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.

At first it was going to be to forgive all student debt for everyone making under $80k, then it was $20k, then they knocked it down to $10k but only for left-handed, red-headed, teacher-nurses. Get it through your thick heads; the Demo-rats don't give a fuck about you any more than Republi-tards. If they gave away free education, their military recruitment (which mostly benefits from taking advantage of desperate poor people) would suffer even more, and it's already at an all-time low. And that's setting aside that colleges now are just huge moneymaking Ponzi-scheme, hedge-fund sports franchises that do education as a side-hustle.
I didn't realize that the Supreme Court had a "Demo-rat" majority.
The stupidity and anger on display here is breathtaking
Oh wow... Just an awful attempt at disinformation.
General incoherence aside... I guess the Supreme Court doesn't exist, and Biden shut down his own loan forgiveness program?
I mean really... Do better.
Answer me this, why do you think they haven't been able to succeed in their first few attempts?
Kiddos, realize that this is the thing working from all angles to influence your thoughts right now.
The same energy/funding behind this real/fake person, who is just obviously so ignorant that it hurts to read here, is also currently posting in all of your feeds elsewhere. They are posting in those feeds in much more subtle ways, and often, all to make you doubt objective truth.
They are posting the lead comment, and two comrades are then posting replies below the original misinformation to say, "I agree" and/or "I didn't know this, but I asked a friend and they said it was actually true, weird!" All things to, again, influence you to doubt the things you can see as true with your own eyes/reason.
This dark energy/funding is likely in some of your favorite YouTubers/twitch streamers you watch, definitely all throughout Reddit, it's in your IG/FB/TikTok feeds, it's in the news your parents watch and the editorials in your newspapers. It's in the supreme court deciding your future if you're in the US. It's insidious. One of the best skills you can hone right now is the ability to feel it quickly and the empathy to warn others about it in a way that they can hear your warning.
Don't forget botnets to artificially make it seem like an opinion is more popular than it is by mass-liking it
Where's my bots go? Did they gain shit-lib sentience an decide to downvote me? You silly little bundle of twigs.
