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. 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.

You're free to clarify at any point.

Looks to me like you strawmanned them.

[–] steakmeout 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks to me like you agree with them.

[–] afraid_of_zombies 1 points 1 year ago

Agree or not won't change the logic of what you said.

Are you open to changing your view on aspects of this and discussing this topic with nuance?

[–] steakmeout 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You proferred the opinion so you need to clarify. I don't need to be open to what you consider nuance.

[–] Galluf -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you for your acknowledgement that you're unwilling to look at this situation with the level of nuance required.

[–] steakmeout 2 points 1 year ago

That isn't what I said and you know it. If you feel misunderstood the onus is solely on you to clarify any misunderstanding. Pretending that you're making this about me isn't going to change your bad take or initial downvotes.
