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.

Are you confusing Biden with Harris?
Cause she wasn't in a position to do that.
She was his vice president. I expect a vice president to do her job of critisizing rhe president when he is wrong. She can't say that there is an occupation and she never advocated to impose real pressure on Israel
That's cool that you don't understand how the executive branch works.
And yes, she did. Multiple times. You just saw what you wanted to see.
Y'all are sad. You really are.
Instead of calling for continuing boycotting you prefer to keep complaning and make yourself believe that one of the two american party cults was going to change decade of unconditional supports for israel.
Instead of starting a grassroots campaign to create a third viable option, y'all prefer to do nothing, complain about everything, and blame everyone else for your problems.
You people aren't serious. If you were, we would have seen a third party campaign start the day after the election.
We aren't going to, some dumbass is going to show up election season, give you all the talking points you want to hear (when Dems say something it's meaningless, but when a green party grifter says things you like it's truth), and lose. Again.
Because you aren't serious. You aren't even out protesting to stop the genocide anymore. You are content to sit at home, complain online, and feel like you're not part of the system.
That ain't what's going on, child. You live in the belly of the evil empire. You are literally supporting the deaths of thousands with every dollar you spend that goes into this economy. And you will continue to do nothing about it because it's too much work to form a resistance.
I heard this shit over twenty years ago in college. Still waiting for ANY of you to start this revolution
I won't hold my breath cause at the end of the day, you're just like Maga using the Bible to point your fingers at other people. As long as you have something to make up for your mediocrity and allows you to point your fingers at other people, you're gonna continue to live in your comfort zone.
None of you impress me or anyone else who's actually put boots to the ground for things that matter.
Your comment is so full of projections that is so funny. I've been advocating for a third options for many elections. Unfortunatly americans are stuck in their two cults. I rarely seen republican shaming third party voters and claim people who didn't vote would definitly vote for their cult it almost always democrats.
People are still protesting it's just hypocrites like you who stopped. I said that we should boycott products going to the genocide yet you claim that i am supporting israel with money.
Crazy how no matter how much anti genocide people trash republicans you fools still accuse people of being maga for simply calling out democrats hypocrisy towards palestinians, giving billions of dollars to israel just like republicans and infinite diplomatic protection.
