Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

MODERATORS
Kamala is better than this low-brow chesticles meme. It's not a real quote and it's not very clever. Unnecessarily sexualizing.
Also extremely sexist. I'm sick and tired of this balls = courage. Most balls wearing people are cowards.
Oh the irony.
Can confirm
Yeah this comes off real weird.
Yeah. I get the intent but it comes off kind of gross.
Okay glad to see this post, nice sanity check because the image is at the top so I assumed it was the most upvoted comment. Thank you.
I don't think that you or I are the target audience.
Then why post it here?
Because you and I aren't the entire audience in this community?
I guess the community has spoken.
The funny thing is that downvotes don't make any difference here. Downvote away.
They show you how many people like or don't like your Facebook meme
If I cared I would take it down.
Moving goal posts so fast, I get the impression the rejection stings a bit.
K
You cared enough to post it in multiple places and defend it lmao
Have I taken it down?
Mods have taken your comments down Lmao.
You also care deeply enough about people banning you that you've whined about it in multiple posts. You should probably spend less time online.
K
Are you going to whine about this in another post later? Can you tag me in it so I can laugh?
K
Sorry that everyone kinda piled on. My complaint wasn't an indictment of your character. I just thought the meme was problematic, possibly unintentionally, and thought I should call it out. Keep memin'!
That's ok, shit happens. It's just Lemmy. It doesn't matter in the grander scheme of things.
Are you going to cry about being moderated some more, if it doesn't matter so much to you?
K
Enjoy your weekend
K
Lol keep replying because you "don't care"
K
Did Facebook migrate here or something?
