Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Yeah but that's long-term profits and they don't really care about long-term profits. Their mindset is as long as they can make record profits this year, it doesn't really matter if everyone dies next year, that's next year's problem. Everyone is expendable including their future selves.
It requires a distinct lack of imagination to be a capitalist.
