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.

This means absolutely nothing coming from FIFA.

FIFA is literally one of the most corrupt non-government entities on this entire planet.

This is just FIFA making shit up to stroke the ego of a malignant narcissist.

You know very well Trump don’t care about that

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 months ago

It would be supremely funny if they didn't give it to him

[–] hypeerror@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 months ago

It would be fucking hilarious if they gave it to Obama or Biden.

[–] orclev@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

They should call it the FIFA corruption prize, it would be a far more accurate name and actually match what FIFA is all about.

We're living in a horrible comedy

I bet the brown nose on South Park becomes contagious.

Just as soon as the checks clear

FIFA gives out a peace prize?

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They do, now. Literally, this is the first one. I’m sure they did it to kiss Trump’s ass.

It’s pathetic.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I hope a bunch of other companies come out and start doing peace prizes for trump too. Flood the market

[–] LordMayor@piefed.social 3 points 3 months ago

Or, give them to people Trump envies. And make a bigger deal of it. Billboards in DC and Times Square, streaming ceremonies with fireworks and big-name bands and actors.

Make a mockery of it.

Cards Against Humanity could have one. The Daily Show. Jimmy Kimmel. They could all give one to each other.

Flood the news cycle but with peace prizes for other people around the same time as FIFA’s.

With a name like that he better watch out around Trump.
