PieFed has done it once again, this time adding 'warning' labels for opposing ideological perspectives, well at least one; Can't find any warnings for fascism or capitalism ๐Ÿค”

Are you sure this is a "warning"? /s

Sounds like an indicator of quality, instead. Even the icon is in red, the color of hope.

This is a strong and succinct argument, cheers.

We need peoplesdispatch.org I think it's valuable thing to have a take on events from their angle. Yet it needs to be read with an understanding that they have an angle. Using the warning icon to provide that understanding is clunky and wasn't really intended for that purpose. There has been some drift in the usage away from the original idea behind the feature.

One day it might be good to have a different icon for providing context, separate from providing warnings.

Will you provide context for state run Zionist propaganda like the BBC?
