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 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.

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.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.

Sure ought to be easy to prove it's a hate crime. What a horrible, horrible person. What the hell is wrong with people? How can you get yourself to a point where you think it's okay to murder a 3-year-old girl?

Well in all fairness to this racist lady, she was trying to drown the 6yr old brother also, but he got away.

In all seriousness though, you have Trump calling everyone non-white vermun (he says American but his followers know) and how they plan to round them all up Hitler style in November should he win. He even stood behind someone yelling out at his rally that they should start executing "illegals" on the spot. This is only going to become more common place the longer we let dangerous hate language just be spewed by a presidential candidate and his army of puppets, because everything is always "both sides".

Except this is Texas and they don't care about none of your proof 'round those there parts.
