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 biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
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. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
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, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. 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 or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
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.

Ehh, good. The more Americans are bailed out, the less they suffer the consequences of their actions.
May the complacency of the left and the idiocy of the right reap their fullest rewards.
I have to assume you're using "left" in that peculiar American sense in which it means "center right". The actual left are not complacent, but they're unrepresented.
when i start talking politics with people, i regularly have to preface the conversation with "i am an extreme outlier that is very far left" because i get very weird looks for saying things like, "all people should be able to eat."
its a weird state of being trying to defend something kind.
Preaching kindness is a dangerous business. Be careful out there.
Yes, he's referring to neo-liberals.
Neo-liberals always align with conservatives when their wealth is threatened.
The actual left is very much also complacent. Mango man's goons just robbed an innocent family (of citizens, though I shouldn't need to specify that) blind and where's the action? Where's the outrage? Where are the goddamn strikes?
I think that's lack of organization, given how difficult companies have made it for workers to unionize, rather than lack of will. Also lack of numbers, given how many workers have become Trumpists or consider unions to be evil communism.
Yeah so the actual left should be doing something about that right the fuck now. Anything else is complacency.
i cast itchy lower back upon you
Agreed. I welcome all the suffering that is about to befall consumerists.
They only have themselves to blame, and their incessant greed.
