News
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 biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
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. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
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, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. 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 or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
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.

Ignorant as always. Those "jackbooted thugs" are the cashiers, shelf stockers, accountants, factory workers, moms, dad, brothers, and sisters you see in your life everyday.
How do you plan to accomplish anything with them poised against you? Keep crying and whining while accomplishing nothing but your own demise. Even us more moderate lefties are sick of you fuck wits.
Those jackbooted thugs are people in a military uniform holding guns and enforcing the will of a fascist leader.
I don't really give a fuck what they do the rest of the year. They could even watch Anime for all I care.
Make it clear that they are The Enemy. They don't get a "thank you for your service" while they are beating on a civilian. Make it clear that they are with us or against us. Rather than letting them win until they decide they don't want to anymore.
Y'all spent so much time playing call of duty that you would be the ones telling the guard marching you into the gas chamber that it wasn't their fault and chastising the granny who spit on them.
For anyone buying this bullshit: Pretend it is about cops. If you speak out against cops then how are they ever going to end up on your side? So just keep crying and whining while the real heroes give the cop sexually assaulting someone in the back of a cruiser some gatorade.
Lol, little bro you should touch grass more often. Your projection is showing and you're making up reality. Now run along and play some video games like a good ignorant American.
