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.

You've stated in this very thread that anyone who either voted Republican or didn't vote are inhuman and should be wiped out. Are you claiming that none of those more than 231 million people are innocent?
Not only this, he clearly stated that somehow the children are guilty enough to deserve the same consequence. Children (the majority at least) cannot be held accountable for anything. Being brainwashed by communities they were born into isn't their fault.
They made their choice in 2024. I don’t care anymore 🤷♂️
You want to kill 231 million people. Hitler killed 12 million. You want to be 19 times worse than Hitler. And you still claim to be better than our opponents? Delusional and potentially psychopathic.
🤷♂️ hey unlike you, I want to do something besides let it happen.
Bitch, I'm in Minnesota on the streets protesting and helping my community while ICE attacks us. Where are you? Behind a keyboard dreaming of being the largest mass murderer in history.
You’re not doing anything to stop Trump and his cronies from taking over and destroying this country. You’re just standing on a street corner not killing ICE.
Nothing you’re doing now has an impact. Look around. You’ve changed nothing. We are in a FREE FALL. What ICE did in Minnesota is just them playing with their food.
When it happens—and it will happen this year—it’s gonna happen fast. This country is fucking toast. It’s over.
What am I doing? I’m immigrating to another country. America has done nothing but oppress me my whole life. Fuck you people. Enjoy Post America.
So you flee rather than fight. You talk about how I'm doing nothing and having no impact and you're running away? I'm so shocked to find out you're a hypocrite and a coward🙄.
You’re not fighting. You’re not better than me. You’re doing nothing, and you and your family are going to die.
I’m saving mine. I’m better than you.
Goodbye and good luck.
Pathetic
Im sorry that most people have been downvoting you. This place has a lot of people who lack nuance it seems.
Eh, seems likely that the person I was arguing with used some sock puppets to downvote me because they think this is Reddit, where that sort of thing matters.
A lot of people I've talked to on Lemmy are actually capable of reasonable debate, this just wasn't one of them.
Yeah, you are pathetic. A pathetic magat. You know you are. You don’t vote against him.
