In reply to the discussion: Trump Blames Tragic Death of Rob Reiner and Wife on 'TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME' [View all]progree
(12,711 posts)46. It's a dupe violation only when there are 2 (or more) such posts in LBN
A post being in LBN, and an earlier post being in GD or any other non-LBN forum do not count as dupes as far as the LBN dupe rule.
That's because one can't expect people to search the entirety of DU looking for the same or similar article before posting in LBN.
And even if the story were posted in 15 other forums, the purpose of LBN is to present all important news of the last 12 hours in one place (LBN) so that people don't have to read all of DU to catch up on important news.
And of course your point about the earlier post being a tweet is relevant too -- if that tweet post was posted in LBN, it would almost certainly be locked -- I've seen posts locked in LBN for that reason.

Somebody else wrote that but to sign off on that bile shows him to be a true psychopath.

You mean the use of complete sentences, proper punctuation, and no use of random commas?

The MAGAsphere made people lose their jobs for their truthful comments on Charlie Kirk's death.

Definitely planning a trip to piss on Trump's grave. It would also be convenient if it was close to Limbaugh's

And this sociopath made it worse by doubling down when he was asked about his post.
