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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. 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.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.

7. No duplicate posts.


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.

Which tells you why it's so important to keep accurate notes of who's a nazi bitch and who's not.

This time around, we can keep lists too.

How long before "it's a job" no longer covers your ass? We keep accepting this stance.

The Nuremberg trials established that "I was just following orders" is not a defense for crimes against humanity.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago

Funny how we still allow it today. Nuremberg trials just held those in WWII responsible. Look around at the world, it is filled with people that " just follow orders."

For the record, I have never accepted this stance and have always stood against the excuse.

Explanation is not justification.

How many people do you know work for a company like Amazon, Wal-Mart, Meta, police officers, military personal, etc....?

Shit swamp prison is just the most extreme version of it.

Obscuring your DOT number is illegal. I’m sure the police will definitely enforce that rule in this instance…

Oh man, that'll be the one thing that makes the whole operation unravel! The cops'll get him! Checkmate, gators!
