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.

Are you removed? Go back and read your own godamn comment.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, I am not removed. I'm am still here. (I would love to know what racial slur you said that got censored.)

But you were still lying about the argument I was making and don't seem to care.

[–] BlameThePeacock@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol, they're censoring the small R word.

If I'm not supposed to trust your argument in your original comment, then pray tell me what exactly is your arguement?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I see, you're not a racial bigot, you're just an ableist bigot. Got it.

And maybe I will consider talking to you about my argument when you admit you don't actually know.

I won't be holding my breath, I'm sure you're far too busy saying bigoted things about disabled people.

[–] BlameThePeacock@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You provided an argument, I tore it down, and you moved the goalposts, and now you won't even tell me where the goalposts are. Great conversation here.

At the end of the day, Trans women are going to get banned from competitive sport in the women's divisions. Which is how it should be. I wish them well in everything else they want to do in life.

Not a shock you're continuing to lie rather than admit you don't actually know what my argument was, much like it's not a shock about your being bigoted against the disabled.
