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.
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
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.

MODERATORS
What really needs to be addressed is the false accusations of anti semitism leveled against anyone who criticizes Israel.
And the false accusations of genocide supporter leveled against anyone voting for Biden.
You're voting for someone funding and protecting a genocidal apartheid regime. And it's not some place nobody knows about, it's front page news.
What do you want us to call you?
“Responsible” would work for me. Because that’s what it takes to do the right thing for others, even when you have to plug your nose while doing it.
“An adult” also works if it’s easier for you to spell.
Because that’s also what it takes to have the responsibility to know that the best thing to do isn’t always going to be easiest thing to do-
Or even what you want to do.
Okay you're an adult about to make yourself responsible for supporting a genocide. But I'm not sure shooting and starving civilians equals, "the best thing for others."
I can’t change your inaccurate and ill informed opinions. But I CAN vote to ensure you right to have them remains intact.
