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.
-
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.

I don't understand why it's appropriate to make offhanded comments about Islam and blame a whole religion of people for the violent acts of a handful of extremists, but god forbid anyone say something critical about Israel and suddenly their an antisemitic Nazi. Case in point me being called antisemitic for calling "a CEO Jewish" https://sh.itjust.works/comment/4296373
I'm sorry you feel that way, but violence would still keep on happening even if there were no more religions, it's human nature. Religion does more good than harm (brings communities together, passing down of traditions/knowledge, charity, etc..).
If cancer were cured tomorrow people would still eventually die, but I would rather live in a world without cancer than with.
By what metric?
Yeah in mutual hatred for outsiders and minorities and heretics.
It is called paper.
Government does more and does it better.
you bleeding heart liberals are really starting to get more more intolerant and hateful by the day, I shall drink your liberal tears with my holy water, thank you and have a blessed day.
Not able to deal with the argument you made it about me. The last refuge of the theist.
an argument can only be made between two competent parties, and you clearly are a child.
How was group pretend time today? Which one of us spends time each week with other adults talking about their imaginary friend?
Just please don't shoot up a church or mosque, and try to meet and get to know people who have different backgrounds/cultures than you.
Try not to hand over your kid to a priest to get raped and voting for theology, and try finding some evidence for your belief in skydaddy
I'm orthodox, our priests can get married and have wives so their not pedophiles. I'm really worried you might actually shoot up a church now 😅
