#Some venting and ranting should be left offline or in discord chats

Alright, inevitably political posts have are going to keep ramping up on here for obvious reasons, so for the love of whatever make sure the posts you're sharing aren't debunked or partially incorrect, outdated, rumors taken as fact, or lacking significant updates that affect being informed on the situation. I saw entirely too many of those pass by on my dash and blogs I was looking at around the election.

Like, there are timestamps, use them, look at them. And check the notes, the replies, if something is false or outdated people will usually call it out in those often and offer sources (which are also worth scrutinizing).

If there's any posts worth taking the time and energy of inspecting the post and sifting through notes/replies, it's those because you're trying to pass on information and it's pointless if you're blindly just reblogging anything that sounds plausible but you don't bother to vet at all.
