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.

en masse, but yeah, agreed.
"If I don't see it, it's not there!" 🙈
No, see, you guys are all doing it wrong. Just rotate the thing so line goes down. Don't even need a sharpie this time
I understood what you were getting at. 
Exactly, except the starvation line is currently going up as people lose work and food prices rise. Turn the chart and bam, the line goes down. I maybe shouldn't post while exhausted
Leaving this here for anyone with a short memory https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2020/07/14/trump-says-us-would-have-half-the-number-of-coronavirus-cases-if-it-did-half-the-testing.html
I love how this study is "costly, politicized, and extraneous," but changing the name from Department of Defense to Department of War isn't. And what about those $50k Big Brother posters of him hanging on government buildings. Totally worth it.
Vibes over principles.
there's gonna be a famine. start working on your food security now
redundant, costly, politicized, and extraneous
Pretty good description of this administration, actually
The party of family values
At this point it feels like we're ruled by the family of party values. Is that worse? :(
When there's no food to eat, the people will eat the rich.
Qu'ils mangent de la brioche!
In the US, it's more like BBQing long pig. Eww! Just grossed myself out. 🤢
Food is going to be harder for Americans to come by in the near future. How much harder, hard to say. I don't think it's panic buy time, but it's definitely "start stockpiling dry goods" time.
