Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

MODERATORS
Probably because chances are they were perpetrated by those in positions of authority.
Also because the schools intervene to try and keep it from escalating to criminal reports, the campus cops are there to protect the school, not the people at the school.
Any diversion to “academic” discipline means they don’t have to report it as part of the crime stat.
Not true. Campuses have to report all sex crimes reported on their ground, so it you could get raped in an off-campus, they would much prefer it.
And if it never gets reported as a crime… it’s not a “sex crime”, now is it?
Campus cops are generally paid for by the university rather than a city or state. While they are (usually,) peace officers in the legal sense; they’re still basically a private police force whose paychecks are signed by the school.
Diverting reports into academic disciplinary complaints is a common way of protecting people the school has an interest in protecting.
The school gets involved and tries everything they can to protect themselves, including pressuring victims to accept internal processes that generally go no where instead of going to a proper court of law.
It’s the same as workplace HR departments. They’re going to protect whoever hurts them the least.
Or because it is a hot mess of young, drunken people of which many do not take responsibilities.
The person snuck into her dorm room and raped her. What are you talking about?! Grow up.
Perhaps first read what I reply to, that would enable you to understand my comment and the context. Then you can even reply with something that actually fits my comment.
Well, let's be fair here. What was she wearing? Seems like maybe she was asking for it, no? Should've worn a burka /s
The incels have arrived, folks 😭😂
She had a vagina! That's practically "begging" for it!
/s
Nobody Expects the Incels!!
They've been here, it's just that the population is outpacing moderation. I wish there was a way to fund moderation efforts for popular subs.
We all read it. With the context, it was a shitty, insensitive and inappropriate thing to say.
I know it's hard to accept that you may have made a mistake, but we've all made mistakes. In this case, you made a mistake. At this point, you can choose to accept that you made a mistake, own up to it and do better next time, or you can not. It's up to you my friend.
Remember to rape responsibly, kids.
