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.

Right, only Trump's government should have guns. Fuck the minorities
Consistent gun laws is not a huge ask. It’s simple fucking common sense. And anyway what’s the worry? We built a society so slavishly devoted to guns that children are routinely mowed down by gunfire and nothing happens. Relax.
Yea! The US government would never be able to cope with armed minorities. It makes perfect sense if you don't think about it.
It's so frustrating when people on the Left buy into the red-neck 2A bullshit. Maybe y'all are trying to honor Charlie Kirk by promoting his views.
How many times has the US government gone up against farmers and gotten nowhere? When the government has a monopoly on violence, liberty is dead. The US government has proven itself evil time and time again through its actions all over the world, and you want them to be the only ones who are armed?
When the fascist thugs kick your door in, who is going to defend you? When they're gunning down your neighbors in the street, who is going to defend you? When they are marching you and your family one by one into the gas chambers, who is going to defend you? Nobody, because you gave the fascists all the guns.
Its frustrating when people try to pretend they're on the left while spouting blatant pro-fascist propaganda. "Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary."
