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.

Wow that agressiveness :))
In that article (first time i heard of GOP being hacked I read
" Comey later added that “there was evidence of hacking directed at state-level organizations, state-level campaigns, and the RNC, but old domains of the RNC, meaning old emails they weren’t using. None of that was released.”
Comey said there was no sign “that the Trump campaign or the current RNC was successfully hacked.” "
So yeah "GOP being hacked" big deal. not "GOP emails were sent to WikiLeaks who decided not to publish it" which is indeed raw made up bullshit.
Also, according to
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-37639370
"Ms Brazile took over at the DNC when its former chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz over hacked emails which revealed the party establishment's favouritism towards Mrs Clinton."
I never claimed the DNC undermined Sanders in the primary. That Clinton campaign undermined Sanders, it's very different...
Do you really want we go and search in the Podesta emails to see who is right here?
What else? Assange caused global warming? Cause the US to let their pants down in Afghanistan? Assange has weapons of mass destructions? What else to justify the unjustifiable, all these violations of international and national rights, violations of human rights, mis-use of the US espionnage act against a non-US citizen and precedent that will affect all journalism? Maybe Assange caused UAPs...
Well Mr Bidet, by all means keep washing shit… and ignoring the whole “concluded that the Russian cyber attacks were intended to help elect Donald Trump president.”
But yea poor Bernie. I’m sure Podesta is the real villain here. Straight up the whole substance of your arguement is BS Bernie doesn’t even care as much as you do and neither do voters.
Then there’s this: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/09/14/russians-have-hacked-rnc-too-texas-congressman-says/90380324/
Which he tried to walk back: https://www.cnn.com/2016/09/14/politics/michael-mccaul-rnc-hacked/index.html
The previous links were to clue you in on your ignorance. MR BIDET. There’s plenty more to go around.
“Since most of the GOP material was not released, whereas the emails of Democratic Party groups and officials were made public, the intelligence community has growing confidence that hacking of US entities was meant to steer the US election toward Trump.”
But keep whining about podesta like you have a real point to make. I’ll keep going.

Any “aggression” you feel in your bidet is just a forceful rebuttal of how dogshit your argument is that podesta was a meanie.
(never sayd Podesta was a meanie. i think anyone involved in the DNC or GOP is probably a piece of shit that doesnt deserve my respect, but i think the same of many other political parties in many other countries...)
oh and by any chance, are you from the USofA? that way you have of being right about things by being louder.... quite fascinating :)
You wrote whole paragraphs about the dnc memos and then asked if you have to read the podesta emails to make a point. Now you’re trying to both sides it. This isn’t a matter of louder it’s a matter of you having I real point to make.
What is the horror of the dnc emails that’s really of substance?
Still waiting…
You and I remembered different things about these emails. I asked if we really had to source and quote them to find out who is right and who is wrong.
There is no "horror" in DNC emails. just evidence of crass corruption and cynicism from Clinton's campaign.
So wait, are you saying there is nothing significant in the Podesta emails... while at the same time the would have "made Trump elected"? :)
Some of the substance of the emails summarized here: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/10/us/politics/hillary-clinton-emails-wikileaks.html
But again that's only the bits i personally remember from (reading) the emails.
All I said is:
To other fantasy claims that "WL had the GOP emails too but decided not to published them lol" i replied "haha wait what?!" and was presented with meak links about "GOP got 'hacked' period" with no trace of email being transmitted to whoever.
Now please go on barking about my nickname, changing topic or whatever.
🥱
Ever been to Lithuania? Not a fan of Russia and don’t suffer idiots whining about emails with zero context. It’s a lame argument a dumber name and a detractor to any real political conversation when you whine about Hillary.
you're really funny :)
