News
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.

I more meant to consider all the other countries, and not that 100% of them are like it.
I’m guessing you’re from Canada? PP didn’t get his ass kicked, he lost by about 4%. That should frighten you.
Although if you’re from Australia, the divide was nearly 10% on the TPP, so good on them.
Australia
I'm glad to be a long way from 'Murica
I’m glad your country kicked those cunts. Truly.
But, have some pity for those of us who didn’t vote for our insanity.
Oh, I absolutely do
There are so many wonderful people in the US, but there are loads of lunatics, and an unfortunately large cohort who could have voted against it, but didn't bother. They're just as responsible
Yes, a large number of people chose not to vote. The United States is currently under attack by who the fuck ever to encourage left-wing voters not to vote. On Lemmy, you can thank the ML community for their “genocide Joe“ nonsense which targeted left-wing voters to abstain from voting in order to make a statement. I believe that this push was from outside of the country. I don’t want to be a conspiracy terrorist in this thread, so let’s just leave it at that.
I am hoping that the United States declares that same-sex marriage is no longer a thing, and that Australia will accept me as a refugee. My spouse, same sex, is a nurse with management experience, I am a software developer with 20 years of experience including management. Both of us would be a wonderful addition to your country and would work very hard to ensure our place.

Considering the entire EU is doing jack shit I’d say most of them are zionists, butt cavern. Germany is still providing weapons. Which magical EU country do you live in that has managed to stay squeaky clean all these years? Or… are you just a hypocrite like everyone else?
Well, considering all my options either supported it or were dead silent on it, I chose the one least likely to make it worse and most likely to cave to protests. Sadly, they did not win and now we have Trump, who will make the entire world worse and almost certainly guarantee Gaza will be leveled, as well as Ukraine. I’m sure there will be more countries on that list soon. Greenland? Panama? Who the hell knows. This place is a shit show.
I'll vouch for you
That means more than you think it does.
#merica ;.(
I get it
My fiancée lives over there
Long-distance relationships are hard enough, but it's worse knowing that she's living in shitty, dangerous part of the world. We've been talking and I've heard gunfire in the background, and I absolutely hate the way her employer treats her, but there's nothing she can do about at the moment
We're working on getting her here. It's a process, and it's going to take time, but we're making it happen
I get to see her again in a matter of weeks, and I cannot wait
I live in Tasmania, which is easier to get a visa to move to because it's considered a part of regional Australia. There's a desperate need for nurses, and life here is quite amazing (property is expensive though, but that's true for all Australia)
