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.
I'm beginning to think that the USA is in real trouble
To reiterate, no shit!
It began when he came down the escalator.
If that guy could win a presidential election, the trouble began much earlier.
It did, with Gwen Stefani on The Voice.
beginning??
have you been in a coma the last nine years?
I mean in a more immediate and in-the-face way
You know how things die slowly, then all at once?
it's definitely collapsing, been going on for awhile too.
ICE dissappearing people...saw that happen to some random kid on the streets of boston at the exact same time as the yuppies were doing their much publicized No Kings marches. (i imagine the powers that be in these cities are basically greenlighting ICE to go ham, long as they stay out of the richest neighborhoods).
because everyones just kind of coping on this idea that everything will return to normal (normal here being completely unsustainable ratfucking) when trump dies...personally i dont see it.
these motherfuckers said themselves they won't be removed peacefully.
and while i briefly entertained the idea of helping the good guys...tbh, to me it doesn't look like the US wants to be saved, and as anyone who has experience extending their help to strangers can tell you...you can't help someone who doesn't even think they have a problem.
Nine? This goes back to Nixon era!
Well, that it took you this long to figure that out seems an apt demonstration of why we're here.
EDIT: Geez - you guys can't tell when someone's going along with the joke, can you?
