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 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.


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.

Blame the cops. At this rate working these jobs you gotta know you're scum. They forfeit their value

What an absolutely dystopian future we're in.

Reporter in video describes the scene like nothing very interesting is happening, like it's all perfectly normal and mundane to zip-tie the hands of people in wheelchairs behind their back or pulled into unnatural and painful-looking positions, all the while repeating the phrase "big beautiful bill" over and over with a straight face. Our "news media" is nothing but propaganda and apologia for the regime.

Whoo boy, looks like the .world mods are enforcing silent compliance with fascist brutality again, thats a lot of highly upvoted deleted comments.

One of these days they'll suck the boot so far down their throats they'll asphyxiatiate, but at least they'll pass with joyful tears in their eyes.

Whenever I see "Removed by mod" on a .world community, I know it probably said something I agree with. News communities shouldn't be hosted there.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Maybe, but people need to learn to speak in plausible deniability. You can check the user's moderation history to see what they said. Fascists were able to advance their ideas without getting shutdown with indirect speak and double talk. Maybe we need to learn the same.

My comment was oblique; I agreed with an historical quote then made a LOTR reference. No overt calls for violence. Still removed.

e: Please check my moderation history to see what I said. I was the 3rd comment in that thread.

They were talking about watering the tree of liberty. I'm sure you can find the correct quote and infer who was being referenced.

Whenever I see "Removed by mod" I check the mod log to see what was said. Its one of the best ways to get me to read and up/down vote something.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Patriots and tyrants, yep.

It needs a lot of watering.

Are there recommended news subs that aren't hosted on .world?

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (16 children)

!news@beehaw.org has lots of subscribers.

(e: ~23k)

[–] skuzz@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 hours ago

Wow does Donald Trump suck ass.

And people voted enthusiastically for this clown.

[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 45 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The Police are neither serving nor protecting. Fuck the fascists.

[–] j0ester@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They’re serving and protecting the billionaires.

As a disabled and queer woman, 3 categories that are now under attack, this makes me very angry. I’ll just say [removed].
