    I can change it back, but it’s ultimately another world news group. Changed it because I felt it just looks so cringe with ‘liberal’ in the name, If it’s not okay to have alternative world news groups I’ll change it. (I’ll also change it in the meantime)

    Edit: I also thought the logo would make it pretty apparent that it was a seperate group. Thought most people would be familiar with the logo after all the drama.

      It is cringe, but what is liberal anyhow? Is it not entirely different depending on which side of the pond you reside on? And the point of news being reporting with the goal of delivering truthful news with as little bias as possible. Where each and everyone gets to be the judge on its level of bias - to actually seek out politically skewed “news” on purpose is like putting a blinker hood or covering your ears while someone with an opposing view speaks going “LALALALA!!”*. Or it could also be likened to drinking the Kool-aid. Or maybe going ”Yes mr Salesperson I’ll have your non-stick pans and juice cleansing kit because I like what you say about them”.

      Why not just have the one world news community and let the comment section brawl out what bias the articles possess or not?

        I am banned from worldnews anyway, so i don’t have much of a choice but to use my time on liberal news instead.

        But I think it will be a better group that worldnews anyway.
