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.

Do you think mid 1930s germans had fuck all to do with the Third Reich?
Imagine reading your comment from the perspective of a Venezuelan. It's all just handwaving, casting blame, and evasion. It's pure American exceptionalism, and it's pure liberalism. "Poor widdle baby Americans deserve none of this blame :(".
I encourage you to read about how fascism is actually mitigated. It's not boycotts; it's bullets, world wars, and sacrifice.
I’ve read a lot about fascism and I agree with you about your last point.
However the rest of your read on the situation tells me how little you actually understand any of what’s happened/happening inside the U.S.
Edit: And there were people fighting the Nazis. You know what the Nazis did? They killed them all and seized power through “legitimate” elections. Jesus. At least we still have robust opposition for the moment that is the overwhelming majority but because voting in our country is so fucked up it doesn't matter. Also you’re a dick.
Better get busy forming the resistance then. To die at the hands of fascists instead of joining them is the greatest honor history could present you with. Instead you're getting fat and writing angry comments on the internet.
Jesus. Yes. I am Che’ leader of the new American revolution hear me ye impoverished and oppressed and flock to my ranks so that we can take back our country.
You really know nothing about the U.S. and what has happened since 9/11.
Lol, yeah buddy, I'm fucking removed and that's why I want you to throw off your chains. America is so special and unique, lol.
So come join me hero!
You'll die fighting on the side of empire, I'm sure. Good luck, lol.
If you really think that after this entire conversation then fuck you. I’d rather have my brains blown out in a ditch.
Seriously you understand shit about the U.S. and what it’s like here.
Kk, hurry up and start fighting back, we've been waiting.
Just waiting for you to arrive comrade.
