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.

A lot of people are saying Trump going to Epstein's island dozens of times to rape kids was bad

But Maxwell said that she never saw Trump act in an inappropriate manner.

She said that shortly after requesting a pardon and then being moved to a less secure prison.

Buuut that's totally unrelated, right?

After congratulating Trump on his "historic victory" and expressing her admiration for him at the start of it. The ass-kissing was so obvious it was embarrassing.

Gym Jordan bought it. Maybe because if he can sell pedophilia to others, that black cloud will stop hanging over his head.

[–] gramie@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago

The thing is that Trump doesn't understand subtlety, and public displays of fealty are what really get him off.

Of course, this all depends on her definition of "inappropriate". Because I can guarantee her definition does not match mine.

I mean she just seems to be dripping head to toe in honesty. I totally believe it. /s

A convicted felon's personal attorney interviewed another convicted felon, and they all agreed that neither convicted felon did anything wrong.

News at 11.

I forget, is there a "miss manners" kind of thing for appropriate behavior on a child rape island? Because I'm thinking she might consider it inappropriate to not rape the children.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 16 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The difference is a lot of people ARE saying him raping kids was bad. Aside from him, I don't think anyone else has said they want him to be dictator

[–] mikenurre@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago

Plenty of bootlickers are. Guarantee Stephen Miller is one of them. But those that are saying it are thinking about who they want next after this clown show.
