This your source?

I am not trying to start a debate about that image again. But it’s a poly market affiliate, and I would consider the source a junk source. Have any better ones?

That is why I literally said doubt it. Did you bother to read what I said? But wanted to post it in case it did turn out to be something. I didn't bother or care enough to dig further. Much bigger things going on than whatever the hell Trump is saying/tweeting at 9pm at night & weather he meant it or was taken out of context.

Don't like it? Then why don't you find out where this is coming from and post yourself.

Arabic numerals (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) are the universally used, base-10 digits developed in ancient India, refined by Arab mathematicians who introduced them to Europe, making complex calculations easier than with Roman numerals.

My point was it’s a bad source and figured it’s good to point that out, instead of leaving a bad source unchallenged.

Why I posted it here, and again said "doubt it". I already openly challenged it. If you really want to help then find out yourself and post it. Instead of barking. I've already said I don't care enough too.

I was calling out the source. That’s ofc relevant to geopolitical analysis.

I think it does help to call out a bad source and if you don’t like that DONT POST BAD SOURCES. The source is a PRIMARY thing to interrogate when it comes to geopolitical news.
 
This topic has been exhausted and derailed. Thread is closed . Move on.
I have been asked in priv to comment on this, so here's my personal opinion:
  • When posting any piece of news, you should cite the source.
  • You would do well to cite primary sources (look it up), not retweets of retweets.
  • Ultimately, your reputation as a news aggregator rests upon the reliability of your sources. Reputation takes a long time to build, and is easily destroyed.
  • If you have a habit of relying on bad sources then people are perfectly fine - and in fact, advised to - automatically distrust anything you post. This applies even when your posts are sometimes consistent with the truth. That's entirely on you.
  • Pointing out bad sources is very useful, although if you do it in a sarcastic manner (which is sometimes warranted) then be prepared for the fallout.
  • The only DWS regulars whom I implicitly trust (i.e. believe what they say without checking it myself) are @DarkNoon and @Sentry .
Hope that helps. :giggle:

Thanks but that's only when I tweet. Any post not a tweet such as this is not verified. Just me dumping data unchecked. I've said this before. But wanted to stress this.

Nuclear-ID Tweets yes, 100% fact checked beyond any doubt. Forums posts quoting some randos tweet (not me) is naturally not verified.

Yes, you have a consistent formatting style for your newsfeed, and that is what I was referring to.
