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. 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.

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.

This dude owns way more than just a few Panera bread and he was literally just trying to follow the law and even so he decided to go ahead and pay them anyways even though according to the lawyers, he probably could have gotten away with it but you’re right bOtH SiDeS ArE tHE sAmE
Random Internet Commenter Actually Reads the Response Challenge: Impossible.
If all you really took from it is "Both sides are the same" and not that "criminality actually has grades, and treating small crimes like they don't matter because big crimes exist is a fallacy" then you're an idiot.
Random Internet commenter so desperate to hate Democrats he has to go after donors challenge: Super Possible.
Shucky darn, how awful it is of me to critique the people I vote for.
I forgot, we're all supposed to be cult members who never question authority... Wait a minute that sounds all too familiar...
Maybe we shouldn't be angling to be just like the MAGA idiots in justifying our sides' criminality.
But if we criticize their criminality and hypocrisy, then they'll lose.
They certainly won't lose because of said criminality and hypocrisy, no. It's because we couldn't shut the fuck up and gawk at the other side
End the argument, or I will.
Wait, you really think he was just going to do it if there wasn't a big corruption uproar?
End the argument, or I will.
