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.

65 million don't vote. "But Trump" is not a legit platform to run on. You have to give voters something to vote for. Dems fucked up

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's exactly it. Dems keep throwing winnable elections and when they do get power they don't attempt to implement any reforms to make it harder for republicans to hold power both electorally and monetarily so their voters get poorer and disenfranchised and leave.

Yeah all that "reform" is really happening now, isn't it?

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I mean Zorhan is a good sign things might finally be changing.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Noo! The democrats were entitled to your vote! Vote blue no matter who they wanna deport and remove!

Donald Trump is the president you fucking moron. Happy to vote for Biden in 2020 but not Harris, essentially just a younger Biden.

Two options. You're phony or you're stupid.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

I voted for Harris in California. I didn't like it and it didn't impact much, but I did. She still lost because she didn't make herself different enough from Biden, who had low polling rates, plus courted Republicans who got us into this mess.

The problem is that should have been the only platform needed, but still wasn't enough

[–] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world -2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Democratic VOTERS fucked up, the party did not. So many pathetic excuses for such a stupid decision in November.

[–] return2ozma@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (2 children)

The party didn't even hold a primary and said you have to vote for who we tell you to vote for. "Ugh fine, what is she running on?" ... "Nothing! Do you want Trump to win?"

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 months ago

Amazing how they refuse to blame the people with more data, money, and people instead of the people who are in states that didn't matter (solid blue or solid red).

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

That's why I voted for Biden and it was much better than this. I never liked him. Still don't.
