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.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
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.
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.
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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.
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.

Kamala isn’t perfect but she at least gives me hope that we will escape this dystopian fascist nightmare.
Idk about escape, but she can help us delay it's worsening for a bit longer lol.
Give her the house and senant and we stand a good chance.
Demographics will bring about the extinction of the republican traitor filth. Delaying for a few cycles may be all that’s necessary to save the Republic.
It's been remarkably resilient over the decades. The Civil War didn't kill the mentality. Reconstruction didn't kill the mentality. The Great Depression and New Deal didn't kill the mentality. You can't count on it going away on its own.
None of those have faced the test of shifting demographics. The country will be majority minority in 2 decades.
You can't take it for granted that those newly formed majority-minority groups will be further to the left. Just for starters, Democrats took for granted that Latino groups in Florida and Texas would vote for them, and it hasn't always worked out.
