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.

The USA elite should take notice. It'll happen to them too. Trump will ruin them if things get between himself and them.
It’s all ready happening between him and Musk unless that’s all kayfabe
I'm really excited for Zuckerfuck to get Trump'd. Unlike Musk, he'll do it in the most pathetic way... Raging like a little nerd by writing private temper tantrum emails and everyone in his circle comforts him because he pays them 7-figures.
Tbf, musk’s way is also pretty pathetic.
Neither of them has the chops to pull off such an act. They're genuinely horrible idiots.
it's so much better when you take from the rich, rather than taking from the poor like we do in the united states.
They take from the poor in Russia too though. The rich aren’t the ones being fed into the meat grinder in Ukraine.
specifically the poors of ethnic russians, not the white ones from moscow and st petersberg.
the difference is that the united states ONLY takes from the poor, while the russians take from both rich AND poor.
Call me crazy, but people might take ML users stand against fascism more seriously if they did literally anything with it besides just rooting for a different Imperial kleptocracy built on violence.
the only thing that's crazy is westerners refusing to learn from the large body of independent evidence that defines marxists/leninists in a similar manner that climate deniers refuse to learn from the large body of climate science evidence.
Defending a violent, Imperial, kleptoctacy is not Marxism. Lying about how you are being criticized is not a genius plan to avoid the consequences of what you said. Can you communicate in anything other than buzz words or am I talking to a chat bot?
That's not what I said.
I would recommend that you reread the comment before it gets deleted by the liberal mods in this community; but I already know that your ilk doesn't respond well to reality.
Are, are the liberals in the room there with you? Roll your forehead across the keyboard if so. Seriously though. It's laughable looking at the levels of cognitive dissonance shared between people making arguments like yours and the maga crowd.
Did you have a stroke writing this??? Wtf
How do you not get exhausted from being so incredibly wrong all the time?
I'm powered by the fact that liberals like you get it wrong SIGNIFICANTLY more often. Lol
Do other people get it wrong when you don't speak? Is that how it works?
So far everytime you you open your mouth you're wrong, so i I'm curious what 'significantly' means to you.
Objectively and provably untrue.
Takes as in seizes; nevertheless I admire how you twisted to the point to better comport w your world view. Lol
Trust me the US will start taking from wealthy Americans as well soon enough. Once authoritarian groups burn enough Bridges and goodwill. They always have to scapegoat another group.
It's pretty hilarious how so many people think that the boot isn't the problem. The flavor of it is all that matters.
putin is a trillionaire just reclaiming his ill gotten gains from his oligarchs.
