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.

Oh yeah, that'll teach 'em, soon the whole house of cards will come crumbling down because of this observation
This right here. They don't care about hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy is them expressing their power over us. They are showing us that they can do whatever the fuck they want and that we can't. They revel in hypocrisy.
People need to fucking get it through their thick skulls that calling them out on their hypocrisy only makes them stronger because it helps show that they can get away with it and we can't. Their hypocrisy is the wrong thing to focus on because it brings their execution of their power into stark relief.
We have to make them look small, not continue to show the world that they keep getting away with it.
This. I swear to god the whole "dunk" culture the internet spawned has done a solid chunk of the damage to get us to the shitshow we have now
The Daily Show was a mistake.
But we need more Cross Fire!
I keep telling people.
Only one party cares about hypocrisy. And it ain't the fucking Republicans.
If they used the word, “Slammed” Trump would’ve resigned.
Honestly with how stupid the world is right now, this might actually make some of the more gullible idiots change their minds. Because they probably have a one track mind of "china = bad"
But even if it does, so what? A few of the idiots are temporarily pulled away from Trump, he's still in power and before long they'll go back. Meanwhile scoring a petty dunk like this on them that they then ignore anyway just emboldens the rest of the followers because of how cool it is that Trump and Co are just ignoring it, and they get to insist that all us snowflakes are triggered again because who cares about reality when you can just make it all up? It didn't accomplish anything last time and it will accomplish less this time
