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.

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.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

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.

They accuse anyone to the left of Hitler of hating America while flying the flag of an enemy nation defeated 150+ years ago.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago (1 children)

To be fair I am to the left of Hitler and hate America.

Not even the flag of an enemy nation. They chose the battle standard of a particular regiment.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

That's what I was thinking. How is this in any way not the opposite of patriotism? On technicality they're steering torward treason, but neither state they adhere to exists anymore.

The white face mask is the new white pointed hood

[–] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 6 points 1 month ago

They chose this color to make flags out of it later, if somehow their brave march went south.

The same ones for Palantir and facial recognition against minorities.

Brave patriots. Proudly standing up and not being identified.

The strangest gay subculture there is

[–] Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Take the masks off traitors. I'm not afraid of some treasonous rats that hide behind a mask like cowards.

[–] Archr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Remember when 4chan identified someone just from their eyes, brow, and nose?

The bike lock bandit. He ended up being an ethics teacher at a college and got fired for beating people with a bike lock. We just need that sort of investigation here.

Oh look, it's the justification for 30-rd magazines.

[–] nixfreak@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 month ago

Seriously , a giant mob needs to break up the rally and burn those flags

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

That first image from 2017 is something out of a 90s court room drama about the racist south. It's so extreme it borders on caricature.

[–] Arancello@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

The confederacy doing its victory lap.

[–] homes@piefed.world 6 points 1 month ago

DSA, instead, spends time kicking ass at the polls

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

What a way to commemorate the nation's 250th...

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

How can you be a "patriot" and then promote the flag from another country - a country of losers?

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Patriot front = white nationalist Taliban

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Dude in lower right has a bump cap in his hat.

Wonder if they like cocktails.

in the first image, i believe one of them fled to the UK before the pandemic, to avoid being doxxed. so he can finish his business degree.

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago
