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.

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.
Considering that Trump told them that COVID-19 wouldn't kill them and their family said it would, of course they would trust him since it didn't. Those that died of COVID, of course, didn't answer the poll. Survivorship bias!
If your family is the type that goes for trump, then there's no wonder.
They see first had their family and friends are not the brightest bulbs, they just miss he irony.
The only people who told me Covid would kill me is those in power. Everyone else seemed to think it was just another virus...
We also found it strange that we were told it's a major issue for at risk people (duh, everything is), but then sent certain groups, like the elderly, that were confirmed sick back into their communities of at risk folk...
It was a cluster of nonsense. Yea, we want to be safe. We don't want to get sick even if it is minor, but the cluster of clusters was clusterific.
You what now?
How much horse dewormer did you eat?
Didn't mean to trigger you, I'm sorry.
All your insults and assumptions about me are baseless, I'm not even American. I've just been marveling at you conspiracy theorists' ignorance from afar.
