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.

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.

User name checks out. Thanks for giving a fuck and not posting the same endless whining and bad takes I've seen so much of.
I am a perpetual optimist....
And when looking back at the last 8 years, at least 2016-2020 when the president was fucking up, everyone I'd run into tended to agree.
Bidens term though when I was upset about anything, I'd either get gaslight that it's not a problem or the only people agreeing with me never looked past the letter next to Biden's name when deciding if they should complain about what he was doing.
So I'm still gonna be complaining about the same shit, I'll still verbalize what I think will work...
But in the next four years people are going to act like I've done a 180, because the concept of actually holding both parties to an equal standard is that unheard of in America today. People like me still exist, it's just a whole hell of a lot of us had their final straw when Dems closed rank to protect Bill Clinton lying under oath.

The 1/3 of the country that doesn't vote aren't in the middle of our two parties on any spectrum. They're looking at the parties on a measure of integrity and trustworthiness. And found both lacking.
Republicans aren't going to run someone that meets that standard, so all Dems have to do to win a presidential election is put up the only candidate who meets that standard in a general election. Stop focusing on "better than Republicans" and focus on "good enough for our voters".
Yelling at them to vote D doesn't work, so why not trying to give them what they want? It's better for all of us anyways.
You claim non voters saw the felon Trump and Harris and said to themselves “both sides are the same, I’m not voting”?!
This reeks of republican talking point.
