Yes. Misleading title is a lie. Putting that lie into the title of our community makes this entire discussion premised on a lie. Most people are not going to read the article, and the hasbara / propaganda of the title still gets the eyeballs. So it is a net negative

I don’t believe that either, which is why I sometimes ask them if they have.
Sadly one cannot force anyone to read… one can only expect others to do it.
