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.

Trans person: "Cis people suck, they keep passing laws and push rhetoric that kills people like me. They are toxic and hateful."
Some random cis person: "tHaTs HaTeFuL yOu HyPoCrItE"
In my experience, cis people are the only ones erasing us and trying to pass laws and rhetoric that kills us. Sorry it's not easy to "nuance" a voice of frustration around that. Cis people honestly kinda suck. Looking forward to another tone police reply.
And it's Isrealis who are genociding Palestinians, Russians who are invading and killing Ukrainians, and Chinese that are genociding Uighurs, but it's ignorant and hateful to make blanket statements like "Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck," as any fully-formed person understands that having no control over a group you were born to does not indict you for the crimes of the very worst of that group.
Grow up.
So if Ukrainians said that Russians suck, are you gonna jump in to defend Russians? What if Palestinians said that Israeli people suck, are you going to chide them?
If so, then you just want those suffering to suffer quietly, or to suffer "the right way". God forbid they express disdain for the groups oppressing them.
I think a better question is, do YOU think that Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck, or do you only hate entire groups of people when it directly affects you?
Hating an entire group of people <> "suffering the right way"
I hope you becomes less of a hateful person. I'll leave you to it and hope our interaction inspires others to be less hateful and ignorant than you seem determined to maintain.
CYA! Sorry I was too uppity for you or whatever.
hateful*
People should be held accountable for their choices and actions. Nobody chose to be born in any country, as a particular race, gender, or any other "group" outside of their control.
Perpetuating the acceptance of prejudice, however, is a choice.
