A quick diary to let fellow Kossacks know: there is a diary currently on the Rec list about Turning Texas Blue/Rick Perry which has a checkered Tipjar. Diarist did not add a snark tag, and some recommended it, believing the story about Rick Perry/medicaid expansion to be true because it quoted a Texas newspaper (which doesn't exist).
Later, some commenters added tags, such as snark, hoax, spam, fantasy. Some tags were taken away and added again. This further confused the community.
My argument is not whether or not the diary was meant to be snark (better critics than I have answered that), but since it was not consistently tagged, there is a real possibility that some recommended a diary that was misleading.
Sorry for the meta. I hate meta. But, unfortunately, I think people trying to adjust tags, however well-meaning, can sometimes have this exact result.
Peace.
PS: Sorry, my fellow Texans. Perry isn't coming around, yet.
