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.

Yeah, she's been trying to capitalize on the comically stupid and pointless death of her traitor daughter for awhile now.
there's no gain from mocking a death. don't preoccupy yourself here
additive : death sucks
I'll mock traitors all I want. Take this sanctimonious nonsense somewhere else.
bet your ass you can have all the words
I disagree that her death was "comical" but mocking her absolutely serves the purpose of preventing her being elevated as a martyr for a stupid cause. The more everyone says she's a sad joke who threw her life away for nothing, the harder it is for martyrdom to gain traction. I'm here for it.
crazy dax told you shut the hell up
so you saw that crazy girl attempt an attack on congress, now you want to say what, what is you want
Presumably democracy
Counterpoint: Henry Kissinger

War criminal from the Nixon administration. Lead to the deaths of millions in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Pakistan, and many other countries. He died last week and the entire world was celebrating
Are you for real
Do you not know of the Darwin Awards?
Or are you the type of person who "doesn't speak ill of the dead" even though they might have done stupid or evil things?
i need some help.
who is mike johnson
Whew, gonna block you man.
Everything you've said so far has been unhinged.
I agree that everything the commenter has said has been unhinged (like, way unhinged). Buuut, it’s not like he has your personal phone number texting you every 5 minutes. Haha
What is the point of blocking someone you’ll probably never engage with again?
It's the best way to deal with trolls. Block them. They are the reason squelch is an option.
I don’t think this person is a troll. I just think they’re batshit crazy.
sorry friend
What are your thoughts about George Floyd?
he was murdered. sorry i fucked off into a wilderness.
I don’t care.
