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.
Musk - who frequently champions his commitment to free speech - shared a post on X containing the comments, and stated: "they have broken the law".
Yeah, he doesn't give a rats ass about the law. Or, more specifically, he only cares about the laws that protect him, but he doesn't give a rats ass about the laws that are meant to protect others, often from people like him.
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
Also from that post.
There is no such thing as liberalism — or progressivism, etc.
There is only conservatism. No other political philosophy actually exists; by the political analogue of Gresham’s Law, conservatism has driven every other idea out of circulation.
There might be, and should be, anti-conservatism; but it does not yet exist.
I'm not sure if this is your construction, but it's delightfully (and frightfully) succint.
Defintely not, been around since 2018.
Thank you for enriching me.
Thank you for being enrichable.
"They have broken the law when they aren't even rich!"
fElon Musk.
Protect, but not bind, bind, but not protect.
Spez is a cuck
Just lets Musk fuck Reddit right in front of him
Reddit is slobbering all over the ring at this point
At this point you can shove an axle into Aaron Schwartz's grave and use his rotation to fully power the Earth in perpetuity. Again.
Musk - who frequently champions his commitment to free speech
LOL
The complete thought policing of the internet is starting. All free speech absolutists are coming for free thought.
We need anyone who is still on Reddit or has an old account to get over there and let folks know that there is a great community here and we would welcome them!
I seem to recall plenty of Luigi posts being removed/locked here
There is no "here" here. They're being removed on some websites, and not on others.
That's exactly right. Different instances will be more sensitive to different issues, but hopefully that means there's a place for everything.
There are instances where posting guillotines will be removed and there are instances where that's permitted but pictures of Winnie the Pooh might be removed.
If people want to talk about anti-authoritarian violence, there is lemmygrad, etc.
I'm more concerned with the fact that a lot of reddit LGBT and particularly trans communities were banned. That could never happen on blahaj.
I meant a certain instance on lemmy
That's why we should be conscientious about directing communities to an appropriate instance. If they want to post about political violence, there's a place for that.
If they are LGBT, particularly trans, then blahaj is particularly well suited for example.
Just because I happen to be on .world doesn't mean I necessarily think it's the best place for every community. I would have to be pretty stupid to come to the Fediverse and oppose Federation.
r/enoughmuskspam still alive and well.
Like laws still matter.
Do they though?
Most of us are still operating under the assumption that rules still matter, even tho there is proof they don't.
It's hard to turn one's back on social order when chaos is screaming in our faces.
You can not accept reality all you want, but it's still reality.
True. It's gonna take a minute for us to see it tho.
Feeling pretty good about not being on that trash website anymore.
