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.

It's pump & dump time, boys! Squeeze those poors!

Yep. Looks like there was an allocation release on the 18th.

There are schedules times when portions of the 80% holdings can be sold. Looks like it's spread over a three year period.

For anyone looking to get in on the grift, it appears like the next even is in July.

Someone front ran this particular annoucement though with buys jumping just before the update. Anyone getting in now are just lower in the Ponzi scheme

Hey Google. How do you short trump's meme coin?

[–] MordercaSkurwysyn@lemm.ee 17 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's a weird cult they have going on there. I'm quite sure people weren't this crazy 20 years ago. In my country we are having elections this year and out of curiosity I watched debates from the 90s, I was astonished that there was at least some discourse, conversation and that politicians were talking about real problems while bringing up real data. Idiocracy seems more real than ever.

Idk what it is about Trump that has completely broken people's brains. I know a lot of people who were relatively normal or at least not really interested in politics before Trump and are now completely obsessed like this.

I think electing a black man (twice) broke a lot of people's brains, and when Trump came along he said the stupid, hateful shit they were thinking, they latched on.

A bunch of insecure racist losers.

Okay, but why is the same happening in other countries?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Because the US is a massive exporter of media/culture

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

So I've been scratching my head so long as I ponder how an unofficial digital currency officially named after and endorsed by the sitting president, an elected official officially bound to ethical legal standards, is somehow a thing that's still happening out in the open, unchallenged, that I've finally reached the arachnoid mater and am on the cusp of accessing my grey matter within the month.

kings can't commit crimes

Because both parties let corruption run unchecked for so long that at this point pretty much everything is legal and no one cares.

[–] boydster@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago

He'll pull the ole switcheroo and send the president of the senate instead due to a tee time scheduling conflict

ICE is also secretly invited to the dinner. The dinner is also McNuggets

[–] medicsofanarchy@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Or, as we call it, "prostitution". Except instead of a teenth of crack and $5, the president is available for a meme coin.

Afterwards, get yourself checked.
