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.

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.

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.

What a bullshit country. Absolutely embarrassing.

Their plan is working. We're too busy talking about basic rights while they fuck us over on shit like climate change and education.

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but I'm not going to let them lynch, deport or force birth on any of my homies. If they want to burn the planet down they're in the same shit we are, but they aren't being effected by the changes to basic rights that they're proposing.

If they want to burn the planet down they're in the same shit we are.

They have considerably more wealth. If/when food and water get scarce they'll have a considerable advantage, if the current system continues as it is.

If/when food and water get scarce their money won't mean shit, and the people with nothing left to lose will start looking at the people with a whole to lose.

The cost of living is already going up and people are already dying unnecessarily, the rich aren't nearly as affected by it.

Stop talking about the "apocalypse" as if they have no way to prepare for it.

Hell, they are attacking from all sides. Fucked by bills, groceries, income, taxes, every-fucking-thing. I struggle to grasp if there is a side that isn't being attacked.

If there is, don't mention it out loud, or it will be next.

Divide and conquer. The only ones not under attack are the rich who instigate all of this.

We need to find them and introduce head removing machinery in their immediate vicinity. But everyone's like nooo, violence is not the answer, think of the property owners who have to pay for their interior redecorating.

Bruh, we are busy discussing our fucking genital identities and who to gets to fuck whom.

I wish it was about climate and education, but literally both sides think they're immune to propaganda and are on the right side of history.
