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.
-
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.

Then why the need to denigrate the US and insist that there are active genocides without providing evidence? This isn't about educating anyone, it's about supporting your own claims. Very sus.
No, it's about demonstrating your ignorance of reality due to propaganda.
Besides, it's obvious from your tone that you're going to dismiss anything I say. Why should I waste my time on that?
Then demonstrate it if that's the whole point. Is it that time consuming to copy and paste a URL from your history?
But no, you're just gonna bail at the first person pressing you for sources. Not a good look.
Your answer to why I should waste my time seems to be that it would definitely be a waste of time.
What you're not grasping is that I don't owe you anything. I'm satisfied that you're profoundly ignorant.
Lose the attitude and maybe I'll humor you, but until then adios.
Lol Look at all these excuses and assumptions and now insults that you're making trying to wiggle out of it. Now it's clear to me that you're just making shit up and that you're trying to hide the fact that you got nothing.
Whatever point you thought you were making, you have made the opposite of that. I asked in earnest with an open mind but not so open that my brain falls out at your word. Now I must ask: are the current genocides in the room with us right now? 😂
You have not at any point been earnest. If you had you wouldn't need me to spell it out for you. Either that or you're just so ignorant it's offensive.
Riddle me this, dipshit: when did the genocide of Native Americans end?
Then educate, dipshit. You sure talk a lot but show nothing for it but instead you spread your fucking propaganda and lies. You had your chance to shut me up and yet here we are, with you running around in circles wasting more time trying to hide instead of simply pasting a simple URL but you've refused. How's that for "wasting time," asshole.
You tell us. It's your fucking point I'm not gonna argue it for you. Ever heard of the burden of proof? Now's the time to learn. Talk about ignorance.
