News
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.

Genuinely, WWJD is an interesting thought exercise here.
Without really digging for it, my first guess would be "repent and sin no more." I imagine less turning oneself in to the cops, and more directly asking forgiveness of the ones you wronged. There wouldn't really be a "setting it right" for such an act though.
That's where I can't imagine where things would really go. The feebs would definitely involve themselves anyway, even on the razor slim chance the aggrieved did not.
As much as we very much disagreed (to put it gently) with this hateful brainwashing crusade and are maybe glad to be rid of a prominent source of it, it is still not the way of Christ to be another's executioner.
I'll be honest, I'm struggling here. On one hand Kirk was causing a lot of harm through pursuading the worst sides of people under the guise of "logic." His individual capacity for further harm has been neutralized ("martyr" narrative aside), and that feels like a positive.
But in the end, I don't want to celebrate murder. I wish it never came to this and people had enough sense to have just ignored him entirely. The fact that so many people find this ideology appealing and we've gotten this deep demonstrates a moral decay of our civilization, and in the end he was slain by the monster he and his ilk helped to unleash on us all.
Heh sorry for the rant as a reply. Just thinking out loud I guess.
