2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

FYI we're only doing state and local politics in the USA now, so no reason to connect Minnesota with North Carolina

He's running for a US senate seat. This isn't really "just" a state and local politics; even if non-minnesotans don't really get a say.

Personally, I'm glad this asshat is running. we might be able to flip the seat.

When I talk about "Outstate Rednecks", West and the governor-candidate guy that ran against Walz last time are the kinds of people I'm talking about. They make it easy to defeat them.

What's terrifying though, is that of all the potential candidates for MN governor the GOP put up... Jensen was the least insane. (I mean that literally.)

When they're all fascists aligned with the same national fascist party, and saying and doing fascist things, it seems fair to link them.
