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.

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.

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

There are currently 4,000 religions in the world today (ball park figure)
Show them all.
Little Timmy's art work he's proud of?
Sorry. No room because we have to cater to religious assholes who make up the Republican party.
I like the "all or nothing" approach. It negates the "but my religion is extra special and the true one".
All scriptures, equal space for each scripture, same font (not necessarily same size) same colors.
Also need to leave some space for new religions/scriptures. It's only fair.
I love that idea and I think that's the only fair way to do things.
The sucky part, which is sucky already, is that the law says that the schools themselves have to pay for the 10 Commandments posters. Really. And the law gets worse from there.

Well yeah. It takes money away from schools. That's the end game.

I'm vaguely recalling a Jim Carry line from Bruce Almighty, "Smite them oh mighty smiter!"
"Now I'm not much for blaspheming, but that last one made me laugh."
