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.

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.

This is what I'm saying! But Evil lives on forever

I’m convinced Henry Kissinger made a deal with a demon back in the 60s that feeds him the souls of babies to keep him alive.

MF was born in the Weimar Republic. Vietnam was his midlife crisis hobby.

Honest question, but how is Trump still alive? He's in his late seventies, apparently eats McDonalds most days with an ungodly amount of diet coke, and looks like he hasn't exercised since the 80's.

He'll be in his 80's if he gets another term, and given his lifestyle, the stresses of business/politics, and the constant travel, I simply cannot see him continuing. I know Biden is 80, but at least he looks like he's looked at a vegetable or had a brisk walk this year...

Pretty sure a bunch of them live off spite and hatred. My kindest grandparents passed away first, and the meanest one is still somehow kicking.

I've always said, when he dies, the right wing nutters are going to go fucking BALLiSTIC with conspiracy theories, and De Santis or whoever takes over will fan the flames and accuse Biden or Hillary or whoever the fuck of having him assassinated and shits going to melt down fast.
