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.

Where did i say kamala and trump are the same? Typical cultist behaviour. I can tell the difference between trump and kamala and i can tell the difference between progressives and anti genocide and pro genocide like trump , biden and kamala harris

Shame on anybody who don't make a deal of the worst type of genocides and wesponize it to serve their political stupid cults interests

This year, all I care about is winning a small amount of power in the Federal Government, so Trumpism isn't running all 3 branches of government, which would also be to the benefit of Palestinians and not good for Benjamin Netanyahu who currently has cart blanche to do whatever he wants. I don't care about having perfect candidates, I care about winning.

This is not a praise of trump because any president has full power to recognize genocide and ban all weapons to Israel but facts show the intensity of the genocide is slower during Trump. The way you minimize the Gaza issue show that you never cared about Palestinians.

During Biden

70% of all structures in Gaza were damaged or destroyed 92% of all housing units destroyed or damaged 88% of school buildings were damaged or destroyed 80% of key water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities Only 16 out of 36 hospitals were partially functioning, facing critical shortages of fuel, medicine, and clean water. 75% of agricultural land, including orchards and greenhouses, was damaged or destroyed

If the same pace continued like during Biden, there would be nothing left in Gaza. Kamala said she would not change anything in Biden's gaza policies.

I guess if you can't win an argument, you just make up the motives of your opponent.

This issue and Democratic infighting is basically the only obvious way that MAGA stays in power for the next two elections.

You make pronouncements from a fictional moral high horse, while doing way more damage to people you claim to support than if you just just sat home and did nothing. Nothing moral in that.
