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.

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.

No offence to gay people but I’m still trying to figure out what could possibly be so important about them to cause such a fuss over. I’ve heard the arguments like they buttfuck and scissor each other but that makes me even more confused as to where the whole “you’re having a negative effect on my life” thing is coming from. It’s so fucking weird. It’s like finding out that your neighbour eats oysters and I think oysters are gross, so fucking what I’m supposed to treat them as subhuman? The part that really confuses me is that gay people seem to be culturally in line with their local communities so they shouldn’t be a problem on a social level, the only difference being what they do in their bedroom which again, is so weird that it’s such a big deal that it’s a common topic of discussion. It feels like I’m in fucking primary school.
Just because someone is gay doesn’t necessarily mean they are doing a damn thing in their bedroom! Hah!!
