News
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.

Plus between 800,000 and 1,000,000 people around the world wherever USaid was providing medical care and food for people in bad conditions, like remote villages, refugees and subsistence farms impacted by weather and famine and so many more souls that we gave hope and health to for pennies a year.
Just the most absolute cruel and heartless people in the world.
Imagine the person you love the most in life, sick and needing medicine and suddenly the only source of this cheap care tells you one day "Nah, you're on you're own" and having to watch that person die because some politician somewhere decided to make a performative statement about "empathy and wokeness"
I don't know about anyone else, but I would probably swear to burn the whole world down in revenge. The US is going to have massive problems that we fully deserve.
Honestly, the numbers thing is really bugging me. We are fixated on the dozens of people directly targeted by attacks, but when the toll becomes higher than a few hundred, suddenly it's abstract and people don't seem to care nearly as much when it's the exact same intention and consequence as if someone went and shot these people.
They burned medical supplies. They literally incinerated them. Disgusting.
Oh yeah, how could americans possibly know what it's like to die of preventable illness because treatment is unavailable to them?
The number of americans sacrificed to health insurance companies every year is no small number either if it could be accurately counted.
