United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
American here - how does the EDL rank in severity of their bullshit compared to American racist groups? I've never heard of them before that I can remember.
They're pretty bad mostly they're actual Nazis too. Fortunately they have the combined intellect of a cantaloupe so they don't really pose much of a problem. Mostly they're just loud and irritating.
They're very vocal minority I'm not quite sure why a beer company would really want anything to do with them. The PR fallout doesn't seem like it could remotely be worth it.
