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.

MODERATORS
They know midterms are coming and they need to get to the full dictator plan before then. Sure, they could just steal the vote like they probably did in 2024, but it appears they are going all the way. When that happens, all of this pretending that the courts can stop him, that the media matters anymore, that he is still beholden to some tiny facet of constitutinality will be 100% gone.
Then we will have to make the decision that was always coming for us. Liberal democracy was never going to save us, no organization or institution would ever challenge capitalism and the status quo to actually make a difference. Because that's what this is. This is the rich getting tired of pretending to be "woke" and pro-democracy and just going mask off for the sake of total wealth accumulation and control. Fascism is simply outward imperialism coming home and affecting the denizens of the "core" so to speak. But of course that outward imperialism doesn't stop, see Venezuela, Columbia, Greenland, Cuba, Panama, Canada, and Mexico.
My theory on this is that Donny is trying to cause as much chaos in Central and South America, eventually most if not all countries will unite against him and eventually there is a possibility of a South American Isis, forming regardless of their intentions. Trump will use that to declare war on everyone south of the border, and he will use that to justify canceling the midterms as well as suspending the election in 2028 to stay in power forever.
Oh, please, what the fuck are you on about? Don’t take pages out of their playbook, it never ends well.
