Who wouldve thought once the empire that ruled on half of the world would become bootlicker of a pedophile
Fucking lapdog.
"The UK’s position on this is clear. We respect international law and any soveriegn state that recognises international law must set out the legal basis for its decisions and actions. That is for the US to speak to."
Then fucking condem it and do something about it
With how labour has been since starmer has been the leader is anyone even surprised???
So what happened to the UK? Like, in the past two decades, the UK has been one REALLY bad decision after another, and they've been sliding/speed running into a "v for vengeance" type UK.
Are the British okay with any of this?
Both the US and UK are captured by the propaganda system. They've both been twisted into authoritarian surveillance states swerving quickly to the right. A lot of other countries are heading the same way, but these two are leading.
Appeasement
You know, it worked so well for them last time.
The last WW2 veterans died and fascism reared its ugly head immediately after. The cultural memory of what happens when you fail to obliterate the Nazis, before they spread too far, is gone.
Everyone has fallen into the same old trap of it'll never happen here, meanwhile it is objectively fact that MAGA will take Cuba, Greenland and Canada if they are not stopped.
I really fucking wish it wouldn't take until the obvious illegitimate or nonexistent midterm elections for Americans to figure it out.
The UK is the world's biggest cuck since leaving the EU.
So bad they even helped tank Kamalas campaign!
Nobody is doing anything about Israel. You think they’ll put their neck out for this?
What a cuck nation.
That'd be a great name for a trashy, right-wing streaming network.
China and Russia are the only ones with a conscience. Go figure.
Haha, good one. Unless you’re serious, in which case it’s even funnier
All the European countries are "monitoring" the Venezuela attack. Only China and Russia had the spine to speak against it

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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.
