A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

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.

Based on the discussion here it seems rhe damage is already done

That's clearly the point for articles like this to even be written. There's no defense for a title like that when it's referring to something from a month ago that wasn't even enacted.

A lie travels halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on.

Since that quote was written long before the Internet, the lie has now been round the world 20 times and has multiple reaction videos before the truth can even find its boots.
