to say what they desire, but can't find any way to quote where it says that.
