The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I appreciate that, you guys are gonna also have a hard time with this spreading virus, I mean more than you already have. But I really think the citizens need to keep the alliance alive and we need to all work together to fight this growing tide of oligarchy-fueled fascism that knows no borders or humanity.

I've seen a LOT of hate directed at American people, even right here in Lemmy, supposedly from Europe and Canada, and I can only assume it's more bots and paid shills trying to drive wedges between us. We need to be really vicious in calling it out and shaming these donuts as hard as possible.

The American example is proving to be a bit of a wakeup call for the more passively progressive people in my country.
