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.

“When you lose money for individual consumers — i.e. taxpayers and citizens — people in government get very, very upset. Regulators get very, very upset,” Blankfein said.

Normally… yeah. Under this regime? I genuinely doubt they’d give a single fuck.

[–] hark@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago

Maybe if those individuals are rich. Everyone else has been getting screwed without the government caring for a long while. It's why so many had foreclosed on their home in 2008 while big banks were bailed out and their execs rewarded themselves with big bonuses.

[–] ZephyrXero@lemmy.world 30 points 9 hours ago

No shit. lol

It's going to be a double wammy. AI bubble bursts + printing billions of new dollars to pay for war

A economic crash is when us peasants lose money. An economic boom is when the guillotine chow gains money.

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 10 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

LOL. Everyone knows that, the problem is no one knows when the hammer gonna drop. Could be today, could be three years from now.

Everyone wants to make money while everyone is making money. As in, you cant afford not to be on board.

When the correction comes it might be 5% it might be 50%, but we all gonna be in it together.

[–] Halcyon@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 hours ago

No, we're not all in it together. The poor 90% of the world will pay most of the bill as always, while the rich are quite well-off. And the ultra rich live in their own realms.

I guarantee it won't take three years, nor will it be anywhere near the low end. Odds are it will begin in earnest once the lying thieves are voted out of office, and those trying to clean up the mess will take the fall for what the thieves have done to the economy. So, the "middle of the road" flip-flopping morons who don't understand that - nor care to - will eventually switch back to voting for the lying manipulators who tell them what they want to hear, and "look, see! The others are terrible at keeping the economy going!"

I'm SO fucking sick of people.

Great, buy puts three years out or shut up.

[–] SanctimoniousApe@piefed.social 2 points 2 hours ago

Truth hurts, huh?

You're in luck, they're going to die in droves.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 20 points 10 hours ago

No, Donnie just filled his diaper again

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago

Whether I agree or not, someone like this sharing an opinion is enough to move markets.

[–] aarch0x40@piefed.social 6 points 9 hours ago

Damn, who financial crisesed in here?!?

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I was going to make a Rock comment, then maybe I thought I’d make a Police comment. Then I wondered why people keep smelling things.

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I can feel coming in the air tonight

Man… I’m an idiot - thought it was “I can smell it coming in the air tonight”

[–] GrabtharsHammer@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Lol that's Genesis. The Police was "Canary in a coal mine"

[–] SanctimoniousApe@piefed.social 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Not Genesis - just Phil Collins.

Wouldn't help if you were since it was released in the 80s.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 hour ago

That's the joke dot jpeg

No, reallyIt's the last verse in the song I linked, The Night I Laid You Down by Stephen Lynch. The singers are arguing about a Phil Collins song.

[–] etchinghillside@reddthat.com 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Yikes – I’m double idiot.
