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.

Yeah it's probably their brother's, fathers, and sons. The people they raised in their dipshit religion. Fuck all religious nut jobs, especially Christians. What's the world going to do about the brainwashed?
Westerner whose predominant contact with religion is with Christianity, so gotta hate what they know.
Oh look, a redditor
This is lemmy dipshit. You've never used reddit? Wtf is your point?
The internet doesn't need to be a place where we yell at each other and throw hate around. If you're using lemmy make an effort to be a good person if you're able.
Everywhere should be a place where we hate facists and religious nut jobs. Walk on eggs shells all you want. Go be nice to trump and the like, I'm sure theyll think you're a good person. These mfers are not rational, it's time to bust out the heavy hands.
Oh I fully agree with being intolerant to those kinds of people. But for all our arguing I can't honestly say that it does anything in the real world. I don't come here to stress out, I come here to take a break from life, hang out with a positive community, and maybe learn some things.
Get a shower, a hair cut, touch some grass and socialize with some real people. You really need to stop being terminally online.
You have no idea what you're talking about. I love when people have no arguments, so they just say touch grass lmao. I've got a hottie fiancee bruh
Arguments are for rational conversations. Youre off the deep end and you haven't said anything worth arguing.
Okay religious nutbag
Oh so now I'm also religious eh?
You're a loon.
Uh huh... Still crying cause I said religious people are nut jobs. I'll burn some bibles and qurans for you.
