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.

Dying from the end result of a superstitious, anti-science, anti-intellectual outlook...
Nature is healing?
They're not dying though they're killing their kids.
Cool, they can be used as a cautionary tale. If you want your child to survive infancy don't be like that dumbass over there.
meh..can always have more kids....
“The measles wasn’t that bad. They got over it pretty quickly,” the mother said of her other four surviving children who were treated with castor oil and inhaled steroids and recovered.
Well, ideally we could implement some sort of requirements for procreation.
Unfortunately any such restrictions quickly becomes eugenics. It seems like we could find a little space between some racial purity bullshit and "Dem doctors up in that hospital are killin' lil Cooter Jr with all dem fucking needles, injectin' him full of the 5g microchips and the autism!"
But, if you just dial the resolution back: it's not their kids - their stupid is killing the whole species as well as the biosphere. Ergo, nature is healing..
Idiots don't always give birth to more idiots. Look at Elon Musk's daughter that disowned him.
That said, we do have a lot of dumbass Trump's in the world...
The newborn never had a chance to defy the idiocy of their parents, as many of us have.
Antivaxxers are in the same boat... They are vaccinated, but they are killing their children.
It will never fail to impress me how far dumberikans are willing to go to validate their own willful ignorance. Like, even killing their own kids is a price they are willing to pay to be in the cult of stupidity. Beyond belief.
The newborn didn’t do anything to deserve that.
