Welcome to the News community!
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 biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
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. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. 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.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
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.
Good. I hope we tank further. This is the only thing that will stop the creep of fascism. Over the rich realize they are losing money, and they are already, they will pull it back.
The problem is it won’t stop fascism. The rich aren’t actually losing much money.
I mean they are because the economy goes down and we stop spending money the rich do actually lose money and if they're paying more to have things made..
But they have billions, and can shift investments. Right now is weird because everyone is uncertain, but companies will adjust and profit, not go under.
Nokia started out as a pulp mill in Finland. Companies will just change, as they have for millennia. The only people who actually suffer are you and I
But you see we have had numerous businesses fail especially in the last 10 to 20 years that have long histories. They're not immune from failure while some may be able to shift and move many do fail and many people do lose millions and millions of dollars.
Like which ones?
Google is your friend. I'm not naming all the companies that have failed in the past 20 years. But if you want 2, Lehman Brothers and Washington mutual. 100+ year old companies that crashed and burned.
Washington mutual sold their business to chase. The people who owned Washington mutual became even richer. The fact that Washington mutual failed did not impact the people who own it at all. That is what I’m saying.
Yes, we all know how hyperinflation in the Weimar republic ended well.
