World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.

Jesus Christ, you racist bastard.
You're spouting bullshit, you got bullshit. Next time come up with actual replies that aren't accusing others of unfounded things.
ah yes, the lebensraum bullshit.
you know why people point out that the modern Israeli state has ironically taken on fascist characteristics? because of people like you, literally on here trying for a speedrun Umberto's common features of fascism
And you know why Israel ignores people like you? You eat up all the misinformation produced by countries that refuse to acknowledge its existence, or outright want it wiped off the map. Then when presented with actual facts that were conveniently left off by your sources, you close your eyes and yell fascist like you've been told. Yes, Israelis aren't perfect either, but the people sitting in their comfy homes watching what's going on there like entertainment and do nothing but yell at how you should sit down and take it, how the thousand cheap rockets are okay, because they only occasionally kill your neighbors. Yeah, that's why Israel doesn't listen to the world anymore.
ah yes, the argument of Israel is both weak and strong, it is perpetually threatened by the entire world around it, but it also is the only safe place for Jewish people
we got a bit of the good old disagreement is treason
maybe some Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy
oh, and let's not forget Selective populism, you got that going as well
you see Israel could try the whole not being an expansionist ethno-theocracy with a penchant for wanting to commit genocide on Palestinians who made the mistake of existing on the land divinely gifted to god's chosen people, attacking its neighbors, etc...
but hey, after all, one Jewish child is worth an entire village, and you don't bat an eye
Lots of techniques to try and demonize Israel being used here. Of course no sources provided and they're all basically opinions started from a negative bias against Israel and enforced with every little tidbit of info they can get.
