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.

You're correct, but these entitled children will downvote you and throw their mental gymnastics at you anyways.
Getting older is really showing me how stupid this generation is. Oh well, at least it's easier for me to compete.
TIL wanting to afford living near family/friends means I'm entitled.
Take your pills, Grandpa.
Fucking read the comments, are you dense? Why the fuck would I want to live in a place where my wife might be forced to carry a terminal pregnancy? Or somewhere lacking employment opportunities other than fucking Walmart? Jfc.
It's not about wants, it's about needs.
If you can't afford to live somewhere, you have to move somewhere else. Thinking otherwise is textbook entitlement.
If these places aren't good enough for you, then you need to make more money to live somewhere else or do your part to make them better.
Thinking otherwise is textbook entitlement.
What's actually entitled is thinking that people should just shut up and accept shit choices to preserve your property value (and commodified housing in general <.<) instead of building more goddamned dense housing and infrastructure.
"Suck it up" is one of the worst phrases invented. I've only ever seen it used to justify hierarchy, subjugation, abuses of power, and not changing things for the better. Its existence primarily serves the interests of those with power.
No, what's entitled is thinking you deserve more before others who have less without being able to afford it yourself.
That's textbook entitlement, lol.
"I could move to Bumfuck Montana where the rent is cheaper, or I could stay here and take care of my elderly mother with dementia. Yep. Montana it is because I'm not an entitled child."
I don't get it. If Bumfuck Montana isn't good enough for you, then what about the people who are forced to live their because they can't afford more?
Why should you get more before them? You already have more! Lol.
Show us where the mean old city folk touched you
My wallet.
