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.

People give trump too much credit. There's basically a living mutant organism made up of millions of evil people fucking America/humanity, but people just blame trump and think things are going to go away when he's gone.

[–] AAA@feddit.org 7 points 9 months ago

Of course those people existed before, and were just as evil as they are now. But before Trump they didn't get to act on their evil traits. With him on top, and more and more like minded in top positions, they can finally act with impunity. They don't need to fear consequences anymore. And that is absolutely related to Trump. So fuck Trump.

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

As long as extremist right wing exists this type of evil gets normalized because being a piece of shit is a right of passage.

That. Trump himself is a problem since he gave a (somehow) respectable face to the movement, but he's merely a symptom. The disease is much bigger than just him.

Fuck the Confederacy

Every country has that mutant organism. It’s a global fucking problem, but yeah, let’s laugh at other people’s misfortune. Guess what organism you are part of….

You laugh at the misfortune of the west because you think they deserve it. While you might have a point, it isn’t the entire population that should be punished.

He's not doing it alone. The Republic administration and all its enablers, corporate and private from money and votes, is endorsing this behavior.
