World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

First of all, fuck you, figure it out. Second of all, if that were the case, that means you are literally sentencing people to life imprisonment without chance of parole with absolutely no due process at all. That goes even beyond what the (unconstitutional) Alien Enemies Act allows. Far beyond. For the love of God, make this shit stop.
I can't wait until Trump pisses off the world enough that they fight back and he is eventually tried for his crimes against humanity. I can't wait to shit on your grave you evil fuck.
Good fucking luck, look at netenyahu. Committed a whole ass genocide and "the world" did nothing. Nobody will step in for us
The difference is Isreal is mostly only a danger to Gaza or starting a war with Iran. Trump is threatening other sovereign states with invasion and annexation, and destabilizing the economies of global powers. It's not a moral/humanitarian concern which tends to get mixed responses from global powers. It''s a self-interest concern or matter of survival for a lot of powerful countries which tends to get a more direct response.
Same with Kissinger, Bush and Cheney.
This savior fantasy isn't going to come true. If you want it to happen, you're gonna have to do it yourself.
Myself? Welp... grabs mall katana... wish me luck.
Edit: the /s was implied, NSA. Calm down.
Probably dies in office or maybe a few years after. Then the world cheers, his cult members split to other MAGA leftovers but no one can take the place of a cult leader. They run to their Republicans, voting blindly like always.
They will always cheer and remind everyone how Trump was the greatest president ever and we all have PTDS (Post Trump Derangement Syndrome)
Exactly my take, spot on.
Perhaps a glimmer of hope in NW Florida? Voted for the Democrat I knew would lose yesterday (special election to replace Gaetz.) She lost, but we closed the gap and the other Florida election closed it tighter.
Been saying for years, vote even if you know you're candidate will lose. These fuckers can read spreadsheets, and hopefully we can make them see the walls closing in. But yeah, had a wild day yesterday and it was a pain to take time out to vote for a loser. But goddammit, my voice will be heard.
I fully expect people to fall asleep and skip voting like they always do once dems (if) get power again. Either because they're lazy or upset they didn't get everything they want after one election, etc.
I'm jaded but it's like clockwork.
I read that today, that does give that area hope. Cutting Trump district by half is pretty impressive. Or implosion of course.
On the bright side, you don't have to wait to shit on him. His diaper is soiled more than half of the time already. POOTUS.
