Another shitty AI written article. Is there any source that makes sense?

Thanks for the alert that it is ai written. I'll pass

I mean it’s yahoo; they’ve been getting bots of one form or another to write their shit for a while now, haven’t they?

This appears to be a reprint of an MSN article which was apparently written by a human. Just not very well.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/russian-occupation-authorities-destroy-unesco-world-heritage-site-build-outdoor-theater-in-its-place/ar-BB1oXZk7

However, I'm also not finding a really good alternate source. Every other source was an outlet I've never heard of.

I wouldn't be shocked if it were true, but I'd sure like better info.

That would be one of the outlets I've never heard of.

Are you familiar with it? Media Bias Fact Check isn't.

I've seen it a few times related to war stuff. Looks like it's mostly arts coverage though, kind of like Smithsonian magazine or something.

Fair enough. If it's accurate, they are also taking artifacts back to Russia. This is all part of their attempt to claim Ukraine as their ancestral homeland (true-ish?), giving them the right to invade it.

Okay, where would you go to find out whether or not that or any other media link is remotely trustworthy?

Common sense

Edit: I see you are American, sorry. Ignore my comment

First of all, incivility is against community rules. Please do not do it again.

Secondly, "common sense" is the thing that made people believe the sun revolved around the Earth for thousands of years. Just because you believe your "common sense" tells you the truth doesn't mean it does. So that's a really terrible way to find out whether or not a source, especially one you've never heard of before, is trustworthy.

Ask any con man- the easiest people to con are the people who think they're too smart to be conned.

Is being retarded against rules? Because you are a truly retarded person ...

Go ban yourself? Or you just like fake internet power?

Sorry, I would have let another insult slide, but ableist bigotry is not allowed here.

I see that now, thank you. They're banned. They have decided to get revenge by sending me silly threats in PM and posting insulting posts in other communities, and they were also presumably the one who went through my history and downvoted all of my posts right after they were banned.

What a pathetic creature.
