But even if you do buy on Amazon sometimes, why should that make you on board with surrendering your city to this billionaire? It's part of this toxic obsession of finding minor 'gotchas'/hypocrisies instead of debating substance. You MUST subscribe to every belief of team A and hate everything from team B.

“You’re telling me none of these people shop on Amazon?” said New Orleans native Jake Springer, who, along with his wife, was spending a weekend in Venice on a wine tour through Italy. “At least they are protesting peacefully. Americans could learn a thing or two from this.”

They found the dumbest possible American to give a comment.

This is basically how Wikipedia users communicate still.

This, except the "authority" is just another hyena.

I think you misread what I linked. They are two different ratings: red (no not use) for older articles and orange (restrictions apply) for anything newer. The verdict that RFE/RL is biased is still current, as was confirmed by the 2024 discussion.

And the question remains: why link to RFE/RL when there are other sources covering the same event that are more broadly trusted?

Idk about the rest but RFE/RL is literally a CIA propaganda outlet. Even the consensus of wikipedia acknowledges this:

"RFE/RL may be biased in some subject areas (particularly through omission of relevant, countervailing facts), and in those areas, it should be attributed in the article body."

Just find a different source.

It's possible that they're functional cookies in the sense of article 5(3) of the ePrivacy directive (so no consent necessary) but still personal data under the GDPR that's processed on the basis of legitimate interest. In that case they would still need to inform users of the processing under article 13 of the GDPR. Though that can usually be done with a less intrusive link to the privacy statement in the footer.
