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.

Tinfoil hat, perpetually mad at the government types still silent for some reason.
Yeah seriously, where's all those friggin "Molon Labe" kids now? "2nd protects the 1st"? "Tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty"? "No step on snek"? "Don't agree with you but will fight to the death for your right to say it"? "What did you just say to me you little bitch I'm a navy seal with over 99 confirmed kills"? (Lol)
Well here it is. The gubbmint wants to monitor your thoughts with the help of hidden microphones everywhere, hacking your phone, and probably space lasers. They want to biometric scan you and your kids just to allow access to electronic devices. They're building databases and literally rounding people up they don't like and putting them in concentration camps, even right here on home soil, no less! They're murdering U.S citzens right here in our cities.
I thought we'd at least be allies with these types, with some general disagreements on the finer points, but these big tough sheepdoggy guys that seemingly adored the Constitution and AR-15s that were seemingly EVERYWHERE, are suddenly all disappeared, or getting fantastic glutes from all that goose stepping.
Bunch'a pathetic mall ninjas. It's up to us to be training and looking after each other if we want any chance of brighter days ahead.
For real, we had to listen to these idiots for decades and now they seem completely silent when everything they’ve raged against for so long has finally manifested.
