Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Have you considered that most if not all people were supporting Biden because they were doing what they could to save democracy? That maybe they weren’t voting for Biden, but against Trump?
Of course you have. I’ve seen people actually tell you this first-hand- only for you to rewrite their shit and spit it back out as something entirely different. Because that’s what you do.
You see, the rest of us are wiling to do whatever it takes to save those who WILL be hurt by Trump should he get elected. We’re not entitled and arrogant enough to think we have the luxury to not vote.
But that’s because we’re mature adults that understand that merely asking for something isn’t all it takes to get it. We also understand that sometimes, the choices suck, and the lesser of two evils is all you have- and that not doing something isn’t an option when you’re wanting the opposite result of nothing to happen.
Grow up.
Now that he's dropped out and the party has enthusiastically lined up behind a better candidate, it's clear that their insistence on an octogenarian genocide supporter ran contrary to that goal, and that everyone who called for Biden to step down was absolutely right.
I'm glad Biden did the right thing. You wanted him to stay in and lose.
Except call for the guy who was losing to him to step the fuck aside. Now that he has, we're more likely to beat Trump. You would have preferred to lose with Bidenyahu.
We got what we wanted by asking. Your shit candidate stepped down and we now have a candidate who can beat Trump. Now get in line and vote blue no matter who.
Oh yeah, and you're doing a shit job of ignoring me.
