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.

Remember how the first time around, there was all sorts of attention on that he would have to put his interests into a blind trust, but then he just put his shitty kids "in charge" for a while?

Notice how nobody is saying a fucking thing about that now?

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 38 points 1 year ago

Well he did comment on it saying something like "I thought I would have to do it but it wasn't legally necessary so I just didn't do it".

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Well we all made a big deal about it last time and he just got away with it. Why waste our energy on that now? It's tiring

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 48 points 1 year ago

Those kids would be real upset if they knew about conflicts of interest.

His Nazi concentration camps are a bit more of a concern to me but I guess I will be concerned about this too.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Source on that? Not trying to be a dick but I hadn't heard him talk about Nazi concentration camps yet

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago

Ha ha ha are you kidding me? Of course he does not call his camps for deportations Nazi concentration camps.

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You know Nazi concentration camp was once a smoke screen/euphemism for something far worse, right? Concentration camp was a warm and fuzzy enough of a term to be used by other countries, US included.

Of course Trump is not going to call his camps concentration camps, we are just going to have yet another euphemistic term that no one will dare to use outside of historical context 20 years from now.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Theyve already coined the term, deportation camp.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I know and simply presuming that trumpmia already construction mass death camps is a wee bit far, even for the maga cult

[–] lost_faith@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Search texas land sale for deportation obviously not using the same terms, but a rose by any other name
