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.

All should be fired

Please define fired - Firing squad, burned at the stake, roasted as a steak...

Just asking.

Literally fucked over the entire world.

Idk. Pinching off the global supply of fossil fuels at the urethra might actually save more people than it kills in the long run.

Fucking nightmarish way to go about it, but Trump may go down in history as the single most influential US President when it comes to curbing carbon emissions.

The only silver lining here: this may be the push needed towards alternative fuel sources. Nuclear and solar/wind plz?

Fed feet first into a wood chipper would also be an acceptable solution.

I.... don't really care which part goes in first to be real with you.

[–] DiarrheaSommelier@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

Feet first they get to suffer and contemplate exactly what is happening to them, and their powerlessness.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

Face first makes less noise IMO.

Shouldn't it be the offense secretary in this case. As leader of the department of war.

And being an offensive prick, ofcourse.

Well of COURSE he refuses to speculate! He wants it to go on forever!
