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.

You're literally constantly talking about things you hate. Have you checked your own comment history?
If you read my comments and think I'm motivated by hate I think that's what they call projection
These all you? Because they're in the last two pages of your post history. They sure all look like you hating on things to me:
Here's you literally hating on firefighters less than a day ago:
Shall I keep going?
Incidentally, I don't hate you. You're not remotely important enough to me for that.
Taking just the firefighting comment out of context as "hating" kind of confirms that you're not actually reading what I'm saying or understanding it either.
My issue is that unelected fire officials often override elected officials pushing for safe streets. They're treated with reverence despite their role in the mass auto fatalities every day.
I'll respond to you more once I'm done with this shift.
Irony.
Try to get past the first sentence next time, maybe you'll actually understand what I'm saying.
Again, irony.
Do you have an issue with safe streets?
That's not even relevant to the hypocrisy of you calling someone a "hater" based on a single comment and then saying you aren't a "hater" based on multiple comments because they're all supposedly out of context.
But I'm not surprised you're trying to change the subject.
And no matter how much you want me to, you're still not important enough to me to hate. Sorry.
You said I was a hater citing as evidence that I was being critical of fire departments when they oppose safe streets, because more people die from car crashes than house fires by an order of magnitude.
You seem to be confusing being critical with "hating"
Don't worry I'll address the rest of your allegations once I'm not using my phone to reply.
Yet again, irony.
I'm not surprised you're again trying to change the subject rather than face the fact that pretty much everything you've said since you hilariously called me a "hater" has been hypocritical.
Hey, you said all my comments are hating, and provided as most recent evidence me advocating for safer streets. Now you refuse to even engage on the topic you brought up.
It's not exactly changing the subject to ask you if you have some issues with the thing you yourself cited.
I did not say that.
You're now lying to avoid your hypocritical comments.
