2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

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.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

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.

The trucking industry has also been fighting the Environmental Protection Agency’s new emissions standards for heavy-duty trucks — another rule that Vance and his colleagues tried to kill.

You would think someone who wants people to have more children would want to preserve the environment and improve it. But I am sure people like this somehow want to believe that they will be immune to the negative consequences of such decision making. The environment impacts us all, you can’t live in an enclosure safe from the detrimental effects of a hostile or unlivable planet.

He's a fucking Catholic. Guarantee he doesn't even believe in human caused climate change (at least as far as the character JD Vance is concerned, who knows what the person playing Peter Thiel's sock puppet actually thinks)

Oh he doesn’t want the children to actually be healthy or prosper, just bring them into the world.
