Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments 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.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Obviously any government action based on "promoting a good image" would violate the First Amendment.
I can agree to a certain point but as this particular scholarship is only handed to two people a year I imagine the requirements are very high and the standard at which one conducts themselves is taken into account. Never the less I do not understand and cannot condone punishing those that do not deserve it.
This girl must have worked hard for such a scholarship and to be denied what she earned for such a bizarre reason just seems petty and small.
