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
This is why I cannot consider the so-called leftists who oppose taking action against a fascist like Putin to be actual leftists. Putin is a hard right dictator who violates every principle of human rights at every turn.
Tankies are authoritarians, the left/right angle doesn’t matter there.
Inb4 "read On Authority, a book I haven't read, and if I read it I'd realize it was not pro-authoritarianism but actually anti-pacifism"
Yeah, no.
As an anarchist, it’s just authoritarianism.
Fuck your hierarchies and top-down systems of oppression. Fuck supporting genocidal dictators.
Go read the conquest of bread and liberate yourself.
If you do not understand that there is a need for some authorities, you are both fucking stupid and a terrible anarchist.
Do better. Anarchy is about identifying what authority must exist and in what form it would best exist. If your answer is, "all authority is bad." Then you have failed. Try again.
“YoUr NoT aN aNaRcHiSt unless you want to be stepped on by a cop.
Haha, very funny now fuck off kid.
You are fundamentally too stupid to be an anarchist. You have to strawman what I said to even respond. You are truly pathetic.
How about you demonstrate some of that anarchist wisdom and tell me how you'd arrest a murderer that doesn't want to be arrested. Someone, including random other citizens at the time of need, needs the authority to forcibly stop them, you fucking idiot. Authority still needs to exist with or without cops.
Again, you fucking idiot. Defending the necessity of authority shouldn't implicitly defend police unless you have a child's understanding of anarchist theory.
Just fuck off kid.
No one cares about your internet temper tantrum.
Your inability to logically engage is pathetic. You cannot even defend yourself. You're a joke. Do better.
Okay kiddo.
You love proving me correct. Keep going.
'Leftists' like N Korea, China, and Russia supports make me ashamed to be a leftist. This is what happens when all your leaders die 40 years ago, the movement gets silly.
Don't be ashamed to be a lefty. Shame THEM for dare calling themselves leftists while espousing polite words for autocrats and dictators. They are pathetic and a detriment to progress and they need to know it.
And get banned for questioning orthodox bullshit
Idk the leaderless portions can be silly but we feed people to feed people, we fix up bikes to fix up bikes, we send prisoners books and propaganda to help prisoners. We may not be perfect, and our terminally online portions are terminally online, but we’re out there helping the proletariat.
That’s like a republican saying “we donated to a charity” while pushing for a bill that would restrict black peoples right to vote.
You can’t claim to be helping us while in the same breath actively working for our long term oppression.
What kind of action are you referring too? What more can we do?
They went so far authoritarian left, they ended up authoritarian right.
