Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

OK
Maybe you like giving evil companies money. I don’t. Also why would I care what some random YouTube person thinks? lol.
Good job winning this new argument you just started, the fact that you were the only participant shouldn’t inhibit your celebrations even a little bit. Congratulations!
I’m not arguing. I’m explaining why it’s an odd choice to show YouTube to an adult. I’d rather hear your opinion then some moron on YouTube while putting money in evil inc pockets
Dog you’re going off on this fucken tangent that no one is engaging you in. There was a point to this discussion, and then you decided that you wanted to have a hissy fit about youtube. Maybe you did so because you felt you could no longer defend your original position. Maybe your attention span is just that short.
Either way, you refused to play in the same space as everyone else, and I’m not gonna fucken follow you home so you can yell at me about how much you don’t like youtube.
I’m not throwing a hissy fit. I explained to you why I don’t use YouTube. Now you’re once again trying to insult me for god knows what reason because I asked for you to articulate your point rather than using you tube.
I don’t have to defend my position. I have the money. I like it. I’ll buy one if I want. Not sure why you feel the need to attack me and my position.
I judged your position.
I attacked the rapid shifting of topics as you lost steam, and the continued insistence that this course of action had any purpose other than to save face.
But please, go off, king! You’re killin it out here, only giving money only to preferencial billionaires.
I have no need to save face. I’m happy with my purchase. I can afford it. I have no qualms owning a Tesla product. I find it odd so many people need to tell me I’m unhappy with my purchase. I’m extremely happy. Best car I’ve ever purchased. I I get you want an echo chamber where everyone says boo to the same beat but I have good faith discussions about topics. I’m not a fan of Elon but I’m a fan of the product. If you don’t like Tesla, don’t buy one.
Never told you how to feel babe, I think it’s stupid so I called it stupid. You’re not obligated to agree with me, and I wouldn’t demand that you do.
You’re being real defensive and dodgey when you could just say “fuck off” and move on! My opinion of what you do with your money doesn’t matter, I’m just some snarky fuck on the internet.
I am not the least bit defense or dodgy. I just find the obsession with Elon odd.
