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.

Who will prosecute the people in this scenario? There is no end in sight imo
The next government...
Only the neoliberal wing obstructed holding people accountable last time. Now they don't control the DNC, so they can't use the "victory fund" to control state parties during the presidential primary or House/Senate rep's votes thru threats of bankrupting state parties.
Like, there's a shit ton to be optimistic about these days, you just won't hear about it on anything a billionaire owns, they want people turned off from the Dem party since they lost control.
Like I am not in the US and generally this is correct, but domestic politics specifically in the US I fear is going to get even worse.
I'm in the US, I expect it to get a lot worse before it will get any better.
It will get worse for everyone if we don't learn, demand better and embody better ourselves. This isn't going to be top down. It has to be bottom up.
Oh yeah, the next year shit will get much worse...
But "it's always darkest before the dawn" is a saying for a reason. It's a completely different vibe then when Biden was going into office and everyone knew it was just a brief respite at best.
The last time we were in this "good" of a position was the great depression, but that got us FDR.
So on the timeline of a decade, I'm optimistic. Because if I only thought on short timeline these days I'd be depressed as fuck, which is why oligarch owned media wants everyone thinking on short timelines.
The next government...
Yeah, look how that turned out for those Jan 6 thugs...
