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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

It's an american led coup.
Not even the first in south America but absolutely the most blatant.
Edit: "Negotiated exit" could mean a few things but it probably means they had him and his family and said 'come with us or we go to our alternative orders'
To be clear Maduro is an ass but what the USA has done is internationally intolerable and is the kidnapping of a foreign head of state.
But then so is Trump. Each one is an asscheek, they go together.
So china, russia, North Korea and Iran should attack USA to remove your current government? And then they should insert someone in their favor instead? Is this how the world should be controlled? Kill everyone we don't like for the sake of it, and then see if the lottery turns in our favor each time we make a regime change. So far the changes has been a success in Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. Right?
I don't know, I don't see Maduro kidnapping foreign leaders he doesn't like. If Maduro is an ass cheek Trump is the post sodomy blood cum fart exploding on the world's face.
Drug lord vs pedophile hard to say if I want either to live or be happy.
Can we take neither and have it not fuck over the people tho?
Can you show me the evidence of Maduro being a druglord? You know this is all bullshit made up by Trump and the murderers who want their oil.
He's still a ruthless dictator that refused the peaceful transfer of power in defiance of rule of law. Funny that this applies to both Maduro and Trump. This in no way makes excuses for the US's actions here, but let's not pretend Maduro was a good guy.
According to who? The CIA who helps conduct the attacks and the opposition led by Machado who also supported Trump's campaign and supports Israeli genocide? Were you alive in the run up to the Iraq war? Look at any war the US had led in the last century. The state creates whatever narrative they want to justify their actions, Trump has stated openly that this is about their oil.
