Alright. Might have misspoke. I saw clips which I obviously fell for the propaganda

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There were some misleading initial reports about it, to be fair

Yeah. I could have better researched better before I commented. Also I greatly appreciate you being polite.

I also deleted the comment

Restore it and add an edit note that you fell for the propaganda so others can learn from you too. Strike out the text if you want to be extra clear.

Own your mistakes and help everyone!

Good idea. I don't know how to strike out sentences, so if you could help me with that? I'll work on restoring the comment

Edit: I actually don't know how to restore the comment

For future striking out sentences use ~~ around the text ~~like this~~ to make it look ~~like this~~

Not sure if there's a way to restore comments

I like you and the humility you’ve displayed here. Thanks for being a reasonable person.

The world is being restored one conversation at a time. You're both upstanding internet anons.

If you are using an app I have no idea, but on a browser the three dots underneath switches between Delete and Undelete. The text editor options has one to ~~strike through~~ whatever text you have already highlighted. If the strike through shows squiggles you might need to remove some spaces as they have to be right against the first and last words to work right.

I applaud you taking one for the team!

I had to do it paragraph-by-paragraph. It is working now

Sadly this is how it works. Now imagine you're one of the millions of people who absolutely wouldn't care to dive deeper into this and just argue from the rooftops that he's a brilliant person.
