You must have missed it during your "search", or failed to notice that the name of the person is featured in the headline of each of the articles in this image. These are not two photos of the same guy. Ian Hill, who is 70, is the guy on the left.
Gotcha that makes sense. DuckDuckGo doesn’t throw up pictures unless you click on “images”. I just searched the name after a quick glance at op’s pic. Thanks.
No problem.
I only chimed in because I am noticing a huge increase all across .win of posts and comments that have stripped out context, or are flat out bullshit. The top comment that you replied to is a good example. The facts and context are clearly stated in the post yet they still made that comment. The fact that it is the top comment is a little alarming. That shows that people making conclusions that are not even being presented and then circle-jerking over these conclusions. That was/is a common occurrence on Reddit.
Keep an eye out and you will see it too. The number of posts that are just screenshots that are cropped in a way that hides the publication and/or context. Post headlines that are editorialized in a way that contradicts the text contained the linked articles (if the OP even bothers to provide a link). Old stories that are presented as new, often with an editorialized headline that changes facts about the original story. Satire and parody presented as real stories. Top level comments that are perpetuating false narratives. This last one is very common on r/conspiracies on Reddit.
This sort of thing happens on all forums from time to time, but there has been a very noticeable up-tick in these types of posts and comments over the last couple of months. It would seem to me that the various 3-letter agencies along with the Media Matters/Share Blue/etc., type folks are operating on .win in an increased capacity. Not all of these post and comments are being made by nefarious organizations of course, some people are just stupid, but it is common enough these days that stupidity alone doesn't explain it.
