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.

Integrity, conviction. He is a breath of much needed fresh air. Mr. Mamdani continues to show us what a leader, who actually cares, looks like. I hope he can inspire more to stand up and say that enough is enough; ICE has to go.

This is such an easy message to get behind. There are millions of people out there that support abolishing ICE right now. The democrats need a total united front with a clear message: ICE must be dismantled, and they will stoop to whatever level is necessary to get the job done. They need to crowdsource identifying agents who committed the heinous acts and bring them to justice, or at the very least, into the light. Every single one involved is part of the conspiracy, and bears the responsibility for all of their sadistic brothers’ crimes.

This must happen, now. Every single democrat has to get in line for this to have a chance of working. There has got to be a way to interrupt the states crimes against the people of our nation.

Are they? I see quite a few far-right movements gaining traction around the world. That combined with the governments of other countries being reluctant to take decisive action against the US is not an encouraging sign.

As of yesterday, I think the decisive action has begun. Financially and militarily should the US attempt to invade Greenland.

I very much hope so! Fascism must be aggressively opposed wherever it pops up!

But really, the US should be sanctioned and ostracized whether it invades or not.

Does the US keep the laws immigrations & customs technically enforce, especially as they had during previous administrations before Trump warped them into his state terrorist brigade?

Keeping the laws while abolishing their enforcers smacks of feel-good idiocy. The police are still horrible. Why not abolish them & keep the laws: we can depend on humanity to deal with all legal & criminal matters there, too, right?
