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.

MODERATORS
And yet they constantly whine about being defederated and demand to know what they've done, because clearly they've never done anything wrong ever.
The answer to the question is simple, honestly. It's because they're shitty people.
They're intentionally shitty people. None of them have real political views because they are all still in middle or high school and don't have to pay bills and don't have real jobs. They're entire purpose is to troll. They just get on here and look at what anyone is talking about and take the opposing stance to be pricks. Those people would defend any given serial killer or fascist war monger if it meant someone got upset.
No no, it's not "trolling," they call it alternative debating!
A sad bunch, the lot of them.
Sounds like they're your run of the mill contrarian cunts
They're probably just Russia disinformation bot farms for all we know. If they are real people, that's extremely disappointing to me.
Be disappointed, because many of them are real people.
There are plenty of real human fans of socialism and communism sadly.
Don't lump socialism in with what those people are doing.
fuck socialism: social democracy ftw
Why not? Same totalitarian crack heads.
Yeah, Bernie Sanders is such a totalitarian.
If you think that terrible people can't be adults with jobs I suggest you go downtown and eavesdrop on people wearing suits.
People can have “real political views” that are different from yours, y’know.
I think they’re crazy as well, but thinking they’re all just teenagers who don’t know any better is naive. Especially if you look at the US, you should know it’s full of adults with really horrible political views.
The people you're referring to are xenophobic and use the term "political" to mask their hatred. They wouldn't know politics if it bit em in the ass (which it's actively doing with every donation to the orange turd's fund)
You people just can't stop making shit up. Im really mad at reddit for forcing you onto the fediverse
Are you aware that Lemmy is written by people like that? I haven't checked, but I don't think that they're all teenagers.
I just can’t wait for the damn emoji bug to get fixed. So tired of the same crappy images being posted by them on every comment thread filling up the screen and making browsing the already crappy tankie thread even worse. So glad LW defederated from them.
But then how will you appreciate the 1000 different variants on a clown face labelled "Liberals" ?? 😱
Is this something that only happens on the desktop version or what? I'm on Jerboa and people keep mentioning it but I've never seen it.
You're not missing out
Your instance is defederated from them, so you wouldn't see those comments.
You're the one whining
