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.

If she did something nefarious that the public should know about? Absolutely I do. I'm not why you think I would consider family a special case and I'm sorry you think that I'm that sort of hypocrite because I sure have never indicated I am.
(Also, I don't know why people insist on telling me they normally agree with me when they disagree with me, but it happens all the time.)
Nah dude, I wasn't calling you a hypocrite. I was trying to reframe it so that you could see how whatever her sexuality is would be weaponized against her. It's a bad idea, for people that "have nothing to hide.
Would you want the world to know all the porn you ever looked at? Cause I wouldn't, and from what I can tell, I'm into some pretty tame shit.
I wouldn't run for office. And if you're worried about that sort of thing and don't want people to know about it, maybe you shouldn't either. Because if they learn, you'll be in a world of shit of your own making when you could have avoided it.
So let's push normal people out of public office, and make sure to only have sociopaths who have no shame?
For example, I looked up a spider monkey's vagina because a book about sexuality my partner was reading said they have large external clitoris coming out of their butt.
I can bet you all my wealth that it would be used by Republicans to say I'm into bestiality and a sexual deviant.
Why would someone vote for a sociopath with no shame if they saw that from their browser history?
Hello? Trump?
We haven't seen Trump's browser history, so that's not a good argument to counter what I said, is it?
The result of this is that the only people who can get into office are literally perfect or they're very good at hiding their activities. You leave no room for normal people with varying levels of flaws and foibles and 'weird' interests to participate.
Why would only perfect people have things in their browser history that wouldn't turn people away from voting for them?
