Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

I couldn't figure out why you were saying that, and then I saw OPs post history and realized almost every comment they make on here is heavily down voted for some form of bigotry.
Yeah I don't typically tell people to fuck off, but when I see a bigot I do
Oh please, it's not anywhere near all, and even then only like half of the downvoted stuff could be conceivably called bigotry of some variety. A lot of what I say gets hated for being fiercely anti-corporate instead.
Really, this is the thing you choose to respond to, of everything that's been said?
Why not? They said something at least marginally interesting.
So you don't like being called out for being a bigot because you don't think you are one?
Yea, that's exactly the kind of boring comment I don't care about. Great example.
Why don't you go find a space where people actually want to interact with you..?
Plenty of people here aren't as angry as you.
Who said I was angry? I called you a bigot, that's all, and pointed out that a large portion of your post history is bigoted.
I don't know man. The fact that you're still going strongly suggests it to me.
