Subjunctive posted:many different users state they do not like or want me issuing certificates also i hear a lot of people pronounce "muckraking" as "muck racking" in the last decade so it may just be good old linguistic drift.

Main Paineframe posted:muckraking is digging through the muck to find what people are trying to hide, instead of just taking them at face value and quoting their press releases verbatim like most of the other journalists do a muckrake is apparently "a rake for scraping up dung", an etymology which pre-dates modern plumbing and sanitation (e.g. the new york department of street cleaning, founded 1881, previously a bureau under the NYPD but predictably the police were loving useless at street cleaning) the rich and powerful of the 19th century complaining about muckraking may have been still literally making GBS threads in the street (or making GBS threads inside and tossing it into the street after, if they were a bit fancier) and making work for the literal muckrakers. or possibly the practice of making GBS threads into the street died out in the U.S. by the time the metaphorical muckrakers arose, the timeline is a bit hazy to me
