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 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.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

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.

Hello! I was wrong about Democrat support for Gaza. It's good to admit when you were wrong.

Never admitting we are wrong and rationalizing everything to fit our point of view is how people become Trumpers.

In what sense? I never had any doubt he was quilty!

I'm genuinely (pleasantly) shocked that 12 people agreed and found him guilty.

I am still doubting, he won't see a single day behind bars. He'll get a slap on the wrist.

I want to be wrong. I want to be wrong so badly.

I am not. I think he will be sentenced. It would be very dumb if I believed that. I just don't believe his sentence will result in jail time.

Also, I will never say Trump is too old to serve. Fuck they guy, let him rot. He just won't.

Getting ready to vote for him as president, again. 🙄

This changes nothing for Republicans. They still love him like a battered wife loves their husband.
