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’m very out of the loop with this, I’m not from the USA. Which protests do we like, and which don’t we?
Which types you like probably hinges on how you feel about flak vested white supremacist militias, I guess.
Surprisingly, I’m not really in favour of them, the handful of pics vids I’ve seen didn’t have enough context…like there are Brits that are anti Farage cause he’s not authoritarian enough.
Oh yeah, tell me about it. You still get far-right protests against Israel where I'm from because while they like the genocide, they still hate Jews. Weird people are weird.
This protest is pro-democracy though.
Musk's falling out with Farage was reportedly because he wasn't rabidly far-right enough in the correct ways.
The "No Kings" protest was anti-Trump. Do with that what you will.
I’m assuming the handmaids are the good guys too? I’ve only really seen a handful of vids and not enough to get context.
People dressing up as handmaids from The Handmaid's Tale are typically dressed that way as a form of protest against the conditions that would lead to Handmaid's Tale becoming a reality. Which is typically anti-Christian nationalism but can also include anti-MAGA/Trump which ...the lines there are blurry at best.
Thank you for your explanations, just wanted to be sure.
Officials cancelled anti-Trump protests after a Democrat representative was killed. (Trump is Republican.)
