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.

MODERATORS
If Ukraine keeps beating Russia, they may have to release the pee tapes
P as in pedo.
Unfortunately, they could release a 4k dolby atmos IMAX film of trump raping a schoolbus full of kindergardners, and MAGA would foam at the mouth trying to defend it. I don't think anything can touch him at this point.
100% this. At this point all the "ohh, but don't talk about (shitty thing The Dictator did this week), talk about the Epstein files" bullshit is just a smoothly running distraction campaign that works for MAGA.
American's do not care that Trump is a rapist and a paedophile. They made their peace with that long ago and elected him anyway.
Honestly, I can't even understand the motivation. "Ohh, if only the Great American People knew he diddled kids, we'd get rid of him. The millions of dead overseas (between wars started or extended and USAID), the rebuilding of the US Federal machine as a tool of fascist oppression, state control of media, masked goons disappearing people in the street, all of that stuff we're pretty fine with, but diddling some white blonde kids is where we draw the line." Do you think this makes you look good?
I've already seen people on Facebook saying "I don't care if he's a pedo as long as he deports all the criminals", and things can get even worse on the front of defending Trump...
Someone always comes along with almost exactly this reply, as if its a valid reason to keep hiding whichever gross pedo evidence is in question.
Its a valid point though, there is enough out there now to bury anyone in a real nation. In the us they have punished the victims and paid the perpetrators. Its not as if they should not release more info, more that just releasing it does nothing if no charges are laid.
