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.

Things would be more stable if literal toddler was in charge, ffs.
I’ll take the toy monkey with the cymbal now, thanks
😂
toddlers wouldnt time it perfectly so his toddler buddies can insider trade
Toddlers at least have more empathy than him.
Hmm.
Economy go CRASH every time Republicans are in charge.
Hmmm.
Nah, we should definitely whine about a war going on between two other nations on the other side of the planet and boot the team that was recovering our economy by voting 3rd party or not voting at all.
That's working out great for us.
I sincerely believe that there was a concerted effort to disillusion voters in 2016 and 2024. The whole push for Bernie bros to not vote for Hillary and the push to reject the Democrats for the Israeli-perpetrated genocide in Gaza felt so similar.
Obviously plenty of people did feel strongly that the Democrats weren’t worth supporting, but I think the initial push on both of those, and a large amount of the continued support for them, was perpetrated by people who wanted Trump to win. They didn’t have to convince people to vote for Trump, they just had to convince them not to vote for the Dems. These actors understand first-past-the-post voting well enough to weaponize it.
but muh egg prices
There was no Tariff ‘exception’ announced on Friday,” he said
Feels like we are close to “We have always been at war with Eurasia.”
Market manipulation as hell
This one is just pure stupidity. Border Control and Customs announces the exemption one day, Trump immediately walks it back the next, all while markets are still closed. A bunch of idiots probably bought options on Apple and are going to get absolutely screwed when markets open today. If I had to guess the exemption was planned and got out too early somehow.
God this guy is a greasy fucker. Where did he appear from all of a sudden anyway? I heard he lived in the same building as Epstein.
Snip, Snap, Snip, Snap.
Do you have any idea the physical toll 3 tariffs have on the body?
repost
God, this guy is a complete dick.
Waving hands around like an idiot
"You could say I've made an exception to the exception."
Was that almost a week in a steady state? Guess their brokers where on vacation and couldn't finish unloading their shares for a bit.
It would be nice if we could limit it to one day a week.
Fucking hell 🤦
Tim Apple and Jensen AI Huang are going to be furious.
He’s such a stupid cunt. Which is why I only bought back in with half the shit I liquidated in March.
