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.

This is c/news, not c/politics. I do not participate in c/politics specifically due to the group of people on lemmy.world I was talking about.

And, for the millionth time, I wasn't painting with a broad brush. I was talking about a specific group of people. A group of people who I defined.

No matter how much you want to try to gaslight me into saying what I didn't say, it won't work. So stop trying.

I'm sure you didn't mean it that way, but I'm just saying my experience has been that if you express any kind of left position which falls outside of liberal media orthodoxy these days you get called a tankie, hence why I took your usage broadly.

You don't need to accuse me of gaslighting you, just a weird way to have a conversation.

Oh, now I didn't mean it that way. After telling you god knows how many times? Now suddenly I'm innocent of what you've been accusing me of?

Conversation? This has been you attacking and attacking and attacking. For something I didn't even fucking say.

I'm sorry if I've been making you feel attacked, but people use the world broadly so that's how I took your meaning in the original context. I'm not trying to goad you and I'll disengage after this.
