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.

I wonder if there's a country or group of countries that will save Americans that are still decent human beings?
The way things are going, it's getting harder and harder to see the good in America. I know not everyone is like what we see in the news, but there's clearly enough to allow things to keep happening. I feel sorry for the regular people in America.
Yeah, I feel like I have to add in a disclaimer now whenever I tell someone I’m American. ‘Oh and btw Fuck Trump!’ lol

I never understand this view because most people I know are absent from any thought aside from consuming and materialistic escapism. Basically no one I know doesn't support trump.
Ignorance is evil. It doesn't take education to be a basic decent human being.
The revolution will not be televised
Having seen how the world treats Russian citizens, no.
But that is later, after things get worse. Fur now there are plenty of options for those who have money, or are brave, or talented or some combination. Everyone else here will suffer through it
There are dozens of us, I’m thinking when it gets really bad I’ll start a twelve step support group on how to deal with the fallout
I'm guessing that this is pretty straightforward politicking. A lot of the populist-right crowd in the US has historically been adamantly Protestant. Catholics were also a big issue for the KKK, too.
Her district is Georgia's 14th:

Hmm.
Yeah, it's mostly not very Catholic, but Whitfield County is a notable exception. Gordon County, which is also somewhat-Catholic, isn't in her district.

Looks like Whitfield County has a population of 103,687, so maybe an eighth of her constituents.

And it looks like that county had the weakest support for Trump of all the counties in her district (though it was still pretty overwhelmingly pro-Trump, 71.9% in favor of Trump versus 27.5% for Harris).
EDIT: Might irritate some of the MAGA crowd elsewhere in the US, though. And probably not the sort of thing that'd go over well with the right in Poland...
