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.

MODERATORS
Apple still advertises on Twitter. We need a website that tracks all of these companies that still advertise on that pro-nazi platform.
Companies don’t have ethics, they have profits
You shouldn’t read too much into it
Disagree on not reading into it. You should be appalled by the fact that profit comes at the sacrifice of ethics.
Yes but not enough people will boycott everything that supports things they are against. A lot of people will have a brand that they say “yeah but I really like them”
And all corporations are evil, it’s not really a surprise
Companies don't have ethics.
Companies aren't real, they're just people organized into a collective, and people do have ethics.
And contrary to Internet wisdom, corporations do not have a legal obligation to pursue profit at all cost.
One might ask what the point of spreading that particular lie was.
The company boards would gladly stuff you into Gaza if there was a profit to be made.
Sure. But I find it strange that people act like those evil fucks are a faceless building and not individuals you can point to and say, "Hey, no, it's that guy, he enslaved those kids."
What are we going to do? What recourse did the girls raped by Epstein have?
I'm not going to say join a radical militia, but maybe see if any in your area look cool.
I don't see why I shouldn't look into it. Are there any good reasons not to?
You can look into it but it doesn’t mean company supports X
Look at pride month or the bud light thing
Found one it's called google, seem like all companies in the world advertise on twitter except for these two in the title that pulled out
