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.

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.

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.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
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.
I don't understand the logic of why corruption makes someone their more ideal candidate. Is America just full of idiots? Whats the psychology behind that
Because following the rules means that people feel like they don't control their own lives, and then seeing someone so flippantly ignore basic obligations like regular human decency is cathartic.
I have a data point from two of my relatives who both agree they want to see the ship go down. At least one votes in bad faith for whomever they think will cause more harm to the country they feel did not hold up its part of the social contract. Toddlers lashing out much like the orange one.
You stupid fucking monkey brain, you are on that ship! Your overweight, diabetic ass will not be surviving the looter wars.
It is full of idiots that have been conditioned over 30 years to get their news from Fawx and only Fawx and that news source picked up on Newt Gingrich's playbook: demonizing the otherside and drive a wedge into communities so they don't notice the billionaires picking our pockets and stealing our country.
They also have their local paster who is not only preying on their kids to bang them but is also steering them right into facism
Cults. Look at any cult. The police, military, religions, patriotism, Branch Davidion, etc. All cults, all full of people who shouldn't be part of it because it's against their best interests.
