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.

While they're at it, they should expel Hungary.
Orban's fascist regime and its love for Putin and the Trump cult is antithetical to the principles of peace and international cooperation that the EU is supposed to be about.
Throw in Turkey too.
How Turkey became Putin’s ‘pit stop’ for selling camouflaged fuel to the EU
Good thing Turkey isn't part of the EU.
Correct. While there is little to no progress on it, officially I believe they are still trying to be. That said, I was definitely thinking about NATO when I wrote that. Apologies for the mistake.
Agreed.
Great idea! Let's also expel Italy with its fascist government, or France where the nazi woman got 40+% of the votes last time, or the Dutch and their largest faction in their parliament that happens to be far right. Shall I continue?
That's not the same thing at all. In spite of recent elections, all three of those countries are still generally free societies currently occupied by fascist politicians.
They're liberal (in the original sense of the word, not the neoliberal ideology that started in the late 70s/early 80s and is now the main form of capitalism) systems currently captured by illiberal people who may lose power and influence come the next election.
Not so for Orban's Hungary. The entire Hungarian government apparatus is fascist in both form and function. Orban literally CAN'T be replaced since his party controls the mechanisms for doing so, just like his buddy Putin and his party in Russia.
What a hot pile of garbled mess.. I envy your confidence talking about things that you evidently have absolutely no idea about.
I wish you then a happy world war 3.
No u
It will happen if ukraine joins nato. Inform yourselves.
Could ya stop slurping Putin’s boot for a few seconds?
Can you quit from your menticide? There is an article in the nato convention that states objectively what i stated. Hungary is being coherced as we speak to support this illegitimate annexation. Nato stands for north atlantic, ukraine is very far from there. Ukraine had 23 biolabs where they were experimenting on bio vectors to infect especially russian. They were building ethnic bioweapons and killing people of russian descent within ukraine and forcing them out of their land cutting heat and water supplies during winter and this is a crime per se. Ask yourself what boot YOU are slurping. I stand with facts, not with boots.
