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.

Death, Death to the IDF!
EDIT: To better express my point - I'm East European who with boiling blood hate levels against Russia. I have never said "Death to russians". I do say "Support Ukraine". See the difference? Honestly, would not surprise me if half of lemmy does not.
Your extremism approach to the problem aside - note that IDF is mandatory to everyone who reaches 18 with some exceptions, which means the same people who report Israeli atrocities to the media and never wanted to be part of this, is now in your call for death.
Since IDF is mandatory to nearly every Israeli citizen, that also means you're essentially calling for genocide while saying genocide is bad. Do you feel morally conflicted, or are you like the people you hate?
EDIT2: Ehh lemmy.. allahu akbar, death to america and give me upvotes, is this how we talk now?
I take it to mean "disband" the IDF
if the extreme right can be loose with the meaning of words, so can we
Why are you defending baby killers
You can go to prison for the duration of the service instead of participating in genocide. Anyone who doesn’t do that is actively choosing to commit genocide.
He said death to the idf not death to israelis. So your example is trash. I am sure you are ok with russians soldiers dying in ukraine
Of course. I'm also ok with Israelis dying in Palestine. You guys are seriously missing my point.
You are the one missing the point. The only place where idf dies is in palestine
I'm seriously talking with bunch of hateful fanatics here, aren't I? Some of your comments borderline sounds like religious chants and I'm noticing the same kind of conversational intelligence when I'm talking with my animal parrot.
Again, you completely missed my point and I have no clue what you even meant by that bizzare text. So IDF can't die when attacking Iran or Syria?
In wars soldiers dies . The invaded has the right to self defense so yeah in Iran and Syria they can die. Are you telling me international law makers was fanatics when they gave right to armed resistance to the occupied?
Dude, you were the one who said that the only place where IDF dies is Palestine, not me. That sentence is very bizzare, as if IDF can't die elsewhere
Wtf is this place? Are you people even human?
EDIT: Holy shit, I might actually be onto something. Not the guy above (simply poor english), but after going thru some profiles, there is a clear pattern of continuously repeating comments in different forms constantly being posted by the same profiles. I also noticed that every single comment on my profile got hit with downvotes, even going back months on comments that were highly upvoted (humor) just recently. The bot activity is real
The war in syria ended. Hizbollah isn't retaliating right now for israel not respecting the cease fire. Do yeah the only place where idf can die is in palestine where internalional law give them the right to fight back.
You the guy who spread israeli lies and keep defending their war crimes and never condemn any killing of palestinians
You are the fanatic not us
So... You're saying no one died inside the Israel from Iran's rockets? Are you saying no one died from years of rocket launches inside Israel from Palestine? No servicemen died during Oct 7 attacks? Wtf are you saying?
Also, Israel is still at war with Syria, officially there has not been peace decleration, but there's progress

Do you truly, honestly believe that people shooting starving kids in bread lines are morally conflicted about the genocide they are committing? Nobody is forcing them to shoot at bread lines. They choose to do it.
