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.

In my small town they just so happen to be at the same intersection as all the Flock cameras. 🤔🤔🤔

[–] entropiclyclaude@lemmy.wtf 34 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Home Depot right after they said they weren’t using surveillance to track people or immigrants in their parking lots.

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 13 points 1 day ago

People have been going around and removing/destroying them around where Im at. Its funny, its causing a minor monetary issue for the city since they partner with them.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Did they really say that? There's 2 in front of my home depot as well

Oh wait you're banned

[–] Insekticus@aussie.zone 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Destroy the cameras on your march. Two birds. One stone.

Perfect opportunity for someone to deploy some spray paint.

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Painter's extension pole and a small 3-inch roller and a quart of black paint, will do the trick if the cameras are up high.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Paint the solar panel. Then the camera will die a day later and they are non the wiser. Probably takes them a while to figure out the solar panel is painted if you paint them in the same color as the panel.

[–] kn33@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago

Spray paint on a stick will probably give better coverage.

[–] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 day ago

Be brave. Go anyway. Talk to the organizers. Let them know that the cameras might scare people away. Offer some valid, reasonable alternatives.

Lots of people will probably be filming and streaming on their phones anyway, so you're going to be filmed and recorded and posted publicly in all likelihood. Not that it's the same thing as the flock cams, but

Should be targeting the GOP, not Trump.

[–] Mog_fanatic@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean yes but at this point Trumpism is basically it's own party. I mean in the midterms the single biggest issue among gop candidates was how much of a Trump supporter the candidate was. Plenty of people lost solely because the public didn't believe they would follow Trump off a cliff. It's bonkers.

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 6 points 23 hours ago

It’s important that voters recognize how big of a problem the Republican Party is. It can’t be shrugged off by the next republican candidate as a Trump problem.

[–] metalsd@eviltoast.org 24 points 1 day ago (27 children)

Hope people really take over the streets everywhere. What this clown has done to the country is irreparable damage in the short to medium term. The world will keep turning but the US won't be leading it any longer. For all the fear mongering China may as well take the lead from now on. At least those authoritarians bordering dictators have improved China unlike our corporate overlords on this side of the Pacific.

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 9 points 1 day ago

I'm personally expecting the largest turnout yet. Around me several small towns are hosting a protest march this time around so even more people who can't travel far can get in on it.

The Independent: "...from New York to California..."

Boston: "Am I a joke to you?"

[–] aquovie@lemmy.cafe 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Boston is going to be insane. The last one filled every bit of standing room across downtown. Most people weren't in earshot of the speakers because you couldn't get close enough.

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

huh, i remember the last one cause ICE was ripping people out of Brighton suburbs that same day

was kinda funny seeing the peaceful protest go on while the blackshirts were operating a couple blocks away unfazed

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm ready. Here is the front of my house.

[–] nomy@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's clearly the back of a house and you need a new roof.

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

I use this house as a workshop. It originally had a front porch but I closed it off. The house next door used to be identical. The rancher that had this property built them for his twin daughters. That one got an improved brick foundation, mine didn't.
