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.

America,
You're a broken country.
Sincerely,
The rest of the world
It seems to me that a loud contingent of the US is still in denial, which is probably who is that comment is directed toward.
Also, what is a random citizen from another country supposed to do, exactly?
Dunno but reading some of y'all's comments about this shit stinks of such a hard unawareness
You all really see the videos and pictures of protestors being beaten in America all the time and act like there's never a single person trying. Don't act like you all don't see them either because those comments are in this thread too
Probably because we (Americans) bomb the shit out of countries that don't play nice with us. I feel like us American citizens should be doing something about that.
Its not their job. Its ours to fix this.
What the fuck is my small country in the Pacific ocean supposed to do?
The entire world has shown you that there are other ways to live. There are so many indices of things like health, education, happiness etc. available which show you that you suck at treating people well, but all America does is keep hosing shit everywhere
Tell me how to help you, and I will
I'm getting a good person out of your festering shithole right now, but I can't drag all of you out, nor do I want to. There are too many of you who deserve exactly the pain that they have cheered for, without realising that they are going to feel it just as much as the people they hoped to hurt
Your whole fucking county was started with, grown by, and continues to run on cruelty
Tell me again what I should do for you.
It’s not the responsibility of other countries to manage us government. It’s the citizens responsibility.
