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.

No, the original one had bipartisan, I wouldn't post something I didn't believe. You must have missed it.

It feels ridiculous to be accused of not thinking the republicans didn't side with capital, against the working class.

You added that word after you edited your post. This is some seriously bad gaslighting.

Bro look at my post history, do you really think I support the other party of capital? The party of Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump?

I prefer to look at modlog histories.

I was banned from Ukraine and NCD for the incredibly hot take of "War is bad".

I was banned from History Porn for showing the video of Tank Man and explaining the context and where the massacre occurred. This is easy enough to look up on wikipedia, there's NSFL pictures that corroborate as much.

For political memes, IIRC it was some discussion about To Kill A Mocking Bird, the civil rights movement, and MLK's perspective on white moderates.

Funny how we only have your word to go on for all of that. Also funny that multiple people have accused you of dishonesty, but it's always them and not you.

You could look them up the posts in question if you genuinely believed I was being dishonest about any of that.

Hell shit just sort my posts by controversial and check their responses. Liberals tend to accuse anything that doesn't align with their worldview or paint their team in a glowing light of dishonesty because they almost never encounter anything left of liberalism so it must be a scary foreigner trying to trick them.
