Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Figures. He is, however, the better choice so hopefully this helps.
I'm convinced these people are trolls. No one can be this stupid and consider not voting for Biden over it...its exactly what trumpers would want. They know these votes aren't going for trump, so stopping them going to Biden is the best they can hope for... And it's fucking working. Better yet, people have genuinely fallen for it and spread it on behalf of the troll farms.
Lol nope, I hate both of the old out of touch fucks they give you the choice of. Not telling you or anyone else not to vote simply saying, Of course a politician does something good they could have done the entire time they were in office for years before this months away from an election.
However, although I agree with you on biden being a better choice he is far from a GOOD choice. And everyone acting like that isn't true is also trolling. Sure vote for him over the literal tyrant, but we still should acknowledge that it is abaolutely fucked up that they have let this become the only two choices. That part is what people should acknowledge. I'll vote for dude but its literally like voting for the piece of shit that stinks just a little less. Its crazy that its this way.
Anyway, I was just simply saying that yeah of course dude waits until 4 months out to help the little guy for votes. They all do this and always have, but since you seemed to be curious on my opinion further than that, there it is.
Thanks, that puts my mind at ease. Emotions are running rampant and comments like the first one are dangerous in my opinion.
But it's someone that is old and not ideal vs someone with potential of going down into history books as second Hitler, if there would be any books left that is...
