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.

A little black for the pots that call the kettles in the US black. See guys, were all infested with fascists on the inside.
Bro thinks one state in one country of the union is the same as you idiot voting Donald in twice, your a fool.
I didn't vote for Trump once. If you think it's just East Germany that's your problem, you're in for a rude awakening. Your fascists are the same as the US fascists, just as dumb and the same propensity for violence.
Strap in friend, liberalism is dying in the western world and there isn't a think you or I can do.
I'm Canadian, we booted ours out immediately once he made it clear he was in league with Donald.
Might want to turn your eyes to Alberta then. Lucky for you your right-wing freaks were pushed back under a rock when Trump 2.0 started. They won't stay quiet for long. As Canada deteriorates they'll climb back out.
You mean the province that consistently votes 75% to say in Canada, yah keep talking out your ass.
Bro, y'all have a fascist problem too. Carney probably wouldn't have won if Trump didn't threaten annexation. You'd have PP the Trump admirer.
I'm not trying to talk shit here. Be wary of the fascists within your own border too.
It happen as soon as Donald won and opened his big mouth, no shit everyone swapped, especially once pp started panicking and choking in the poles,the swing happen.
don't tell my the history of event of my own country dumbass, I know it better then you
You losers are just desprate to point fingers at others who were actually able to deal with these problems to make yourselves feal better, it's pathetic and the exact reason why nobody outside the US likes Americans.
Lol, good luck with all that. I see Canada is as doomed as the rest of the West.
sounds like cope loser.
