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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.

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.

Prime example of the "humanity" I've come to love and respect in my fellow "man."

That comment you're replying to might not be a "I don't care about the pain and suffering of old people" so much as a "I don't like it when evil media companies exploit the pain and suffering of famous old people for click bait headlines," which I don't really agree with (talking about problems is how problems get fixed imo and bad elder care is a problem), but it's a take in good company (arc)

They MIGHT also be three raccoons in a trenchcoat. I dunno.

Edit: Nevermind. With their attitude on display, it's obviously three chihuahuas in a muumuu.
