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.
Jesus christ. Unidentifiable people just kidnap you for expressing an opinion. This was a legal resident, so we're watching the rule of law disappear.
I hoped I was being dramatic when I made a comment a few months ago how Hitler took full control in only three months after being appointed. I thought we'd have a few years at least.
But here we are, two months in, and right on track.
Read Takeover: Hitler's Final Rise to Power for some scary shit about the last six months before he gained office and how he didn't have a majority when it happened. It's exactly this. We're fucked.
This is what the 2A folks are preparing for and now that it's happening, we can probably expect crickets from them.
Carry a firearm to make surprise arrests spicy. At this point there isn't much left for a common person to do except become dangerous.
That or do some research and start a list of names of the DHS and ICE employees. We need to fight back with the soft power of doxxing.
I low key have.
Gestapo.
Call the police
We ARE the police!
Yup. Everyone has power fantasies about standing up to the "patriarchy" and "fascism" from the safety and comfort of their home. Until shit suddenly gets real. There is no help to call. If you're lucky you get a kangaroo-court date where they will sentence you into oblivion. If not, you just disappear. Like she has.
How many hours have you been in the gym this week? How many guns do you own? If the answer is "not too many", then you are not peaceful, you are harmless.
First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me
Hey Boston, I expect better from you.
