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.


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. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


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.


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.


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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


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.

That is your baseless opinion fueled by an emotional reaction to being told to work for your dreams. Lack of discipline would be a bigger problem in my honest opinion.

Your argument is invalid because you're appealing to a genetic fallacy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_fallacy

You know nothing about me. You are impugning my motive based on zero evidence. You fail to directly refute my basic argument, which is that your experiences are not universalisable. Instead you grasp for straws.

You know nothing about me

I know you want to keep paying rent so you don't have to change your comfortable circumstances. Your landlord does deserve a long holiday tho, keep paying :)

Again you're not refuting my point, you're just attacking me and using a genetic fallacy.

You have no point to refute. Unless “universlisable” is your point, at which point I'd ask you to source up on that claim, but I wont bully you into it. I'd rather try to invoke positive change in you, since you are a failure and I don't like dealing with losers. You have a few things in life to rejig, and your attitude towards work is one of them. Start working, quit bitching, buy a house.
