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.

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.

yet another reason to be vegan.
At this point, it would be a massive step up if people would just not send their money to people who cram cows in tiny cages with no room to move. Even if the vast majority of people can't give a shit about the well being of animals, they should at least be able to realise that breeding horrific viruses so they have baby cow juice loaded up with drugs is a terrible idea just for their own selfish sake. How hard is it to change a few little habits? Are people so far gone that they can't change any aspect of their lives?
It's so hard to take anyone seriously when they have such little self-control and moral absence that they can't even take any tiny step if it means giving up anything that they are used to.
It is legitimately impossible for most 1st-worlders.
They all think they're entitled to what they've had their entire lives, even if it hurts others.
I know, you're right. I bounce back and forth between despising and pitying them. I feel like I should pity more, but honestly, I spend more time despising.
