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.

Another day another insane comment that would have tanked any other candidate...yall remember when that dude yelled funny and it tanked his whole political career? I am starting to miss those days.

Howard Dean. Yeah…he seemed awesome. This timeline is a suckfest, and not in a good way.

And it was because the microphone recording him wasn't picking up how loud the crowd was. The yell sounds fine if you hear it with the crowd noise as Dean was hearing it.

Maybe he should run again and just go balls to the wall crazy, everything out there, because I guess that’s what’s OK now?

In order for you to not look like a demented POS you need

“To make America great you really have to get the news shaped up,” Trump told Fox News Saturday morning.

Thanks, Kim Jon Trump for saying that out loud.

"America First" was the slogan of the American Nazi party before WWII. His similar phrase, considering the things he marries it to, has got to be deliberate.
