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.

Waiting for Putin to claim Ukraine is crossing the line doing this. While he is perfectly OK with bombing Ukrainian Nuclear power plants and dams. Things that are actually clearly war crimes.
It's so cool that Ukraine has found a way to strike back, and they do it within international law!!
Fuck you Russia and fuck you Putin.
Your days are numbered!
So many of Moscow's 'Red Lines' have been crossed it's starting to look like a red carpet.
Russia’s days are not numbered.
Ruzzia will be a third world shithole country forever. Everyone outside of Moscow and St Petersburg squats over latrine pits, your food is the worst in the world, your men are all addicted to anti-freeze vodka and smoking, which explains why the greatest cause of death in ruzzia is self immolation. Even your women hate you because they are all trying to marry westerners. When you finish losing this war, you will never get your overseas assets back, or your petroleum customers, and you will be paying reparations forever. Pootangs legacy is that you will remain peasants forever. Well deserved, I say :)
They said Putin, not Russia.
He's just a russian .ml troll, nothing can change his mind
In that statement "Your" can refer to either or both.
Why do you think they aren't? It's not like revolution is unheard of there. Do you have any real reason, or just faith. I don't really think believing in things makes it true, or the world would be a much different place.
Because the revolution is not likely to happen anytime soon. Of course, I can be wrong.
It's the only thing ruzzian peons do well :)
Why do you think that? Again, belief is useless. Do you have actual reasoning?
Why do you believe it's happening? Are you willing to bet the revolution will happen before the end of the year?
Every day is numbered, it's called a calendar.
They had 4 revolutions in the 1900s.
They're slightly overdue for another humiliating collapse.
Ok then everybody’s days are numbered…
You are accidentally correct! The best kind of corr.. Wait a minute!
Not with that attitude
