Talking about JD Vance, he said
And I gotta tell you, I can’t wait to debate the guy.
That is, if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up.
…See what I did there?
The rest of his speech is worth a watch, to see just how good of a pick he really was.
The link is not just to the video in general, but to the specific timestamp where he makes the reference. There is no original title for that.
It’s a primary source so there isn’t a title like there would be for a secondary source like a newspaper or magazine article.
Video title is:
One might more appropriately edit the title to read something like:
But OP saw fit to “ALL CAPS COUCH-F****R!” it.
I saw it. I know it. The title of this post is inappropriately editorialized.
You’re not the moderator of the community, so the “These guidelines will be enforced on a know-it-when-I-see-it basis” bit isn’t applicable to you.
I maintain that the live stream of a political rally doesn’t have a title, regardless of YouTube having a “Title” metadata field. As OP is directly linking to the primary source, the live-streamed rally, one could go as far as to argue that OP is the one reporting on this event to the community, in which case they aren’t editorializing they are just titling their own second-hand reporting on the event as they see fit.
Ultimately neither of our opinions on this matter, and regardless of which one of us is “right” we are both being needlessly pedantic. If the post is breaking a rule a community moderator will moderate it.
Since my reports do nothing here (I am not browsing from beehaw directly), we should see what those moderators have to say about it.

Reports should work even if you’re registered on another Lemmy instance, but they might be broken if you’re browsing from Kbin. Kbin’s federation is a hot mess and we’ve had a lot of issues with it.
I don’t have a problem with this thread. I was already aware of it, I’m aware it’s borderline editorializing, but honestly I think it’s funny and I’m not going to be a stickler when it isn’t harming anyone or making the community worse off. I’m more concerned with editorialized headlines if/when they are misleading or don’t reflect the actual contents of the article. If this starts to be a trend, we’ll address it, but as a one off it’s not a big deal.
That’s what I figured.
Late to the party. FWIW, I’m fine with the title for this post as well. I think @TheRtRevKaiser@beehaw.org has the right of it.
If you have issues in the future, please just report it. You can message us directly if for someone reason reports aren’t working. We have fairly active and attentive moderation here.
Awww is this headline too effective? 🤭
