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.

I mean... given the US's track record for resisting fascism, this isn't an unreasonable expectation
What country has managed to resist fascism without military intervention from an outside source?
You are expecting Americans to do something that has never been done. The US Civil War doesn't count, because while those people would have eventually turned to fascism, in the moment they were all about slavery and states rights, not corporate rights.
And given your username, you have far more abilities to destroy the US government than the rest of us.
Didn't fascism simmer down in South Korea, Taiwan, South Africa, Spain, and Portugal?
Only after the deaths of the figureheads who brought it about in the first place.
I’m expecting Americans to do the ONE thing they’ve been LOUDLY insisting for a full goddamn century makes them so exceptional.
I’m utterly shocked to discover it was just a bunch of dipshits taking credit for something their ancestors might have done.
This is such an insane and imaginative comment. Are the century old Americans that talk to you in the room with you right now? It's absolutely crazy how you've taken some individual comments or perceived attitudes and created this fantasy land where you now have "owned the dipshits". Let's ignore the assassination attempts, current and planned protests going on through-out the country, people getting arrested for standing up for their fellow citizens, LUIGI!!, the college protests going on for months/years, this is such a selective memory you're touting. This isn't like the UK/Scotland police that just sit there peacefully (5 people were there initially and stopped their immigration enforcement per the article). Yet still we have hundreds and thousands of people still showing up and continuing to fight while you whine and complain online.
Holy shit, your entire engagement in this site is just comments about American "cowards". Why haven't you tried to immigrate and show Americans how it's really done since you're such a mister big boy bad ass? You seem to care enough to removed about it everyday but not do anything about it?
Please, write more. Dying to hear what you have to say.
