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.

Watch and learn, Democrats!
How about business as usual for the next 400 years? - Democrats, probably.
I think you forget that there are oppositional republicans in the way.
Pretty sure dems chose to nominate do-nothing candidates over a do-something candidate, twice.
Nope. The DNC did that. “Democrats” did not.
What democrats can we vote for that aren't part of the DNC machine? What are their names?
You can write in any name you like and always could.
But who are you recommending we're writing in exactly? Who is a real democrat but not beholden to the DNC?
What is their name?
Bernie. Or Elizabeth Warren. Not sure what you're after here beyond being on the attack.
Bernie and Elizabeth Warren both toe the DNC line and endorsed Biden without a fair primary what are you talking about?

You claimed that the DNC are the problem and not "real democrats", but all these so called real democrats are DNC stooges.
We're ending this conversation right now. Get a grip, you don't have to be so offensive. It still remains entirely unclear what your aim is other than to be angry.
You made that up completely. Don't put words in my mouth. Hint: I know that conservatives believe that liberals think exactly like conservatives but it's not true.
Democrats did it by falling in line and providing endorsements dictated by their DNC masters.
Just block me if you can't handle an opposing viewpoint, enjoy your echo chamber.
You can't provide any name for us to vote for, you fall in line with the DNC you claimed made the situation.
Going to block you now. Bye bye.
Glad you took my advice
I'll see you around
Do you pay for high-school in the US?
Do you not know what "& University" means?
is the answer to my question no?
Yes it is, but that doesn't make it right to just completely ignore the number two (after healthcare) source of personal debt in the US, something that wouldn't exist with free high school AND UNIVERSITY.
