Wtf is that article title am I having a stroke????
80 year old good Samaritan pushes a woman out of the way of an oncoming vehicle, dies as a result. According to his son, he was always helpful.
Yeah it makes sense with the first few sentences, but that title alone made me question myself
Came here to comment that more and more article titles seem to be written by AI. Normally this kind of shit phrasing would be caught and corrected by an experienced mid-level editor, but since it wasn’t…
First thing I thought was whether we have an equivalent community to r/ihadastroke. And it looks like we do! https://lemmy.world/c/ihadastroke
Yea, misread that as "80 year old dies after pushing woman infront of vehicle, always helpful"
I thought the point of Samaritans were that they were supposedly all awful people apart from the good one in the story.
Nah, they're mostly just an ethnic group of fellow Abrahamic Israelites who worship on a different mountain. The author often injects their own biases in scripture, and when they don't, at the very least it's a reflection of cultural norms for the author and/or audience.
Here's a picture of a Jew and a Samaritan side by side. The differences are immediately apparent.
