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, 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.

I'm glad you're hurt because being offensively hyperbolic should hurt. MOST Americans are evil? Fuck off, man. You really don't know shit about this country if you think that. Ignorant, oblivious, sure. But Evil? Were most Germans evil in the 1930s?
You've fallen for propaganda and somehow landed on a high horse
Oh poor fellow, I'm sorry I made you a victim of my linguistic violence here. Land of the free, home of the brave, right? Just be glad my country never bombed one of your schools. But then again, we really don't have to, since you guys shoot those little bastards yourself.
But I could tell you a lot about WW2 Germany. Concentration Camps were an open secret. For example, in my own home county, there was one of those camps. In 1945 there was a big escape. Civilians from all around came together to hunt and kill the escapees. From 500 escapees 11 survived. I would call that evil.
Now this flame of evil has passed onto you guys. And you carry it with pride and ignorance.
Yeah you're just an asshole. Whatever country you're from, your behavior here is completely unacceptable.
USA starts war after war and I'm the asshole because I can tell that's not right? You call yourself "Land Of The Free" and all I ever hear from you guys is: "There is really nothing we can do about it".
You get all defensive and butthurt all the time. But yeah, I listened to a lot of David Foster Wallace yesterday. I think I learned something(1). Maybe you give it a shot? There's some stuff on youtube.
Spoiler
(1) The American is more of a hollow man than an evil one? The corporate media can fill him with whatever they want. Yesterday it was "War on Terror", today it's "MAGA", what will it be tomorrow?No, you're just an asshole.
Not going to answer my question I see
Your countries history is one of destruction to the world and to itself; its laws gave the Nazies theirs, its policies deposed many democratically elected governments for economic gain all while its people reaped the benefits of said imperialism without question.
The poster is right.
Ignorance of the evil your country does is not an excuse and doesnt shield you, it includes you.
Where are you from?
If you met 10 random Americans, how many of them would you consider evil?
