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.

The TLDR is that this does not allow any medical testing on children without parental consent. Guess who occasionally is the rapist?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 63 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Much more than occasionally, horrific as that is.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 2 years ago

It's almost always someone the child knows, not some shadowy evil cabal.

[–] TwinTusks@bitforged.space 2 points 2 years ago

disgusting.

Either a parent/legal guardian was the perp, or they allowed it to happen

[–] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 41 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It was probably intentional.

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They were alerted that this would be an issue and they went forward with no exceptions anyway. Might want to have some interviews with the children of Republican legislators in Idaho...

Except you ✨ c a n ' t ✨

Isn't it amazing how many of these laws seem to protect pedophiles? Almost hard to believe it's a coincidence.

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We gotta protect the kids amirite?

And they call LGBTQ+ people groomers.

[–] ravhall@discuss.online 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yet another Idaho law letting Christians rape their kids. Or, is it not rape anymore when you own them?

[–] Brutticus@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Its way worse that that. They can protect people who sexually assault them.

"It's once pedophiles have kids, that they really come into their own." - Gary Delaney.

[–] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Much to the GOP’s delight!

Idaho, now pedophile friendly. Is this really what you want your state motto to be????
