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.

Thank god all the lefites stayed home on election day or this would have happened.
If you don't think this would've happened under Harris, I've got a great opportunity for you to make some money on crypto.
It’s almost as nothing happened between October 7th 2023 and November 5th 2024…
Their moral convictions stayed intact thank god. Well worth...checks notes...literal human lives.
Why don't you ever blame the people voting for establishment politicians?
They're also sticking to their moral convictions at the cost of human lives since it's becoming clear that the "fall in line crowd" actually isn't falling in line.
Perhaps the people voting for establishment politicians should take their turn "falling in line" if they care so much about human lives? They'd have to sacrifice some of their greed and entitlement though! I don't think it will happen in my lifetime.
What of the tens of thousands of dead and mutilated Palestinians at the hands of American bombs, jets, and funding from October '23 to January '25? If those deaths don't matter to you then why do these deaths matter to you? Or could it be that you don't really care either way and just want to use it as a political football?
I think we've found the answer!
Im not even American. Dont rope me in your weird-ass political posturing.
Obviously it was bad before but now its even worse and its worse for the rest of the world too.
Dont lecture me.
If you're not American then you should learn to mind your own business
You roped yourself into "political posturing" with your previous comment doing exactly that.
I don't know how genocide becomes "even worse." Care to explain that or is it that "its worse for the rest of the world too" and now that you're personally affected it, it's suddenly an issue.
Whatever helps you sleep at night, I guess.
You lost because you commented without thinking. You thought your instinctual response was good enough, it wasn't.
Get used to it.
If you're replying to a comment with weak ass arguments you have to expect a slap back or just stfu.
The election was stolen. This was going to happen regardless.
Give some semblance of proof or you're no better than the election deniers from 4 years ago. Hell, without even a theory you're even worse.
I'm not here to convince anyone, just here to comment. You're free to do your own research. There's tons of evidence and its going to be even more obvious come midterms.
Also, why do you think they were so vocal about pushing that narrative last go around? Because they knew with what they were planning, people wouldn't want to speak up for fear of precisely what you're doing. Fuck that noise.
And now you're taking a page from the anti-vax movement. No. I don't prove your points, you do that yourself. Should be pretty easy if it's so clearly happening.
I'm not trying to prove a point. I commented on a post and now you're harassing me. Step off.
🤣
You're half right
This was going to happen regardless (Harris is a supporter of Israel's actions), but the election was not stolen.
The evidence is out there. You don't have to believe it, but it 100% was stolen.
Every day you become more like MAGA.
