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, 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.

Its not hostility to the US. Its not wanting to get ICE'ed or have to put up with facists
Should be "Both, why not?"
That's the US though. We voted for this. I understand not wanting to be hostile to some individual citizens or whatever, but this is who we are as a country. The days of Trump being an aberration are long behind us.
We succeeded -- against long odds and with more than a few scrapes and bruises -- at getting rid of this creep five years ago and then pretty overwhelmingly voted to put him back in.
I really wish people would've remembered how close to ruin we came on January 6th, and remembered all of the lies, incompetence, and malice of 2017-2020 but they seemingly forgot about all of it and put his fucking ignorant ass back in there.
I thought it was something akin to a miracle that we got him out of that office the first time. Nobody else seems to have shared that belief.
The people that voted for him didn't forget anything. They believe the lies. They want the malice. Just go watch some interviews of random supporters at his rallies. They are ignorant and unwilling to accept evidence in front of their faces.
There are countries you don’t want to visit, because you could lose your life, organs, and/or money (not necessarily in that order). There are also some places, where you’ll also get thrown in jail for strange reasons, or no reason at all. Nowadays, when people think of countries to avoid, they also group USA with places like North Korea, Mali, Russia, China, Syria, Afghanistan etc.
Why did I watch that documentary about the central park of New York, just when it became clear I won’t be traveling there. Might as well get even more hyped by watching documentaries about the amazing cities of ancient Babylon or the legendary library of Damascus. Good luck trying to have a vacation in those places.
