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.

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.

That statement exists as a result of fierce misinformation campaigns by supporters of the Trump administration including Netanyahu and other Zionists.

The DNC have never, will never, support Genocide. Genocide is the eradication of a demographic of people, which is the explicit stance of the Trump administration alone. Joe Biden's administration pushed for ceasefire, threatened Netanyahu constantly with loss of support, built aid distribution networks to feed Palestinians.

Biden didn't push for a ceasefire at all. He continuously shipped weapons to israel and even bypassed congress to ship weapons to them. He temporarily paused a single shipment of 2,000 pound bombs, said he was "frustrated" with netanyahu while still doing everything he wanted, and he had a floating pier built that let limited amounts of aid through instead of telling israel to let aid through on-ground. This was apparently enough to fool people like you into thinking biden was serious about helping the Palestinians. If he was serious about stopping the genocide, he could've simply stopped all shipments of weapons to israel (you know, the ones carrying out the genocide). This is so basic and obvious that I'm surprised you try to argue otherwise.

Amount of aid increased after the pier was built. All Aid cut off completely for months when Trump entered office.

The amount of aid technically increased but was not nearly enough and would've been much more easily and quickly satisfied by simply telling israel to let aid through on-ground instead of this ridiculous workaround.

This is the strategy that democrats always use to justify carrying out heinous acts, just like how biden was instrumental in creating the student loan crisis and then decades later forgiving a tiny fraction of that debt so that supporters can point to that and proudly proclaim "see, he's doing something!"

People who did not vote for Harris chose more death and suffering, to kill Palestinians, simple as.

Biden didn't even acknowdge the genocide. We suppose to thanks Biden for some food when he is fine with billions of dollars in military aid to murder infants?
