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.

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.
It doesn't matter, he still killed his mother and that is the reason why he's being tried.
The fact that he's a kid and did that makes the case more ironclad in the eyes of most: he's clearly a bad seed so he must be gotten rid of now to protect the lives and rights of everybody else.
A bad seed? Trim the bad ones for the sake of the future?
Would you put the neurodiverse into a gas chamber for being a burden on society, too?
My lord, you need some help.
This is a kid, it's an accident, a tragic one. He's going to need a psychiatrist his entire life. The punishment is he will live with it.
It's honestly hilarious that you're equating random NDs with a child that murdered his own mother and then ordered a VR headset on her Amazon account a day later.
You're missing the point. All I'm saying is that the punishment should fit the crime.
The kid is a kid. Not innocent, but not deserving of the full weight of adult punishment.
Worse yet, could the child be an undiagnosed ND? You and I don't know. What if he is?
