'United States and the Americas' board guidelines
When posting in the news and politics boards please bear the following in mind:
- Do not post (or link to sites containing) graphic or violent images or videos
- Do not post hate speech, racist or racially motivated material, links, articles or views.
- Do not post material that is transphobic or that encourages/invites transphobic views.
- Avoid copying and pasting entire articles - only quote a snippet and then link to the rest.
Please be aware that the news and current affairs boards are provided as a casual platform for the discussion of mainstream news stories. Racially inflammatory topics, as well as politically inflammatory topics designed to stoke hate or a divisive left vs right "civil war" mentality, are liable to be closed without warning.
As always we ask that members please avoid inflammatory political rhetoric and personal attacks.
