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 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. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


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.


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.


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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

same. i've been downvoting any posts about him because it's always some bullshit. it's never anything good.

[–] [email protected] 135 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

This is him getting loudly and publicly booed, which I personally consider good.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (3 children)

The sad part is, I think that’s what he wants. He seems to be a believer in the whole any attention is good attention.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

What he wants is immaterial. This isn't a good sign for him and the BS contrarian "bad things said about or happening to are actually good for instert-right-winger-here" is delusional coping

I saw someone posit that he might have a humiliation fetish. It's the only explanation I've seen that seems rational.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

He's got a sick addiction to playing the heel it seems, except people sort of like heels but musk has get off the planet go away heat.

I agree that I like him getting booed, but my preference with narcissists is to completely ignore them. They like attention, good or bad, but cannot stand being irrelevant. Since I can't stand narcissists, I make them irrelevant to my life.
