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.

There was a house fire, so they were checking the mail sometime after it happened. Their dog had been missing since the fire. They discovered the skull of the dog on display, and were distraught. Neighbor came out and shot Joss in the head. Police said they don't suspect a hate crime.
America is fucked up.
Shot him in the head and then called them a gay slur while he bled out in his husband's arms, but its not a hate crime.
I hope america ends in ashes
He had to call him a gay slur so his neighbours and the police knew he's cool
American here. Me too. The whole system has been corrupt for decades
I hope homophobes end in ashes. And your house. 🤷
☝️A guy condemning prejudice and hate against a group of people then proceeds to make a prejudicial and hateful comment against a group of people.
E: I forget that this c/ is “fuck America and everyone in it”. If I point out hypocrisy or defend the idea that not everyone in the US is a shithead I get downvoted to hell.
Yes, the "If you hate Nazis/Racists/Murderers/etc , you're just as bad as them" card. Leave that one back in highschool bud ☝🏽🤓.
The important thing is that we dont hurt the bigots feelings, otherwise they might lash out
Lol. Doing it again. No, that’s not what I said at all. But I guess if you’re jumping on the all Americans must die bandwagon too, knock yourself out.
America isn't a people. America is a system of brutality and violence built on racism, genocide, and exploitation. Ashes are better than it deserves.
You're describing the entire world.
Yes, humans are indeed the worst.
"The only acceptable bigotry is my bigotry" is the theme of social media.
I saw a pretty highly upvoted thread where they were trying to brainstorm new slurs. But it's okay since they were targeting people that use AI and since those people are unpopular then it's okay to be bigoted assholes against them. /s
I really hate how okay it apparently is to be openly bigoted against Americans here.
I don't hate on the entire country and population, for example, of India just because it's way too common to hear stories of little girls being raped in Uttar Pradesh.
Anyone equating this sort of thing with America/all Americans are being just as bigoted as I would be if I made a statement like "India needs to end in ashes".
Seriously, fuck off with this shit.
