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, 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.

“As a trans man, I have the immense privilege of blending in. But these laws force me to choose between safety and obeying the law.”

That was the point, they wanted a loss loss situation for trans people.

Almost as though the goal was to criminalize trans people for existing.

That's crazy, you irrational accusatory liberals will never have any credibility as long as you keep accusing your enemies of doing bad things and having evil motivations based entirely on the things they do and reasons they give internally for doing them. If you cant assume good faith of Heinrich 'skeletor' schlafly-morgoth and his industrial sea otter rape program maybe you just don't have a place in civilized debate.

That is one of their goals but it's also to criminalize being trans. No need to deny transphobia exists to make a point.

I might go an extra step and suggest it's an attempt to control everyone.

That's the goal of the government but the goal of those neckbeards is to see women naked. Look how happy they are now that they are paid to force women to get naked in front of them.

Bunch of pervs.

What are you trying to say? Cause it's so vague and unclear that I can't tell if you're pro- or anti- trans

Sorry English is not my primary language.

I mean the current government and those who put them in power wish to ban trans and make their life hell.

But the goal of the neckbeards who took the job of policing women's bathrooms is to harass women into getting naked in front of them.
