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

TLDR

But by skimming a few lines here and there, I can see that you never addressed any of your false statements. Instead, you seemed to blather on about political divides or some nonsense. Going on an unrelated tirade is a typical defense tactic used by conservatives attempting to obfuscate their deception when called out. They are still the ramblings of someone who thinks Lincoln was the leader of the conservatives of his time! 🤣LOL 😅

Nothing in your panicked, defensive comment suggests that you are capable of entering a dialogue in good faith. So, run along back to Truth Social or NAMBLA or wherever your kind linger these days and tell them all how cool you are for trolling the libs. You sure got us! Good one!

Youre a major dick if you can't be assed to read someone's comment. It is not cool, and very telling of child like behavior, I see it being all too common. It does not matter what the subject of his comment says, be a respectful person and do what they have done for you, humored you and read your comment.
