For me personally I can say that I do not read the intercept often enough to have a grasp on how reliable they are. So the publishers name and it’s associated clout alone wasn’t enough for me to believe the story’s content. If you are more familiar with them then maybe that’s why our initial reactions to the story were different. Imho it’s ok to focus on a storys credibility first before discusing it’s content. Even if the contents message transports the right message. In hindsight it was bad of couse but hindsight is 20/20. Anyone who down votes this just because it may be false is overreacting though since it’s understandable that the intercept couldn’t link to any external sources here.
The Tagesspiegel since has https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/nach-beteiligung-an-palastina-protesten-in-berlin-drei-eu-burgern-und-einem-studenten-aus-den-usa-droht-ausweisung-13468543.html (Article is in German)
The Tagesspiegel as well. One of the German papers of middle size. They also asked sources independently.
Nope I just thought it was wird that no other oulet was reporting in this. Since then they have picked up the story and got confirmation on the story indepentanly. But it was weird that something of this magnitude wasn’t picked up by anyone immeadeatly. I also would have believed it if the intercept linked to some sources but they didn’t. Probably because there were none that were public ally accessible. It sometimes happens that newsstorys get out that are false so I’ve made it a rule of mine to not trust story’s of significant magnitude when there is only one source.
Yeah fuck the Israeli government
Oh interesting. Can you tell me what they are Spending the money on? I know of DW who often pushes german Propaganda but I think in the whole picture of the news media their reach is relatively small compared to other news outlets’ reach.
But I still don’t think we pretend there aren’t any Nazis in Germany. You may have missed it or the news hasn’t reached you ;) but there was a big wave of protests in 2024 against rightwing extremism here Wikipedia no need to read it all but you can scroll down to the list of protests and look at the participant amounts.
I am a German citizen and we do not pretend we don’t have fascist citizens. Why do you think we do?
Taz for example being the biggest one. They are talking about Gaza contantly. They also haven’t picked up this story
Good call. I’ve tried searching for their namens and some other related keywords in german but couldn’t find any secondary sources. Only two other newssites that basically copied the intecept verbatim. So for now I wouldn’t believe it
Aren’t we all?
I think that’s a functionality that would better be integrated into the client’s. Idk if there are any out there already that can do it though. As someone who didn’t use the bot on reddit I felt it was kind of annoying on reddit to always have two or more of the top comments be completely unrelated to the subject. It felt like spam

How do they not bonk their noses?
It’s possible to win a round without producing any. You might get some as a random drop. Alcohol and it’s production buildings will also pop up as a takable option and by not taking it ever the game will be harder. Meaning the game will punish you by being harder for ignoring it. You can also forbid your colonists from drinking it except in some very rare scenarios where you could just abandon a run/town. So basically you can avoid it but it’s always gonna be in your face. Feel free to ask if you want more info :)
One oft those yellow\black dishwashing sponges in the bathroo(m). I was a stupid kid
It’s not a different version. Just a different spin on the same story. It changes nothing. Notice how the Tagesspiegel only says that some of the protesters used axes to break into a building, then threatened employees but not if they used the axes for it. It does not say they used them as arms. It also does not say if the protesters that threatened people and vandalised the building are the ones that are now about to be deported just that they also broke in. It implies it though. The wonderful thing about implications is that you can imply stuff about someone that isn’t falsifiedable. So it does not add relevant details about the four people threatened by deportation. Just spin. You are being toyed with.
