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.

Then all the people who said we can push Biden to the left were lying and I'm not going to vote for him again.
Have fun shooting yourself in the dick.
Have fun defending people voting for procorporate trash in the 2020 primaries.
I’m not defending anyone. Your grasp on reality seems tenuous.
Does that mean you agree people who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries are selfish pieces of shit?
Because they want a better country (than the alternative)?
There were much better options in the 2020 primaries. There was no good reason to vote for Joe Biden.
Sorry, I reacted like we were talking about those that voted for him in the general
Still, I don't think everyone that voted for him in the primaries is by definition evil and trying to sabotage the Left. Some of them are just plain dumb or uninformed. For example, I read/saw a short interview with an African American whose sole reason to vote Biden was that he played second Fiddle to a black president for eight years and he thought he should be rewarded for it. Goes to show you what we're up against, dunnit
Hey, I can forgive someone who's just not very bright giving a bad reason. I'm not gonna be mad at someone who doesn't know any better.
But the vast majority did so because they felt like Bernie, Warren and whoever else are just "too far to the left" or "the other candidates didn't have as much of a chance in the general". Anyone who provides a reason like that is straight up acknowledging they are intentionally voting against progressives and leftists. And they have the gall to turn around and pretend we're on the same side in the general? No. They can go fuck themselves.
Wow! You must be very small and very sad to have this one single issue let you sell out your country to a dictator.
People have been very vocal about multiple issues with Biden. You just aren't paying attention.
