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.

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.
Ya know what would be cool? Some fucking accountability.
Musk should be required to pay major monetary fines for all this shit.
When his doge idiots broke into that non profit the other day, jail time and fines for all involved (including any crooked cops who helped).
Arrest musk. No bail.
I want to see some actual damn teeth here when felon inevitably looks to not comply, throw his ass personally in jail.
And when the non-elected president will suffer poor's consequences?
Elon: "No" Judge: "Okay, welp, I tried."
Without enforcement, the law means nothing.
All the employees were fired, weren't they? Who exactly are they restoring access for?
Oh boy, I can't wait for ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOTHING to come of this.
I'm on the edge of my seat!
I don't think that Trump had a "deep state" of people in the Executive Branch who don't like him and were out to get him before, but he's doing a pretty remarkable job of manufacturing that state of affairs.
Musk should be deported back to SA
But then he would be free.
