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.

Or did you forget you accused me of putting my child in danger because I'm stupid?

I never said that. I would never. Please don't put words into my mouth.

You admit you have no fucking clue what you're talking about,

Again, putting words in my mouth. Please don't. I never said that.

Read your own fucking posts

admit you have no fucking clue

so how about shutting the fuck up?

Dude. Chill out a bit. Your getting angry at things you imagine I said, which I never did. No need to curse. I'm going to leave this conversation now, I feel like I'm feeding a troll. Welcome back to Europe, please know you don't need to be so extremily angry all the time anymore. You're safe now. Have a nice day.

You absolutely did.

I said I brought my daughter to the UK for safety, and your response was:

You clearly didn’t do your research when moving to Europe, and clearly have no clue on how other European countries are.

And then I explained to you why I made my choice and you continued down that road with:

Why didn’t you say you’re a UK citizen? So you’re not a US citizen and you moved back to your country of origin? I can understand that, although I still would have checked other countries first since the current state of the UK isn’t that attractive right now.

So yeah, you absolutely accused me of putting my daughter in danger because I'm stupid.

Just because you didn't literally use those words doesn't mean that's not what you said... and you must really think I'm stupid if you want me to believe otherwise.

So no, I won't chill out and I didn't imagine anything.

I’m going to leave this conversation now

Good. I never wanted you in it to begin with.

Clearly English isn't your best language because you're putting words into my mouth. I said you didn't do research into other European countries as EU countries are not how you portray them to be: extremily anti gay and unwelcome to expats. How are you able to change that into me saying you've put your daughter into danger by moving to the UK? Your response is offensive, demanding me getting you a job. Wtf dude.

So yeah, you absolutely accused me of putting my daughter in danger because I'm stupid.

Right. Because I say the UK isn't too great economically since brexit, you change it to me saying you are putting your daughter in danger. If that's what you think, that's your imagination dude. Not my words.

and you must really think I'm stupid

I didn't.

Just because you didn't literally use those words doesn't mean that's not what you said

It means exactly that I didn't say that. It means you only hear what you want to hear, not what was actually said. Stop putting words into my mouth.

This guy is toxic. Just disengage and stop feeding him. It will just keep going further downhill.

Remember one post ago when you said:

I’m going to leave this conversation now, I feel like I’m feeding a troll

You shouldn't have lied about that.

And you insulted me again in this post with the "clearly English isn't your first language" thing when you know full well I am a US/UK dual national.

I'm sure you'll deny that's an insult too since your game seems to be insult, deny you're insulting, then insult some more.

Looking forward to more lies.
