Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

I've always behaved. My entire post history is public. Most of the hate toward me started before the election, when I refused to vote for Biden, Harris, or Trump. I voted Socialist, and back then, that pissed off people. A lot. Feel free to look at articles on Lemmy in the months before the election. Many people, not just me, but many who announced they were going to vote third party, were called traitors.

Times have changed. Voting Socialist isn’t seen as nearly as "evil" as it was last year.

Probably because people finally realised it was non-voters, not third-party voters, who cost the election. Even if every third-party voter had backed Harris, she still would have lost.

I voted Socialist, proudly. I got banned and called a troll for it. Some people still won't let it go. Regardless of what I post. And it's very possible I'll even get banned in this community for my socialist leanings.

But back to the topic of the article: I do believe this news. It won't happen in near future, but I 100 percent believe that China is indeed planning to build on the moon. I think they'll be able to do it. And the people laughing, well they haven't been paying attention.
