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.

Don't know much about this whole story but I just find it funny that these YouTubers have come to peddling lunchables to their fanbases.

[–] Voytrekk@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago

Because they know they will eat up the garbage. They can save on marketing by advertising it in their own channels with a ton of reach.

[–] lowleekun@ani.social 9 points 1 year ago

They just try to squeeze every penny out of their fanbase. Which consists mostly of children. Thinking back on how i was longing for expensive advertised garbage as a child, i guess this is a "smart", but unethical product.

I can't imagine myself putting anything in my mouth endorsed by Logan Paul.

I mean i would guess your age is over 12 so you might not be the target audience. Now imagine having a kid pestering you about this shit every time you go shopping. I would start hiring a baby sitter for my weekly grocery shopping. What a luck that i do not have children.

Now imagine having a kid pestering you about this shit every time you go shopping.

As a parent, I can imagine this. I can also imagine saying no.

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, that is sort of what the parent part is about.

mr beast has the most arming smile of all time

[–] Cuttlefish1111@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As in his smile induced the need to arm oneself ? As in with guns/weapons ?

[–] vithigar@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 year ago

As in the opposite of a "disarming smile", which is a common expression.

[–] Cuttlefish1111@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago

Gross food from gross people

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Jesus Christ I hate all of these evil bastards.

[–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

The sad thing is it would take almost nothing to surpass lunchables in taste quality or texture. They're put together out of literally the worst versions of processed meat and cheese.

[–] Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

Sounds like it's time for a class action lawsuit. 🥰
