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.
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.

I relish in the fact that my comment calling Trump a Goy and Bibi a racist piece of shit along with his government got some people ruffled under their feathers.
Good thing you’re born with the right parents so you don’t get carpet bombed into oblivion by a nation that has no right to exist and wouldn’t exist if the US wasn’t in their back pocket.
Jews even hate Jews that aren’t the right colour or race of people.

But god forbid we criticize this slime for what is truly is. Horrific. But you stand tall from your internet podium.
Shame on you for calling me bigot when I’m defending people who have suffered at the hands of Zionist, Jews and Israel.
How long till this post gets removed as well? Cowards.
Zionists hate Jews which are not the right color. Your comment is doing a lot of conflating.
So this Wikipedia statement is factual then?
The arrival of Zionist settlers to Palestine during this period is widely seen as the start of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. The Zionist claim to Palestine was based on the notion that the Jews' historical right to the land outweighed that of the Arabs.
Ethiopians are not Arabs. Arabic Jews experience much less racism in Israel then Ethiopian ones.
Yes but it is important that in the past the word Jew got used a lot instead of Zionist. While factually correct, the sect doing behind the colonization of Palestine were all Zionists. A cow is an animal but an animal is not a cow type of beat. Whateverr reason they used was made up retroactively. Initially they thought about colonizing Uganda but then went for Palestine.
What makes it more confusing is that Zionists saw Jews as an ethnicity.
Whereas religious Jews did not define themselves by race but by religion.
