-
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.
-
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 crazy to me that we are talking about a counter-offensive. Last year we weren't even talking about a defense at all. Way too go, Ukrainians. Give 'em hell and send back these bastards at home once and for all.
Slava ukraini 🇺🇦
Ukraine now has more tanks than Russia (in Ukraine). And they are better too. I hope that some time in future the same can be said about artilery and aviation.
Do you have a source on that? All I saw was a Tweet which took combat-ready tanks on invasion day and seemingly ignored the many tanks which could've been combat-readied in the last year.

Great, thanks a lot.
Tankie fuck
Lmao he already got banned
This you? https://lemmy.world/comment/955651 Trolling racist tankie fuck. Quel surprise.
Russia does the same thing so if I have to pick a side, I will pick the side of the victim and not the bully. All I want is these murderers out of the country and then they can fix whatever social problem they have later. Stop the fucking war first
War stops when ukraine becomes russia. Usa will keep funding it for awhile though.
What's funny is Russia will never take Ukraine. They lost that war the second Ukrainians decided to fight back. The US can withstand this for centuries. Russia is already struggling for ammunition, political power, modern equipement and manpower. That's a fact nobody can deny.
Even if by some miracle, Ukrainians decided to surrender, Russia would STILL have to let go of Ukraine. The sanctions won't magically go away just because Putin got what it wanted, no no no. Not a single fucking Russian will have a retirement until every dead ukrainians soldier's family is compensated, the country is rebuilt and Crimea given back to Ukrainians.
You may not like it, you may cry about it all you want, the truth is that Russia lost. Get over it and tell Putin to end this right now. Until then, sorry but Russians will keep getting massacred by the thousands.
Slava Ukraini.
See? You are the perfect example why kids shouldn't be on the internet. Go back to mommy, this is a grown up place.
