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.

Yeah, cops don't do things like checks notes

Flashbang a baby...

Repeatedly publicly execute non-resisting people with no trial or process...

Stand around not only allowing a school shooter to execute children but actively preventing parents from getting to their children...

They've always been chuds, but white people have been allowed to pretend they aren't by playing along with the convenient fiction that all black people are dangerous criminals who deserve to die

Edit: Trusting cops LITERALLY GOT THE PEOPLE IN THE NEWS ARTICLE WE ARE COMMENTING ON SHOT

I swear the Internet breeds a certain kind of idiot allergic to reading comprehension.

As bad as cops are, there are material constraints placed on them. Thats the reality you are in. They aren't always enforced, they aren't good enough, but they exist.

There are no constraints on a 3%'er.

I've lined up against the PPB and I've lined up against Proud Boys.

I'm not fucking remotely concerned about the PPB in the same way that I am about white nationalists.

And if your 🪱 🧠 is to far gone to comprehend the difference, leave the decisions to people who have some experience.
