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.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
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.
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.
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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.
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.

Yes, there are many Nazis on Twitter and Musk isn't doing anything about them. That doesn't mean getting rid of this office won't have an effect. Even idiots and assholes can be swayed by the right reframing of information or not even hearing about it if they get rid of a tweet before it goes viral.
I think they should raid the site and find every piece of transphobic shit and put them all in jail. And Musk should be put away for life as he's enabling all of this shit.
We calling for the arrest and execution of people we don't agree with now? Noted. When the Nazis take over, I'm passing your name on.
How does this angry child have a single upvote?!
Maybe you'd change your mind if you were constantly being harassed by people online because of troll farms like this. Not to mention that places like that enable people to stalk and terrorize trans people IRL. Besides, I never called for executions, that's you just putting words in my mouth. And by your own admission, I'm not surprised you'd collaborate with nazis either or that you actually believe that they could take over. Guess that speaks volumes about you.
