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.

Every single billionaire (ETA and techbro), regardless of age, and their children and grandchildren should be on the front lines.

Stock brokers, oil execs too

I think the key is to be flexible here, there are a lot of other lines we can accept. Front line is good but lined up against the wall is okay too. They need to at least have a choice.

I'd rather them experience what they send poor people to experience. They will either cotton on to creating and assisting AES at home or abroad...or face the wall because reeducation already was given a chance and they are beyond rehabilitation.

Remember war happens when politicians fail at their job.

Trump has privately shown serious interest in U.S. ground troops in Iran

Really? He should send Barron first....

Nah, he wants to be a king? He should act like an old style one and lead the assault personally.

But what happens if the UN designates the stench coming from his diaper as a noxious chemical weapon?

[–] YellowParenti@lemmy.wtf 3 points 4 hours ago

Send him to the Hague

[–] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 9 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

With ICE. They have more funding than the USMC. Let's she how they can handle some real action.

Why won't they respect this administrative warrant?
