For 11 months, I pretended to be a far-right extremist. I discovered a radical youth movement trying to infiltrate the Republican Party.

    Halfway through the article. Just wanted to say it seems great so far. It’s the kind of thing you would think would have been done several times by now, yet this is the first such article I’ve read. Also, kudos to the author for listening to what must have been hours of drivel a day without going crazy.

        Is investigative journalism considered “news”? I guess it is reporting on facts. I’m not saying I don’t want to see it, and I’m not saying any “rule” has been broken or anything. I just like seeing things categorized correctly 🤷

        I think of it like this: “news” is “things that happened”. So an article about Trump being arrested is fine to post as news, because that is reporting on an event that happened. “Politics” would be the community for articles that are like opinion pieces or investigations that are specifically about political figures or groups.
