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. 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.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
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.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

MODERATORS
I don't disagree with you, necessarily. It's an incredibly grey issue and one of the few issues that the left shouldn't be as absolutist about and have a conversation. And beyond that, it's so low on the list of priorities. Even for trans people themselves I can't imagine this is high on the list.
But your Protip makes you look like a tool. Why preemptively try to act like you're some kind of martyr?
"Sort by controversial" is just complaining about being hidden due to downvotes. It also doesn't make sense for multiple reasons. They've already seen your comment, you're upvoted, you're not necessarily going to get downvotes due to a nuanced conversation, Lemmy isn't usually busy enough to be buried in comments, etc.
You can say it's a controversial subject without victimizing yourself.
Sorry you're offended. I hope you get better.
This article isn't a moral panic. Did anyone even look at it? It's talking about four athletes and their experiences, some of them positive.
Agreed 100%. Sports are entertainment. This is a distraction. Get people upset about trans women in sports and they might get less upset about things like healthcare costs. Or at least not upset enough to stop voting for bigots.
