Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
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.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
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
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

This just means you don't stand for anything but your address.
I'm finding I have even less support and sympathy for those in DC than I thought. They need hardship.
Ah, so a couple questions to see if you're just a fucking idiot that thinks idealism can be reality, or if you're even relevant to the conversation.
Most of that user's comments have been removed (with good reason), so I'm guessing they're just a troll (aka an idiot).
Deleted not removed. It's like saying a Reddit account is meaningless because most of the comments were deleted.
Lol, a quick scroll shows they were removed by mods, so nice try
Former J1+H1 counterexample right here.
I shortened the last sentence. The 1st point literally covers that type of scenario.
But that's cool. Taking things out of context on purpose to manufacture a point is literally what the internet does best.
These are people choosing their home over their principles.
Some of us have children who depend on us.
Yes they do, and they see that you stand for nothing.
Politely, wtf is wrong with you? You actually think risking homelessness with kids is the better option?
It depends on who is employing you. You want that as your boss? You want your kids to see that as your boss?
Why are you lying about me? You know nothing about me.
What you saw was this:
Everything else came from your fevered imagination.
FWIW I went off on dude on your behalf lol
Thank you.
They don't know the people you are conversing with. You're creating some strange narrative in your own brain and projecting it against the world.
Do you have a family? Kids? Anyone you are responsible for? Would you be so flippant about making them homeless?
Okay you're one of those people. This conversation is pointless. Have a good day.
