The Rules

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I'm fine with the down votes. Dissenting views are important even when unpopular or wrong. Many times in history those dissents have been used as a beacon, showing the way for future generations like Benjamin Curtis's in Dred Scott.

If on occasion it means I lose fake Internet point for ensuring spaces don't become echo chambers, that's a price I'm willing to pay.
