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.

The fact that he has even a crumb of clout is quite possibly the single most damning indictment of the concept of meritocracy.
Musk may be more meritocratic than one would imagine. The term meritocracy was coined as a parody of the British class-based education system where children of the rich and powerful always just happens to have the most merit.
Ah, so this is one of those “ironic saying got inverted into being unironic” scenarios like with the Bootstraps or Bad Apples sayings.
