Rules:

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
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.

You claimed an opinion was a fact and that I was factually wrong for having a different opinion than you. It's not "splitting hairs" to point out you have no clue what you're talking about.
If you recognize that you used the wrong word, say "I apologize, you're right, I used the wrong term" and then simply rephrase your argument. Stop trying to make it my fault you said something absolutely ridiculous and I called it out
I went back and checked what I wrote in my argument. Now your argument is pretending there is an incorrect statement in my argument.
These policies are always racist. Your argument misrepresenting my argument will not change this.
No, what I claimed is a fact. What your argument claims is false. False claims are not opinions.
Ad hominem attacks against me aren't compelling.
No, not pretending. You are confusing fact with opinion. That's actually a fact.
And accusing me of "splitting hairs" instead of addressing my actual argument is also an ad hominem. You're basically undercutting your own position.
Your argument is definitely the one pretending and the one confusing incorrect facts as an opinion.
Your argument attempted to split hairs.
Your argument attempted to split hairs unsuccessfully. My argument's statement was correct.
Your argument does this to itself.
