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.
I'll never stop being cynically amused by the fact that the self-styled American patriots are letting the Russian government tell them how to vote.
You're talking about these people.
Are these the tankies everyone's always talking about?
The tankies are the “left-wing” equivalent of these people. All in all they are eerily similar. They both support different forms of facism.
Or the same form, with a different coat of paint.
Because they love the Russian government. It looks just like their ideal government, just Protestant and English-speaking instead of Orthodox and Russian-speaking.
I guess the anything in 'anything to own the libs' includes selling out your country and constitution to the highest bidder.
Some people never learn the cool kid in school seldom acts on your behalf, usually theirs.
sigh this is going to be a shitty couple weeks isn't it?
Couple weeks? That's cute. This shit is going until inauguration day at least.
At least until he crooks, then they'll try to make him a martyr. Expect a manufactured Regan style legacy.
This could be minimum of 4 years of hell.
I looked over at Pikachu for a reaction, but he's just so tired.
I'm with Pikachu
Try to go and post this on Lemmy.ml
@davel@lemmy.ml is adamant Russian propaganda and misinformation Don't exist. I wonder who would argue such a thing?
Ah he doesn’t argue as much when he can’t ban people for disagreeing with his nonsense
So this is basically the point of federation isn't it? So there can always be 'bad guy' instances that we never stop talking about? PvP social media?
How does a video of Haitian immigrants voting illegally versus legally look different? Are they wearing signs or maybe one of those "Hi! My name is..." stickers with "Illegally Voting Haitian Immigrant" written in? Or maybe it's just obvious because they present passports written on the back of cereal boxes and the election worker is giving big comic winks and saying "sign here US citizen legally allowed to vote." I guess it doesn't matter what the video shows. It's probably some Bigfoot jerky video with garbled audio with a caption saying "Haitian immigrants voting illegally."
I'm pretty sure the Haitans in the photo are not voting. I've never gotten gas station quality hot food when I've voted.
You need to find a better voting location. Mine has churros and Mt Dew.
Nice. There's never a line so it's not a big deal. And it's not like you can choose anyways (election day)
It doesn't matter. The intended audience has already decided that they want to believe Trump and immigrants are bad and they vote illegally.
Is there a /noshitsherlock community yet?
Illegal Immigrants cannot vote. No matter how much chuds want it to be true it just isnt. Hell we lock up natural born citizens for voting at the wrong fking location when they're fully legal to vote. Our shit is stupidly hard locked down.
I'm of the opinion that we should have switched to all digital a decade ago. Fuck it. Lets see those results in real time. But that would require our leaders to have enough modern knowledge about computing systems to be able to understand the basics of whats going on. These fkin' clowns are all "DoeS tHE TikToK coNnEct t0 mY wIfi?" Like yeah Harold I'm sure you could shoe a horse like a mfer back during the civil war, now find your downloads folder for me.
I can still shoe a horse, and I'm almost always the tech support in the house.....
And I can rebuild carburators. Meant no disrespect to the equine enjoyers in our midst. Was simply using it as an example.
No worries!
#KillRacingNotHorses
When do we finally decide that this hostile enemy action and act accordingly? Why do we not have our own army of internet warriors?
Us been doing this for decades
Do you have any examples?
Reddit posted their own site metrics showing much of the traffic came from a US army base. It's a US propaganda outlet.
Pentagon ran secret anti-vax campaign to undermine China during pandemic
It wasn't just China either.
