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 article felt weirdly exploitative to me. Like, leave the young woman alone to heal in peace.

Totally agreed. "Let's describe her physical appearance multiple times in detail while only mildly blurring her photos" Seems like they are reaching for content.

And whether or not she's wearing makeup in every picture. Very strange article.

It's kind of amazing they managed to grab a 15 year old out of a crowded stadium. The fact that they're doing that is newsworthy. More details on the grabbing part would have been helpful (but also likely embarrassing).

Educate your kids on what to do in situations like this.

Agreed. Most people think this sort of trafficking isn’t possible in the US, so they are woefully unprepared to recognize a potential kidnapping before it’s too late.

The parents are sharing these images for the first time ever, because they say their daughter wants her story heard. They say she is just not ready to do it herself.

Exactly. It’s salaciousness dressed up as a caring story. And why the fuck would they release the name and breed of the puppy!? Let the young woman have some fucking privacy.
