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.
"But experts argue mass deportations are unlikely in the short term"
Okay, but like. Long term planning is a thing. The long term is in fact something you need to consider in the present, especially for an action that you might only have a limited window to undertake
Yeah, the Nazis didn't start rounding up Jewish people immediately either
I've been trying to explain that to my mother, who doesn't want us leaving. She's Jewish. She should know better, but she thinks we're overreacting. Our daughter is queer, so we don't think we are. I said to her, Kristalnacht didn't happen on day one, but by the time it happened, it was too late.
Every thing trumpians disagree with or is pure fascism is a joke to them.
Everything is fake news, so if Trump says something stupid, he just says it's fake
Trump will be using the justice department and IRS to attack his enemies, and by the time people realize what is happening, it will be difficult to go back
It's not the Justice or IRS or even FBI/CIA I worry about. Trump said somewhere that he'd have no problem using the US Military against Americans. He probably already has a plan to replace all the generals who might have a conscience or be loyal to the consititution (and not him).
Racists and other scumbags see this as an absolute win.
cities like Boston, New Jersey, and Canada
Even the Oxford comma couldn't save that one.
Canada is a safe haven city.
People like Kim Kardashian, Hercules, and the statue of liberty
We want you to leave and stop using our country's services and supports .... but we want you to stay as slaves that we can abuse.
Let's see how long it takes for people to go "Please come back"
How long did it take the brexiters?
Like 3 years iirc. Though they started getting quite within a couple months and by a year in few people were defending it already.
Haitian workers have revitalized Springfield’s economy, and their departure could severely impact local businesses and neighborhoods.
Sounds like wishful thinking, but I certainly hope so. I hope people there can't get the services they need because the rednecks don't want you do the jobs the Haitians were doing.
But, probably not.
there have been several interviews with local business owners in the last few months and they've said publicly that the Haitian influx completely saved their city's economy
I can believe it, and I really do hope it has an impact. After this election, I'm doubly pessimistic about progressive outcomes.
Maybe the Haitians' employers in Springfield should have campaigned harder against Trump.
Or maybe even Ohio politicians in their state's economic interest?
But no....
