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’ve seen people on Lemmy call the Pope a Russian asset, and they didn’t appear to be joking.
I mean he is also always armed. He had the Papal can(n)on on him all the time.
If they kill males 18-60 Israel calls them Hamas or Hezbollah. Even if they are workers in a catholic church.
They learned it from us. Bush's War on Peace. Anyone within X feet of a drone strike or bombing was auto designated an "Enemy Combatant"
The funny thing is the USA actually did distinguish it as "civilian collateral" in their internal reports, which I believe they got mad at Assange for leaking the worst ones.
I kinda doubt Israel is documenting women and children as non combatants when they clearly want everyone dead.
Uhhh. I still think that was US learning from Israel... Israel doing this shit ain't new. Ask Rachel Corrie.
Bold of you to assume that they have a lower cut off at 18
English cutoff is at 18.
There is no cutoff in Hebrew.
When you're a hammer everything looks like a nail.
"government-run Lebanese"
They're trying so hard to repeat the "Hamas run" prefix that they used to discredit and diminish victims of israels genocide in Gaza.
There's an "editorial complaints" link at the bottom of BBC news website.
That’s the opposite. They are saying government run to distinguish them from Hezbollah
When Israelis report deaths the BBC don't say the "government run" [agency]. It's othering language.
The Lebanese government isn’t an enemy to Israel so I don’t see any propaganda reason for them to do it, the writer probably just wrote it that way without an ulterior motive imo
If they can't bomb Irish defense soldiers they'll get the next best thing.
Is this a reference to the IDF’s murder of Irish peacekeeper Dermot McLaughlin in 1987, or something else?
Hezbollah? How does that even make sense?
When they slaughter civillians they always make these claims. Instead of calling out their lies, the allies of Israel instead put the burden of proof of innocence on the victims, and by the time the lie gets exposed fully, Israel moved on to have committed a dozen more massacres.
All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.
Oops
It was ~~Hamas~~Hezbollah.
The IDF used the steeple as a reference and the Christians are being slowly squeezed out of Israel too.
Irish Catholics are gonna start blowing up synagogues.
Israel gonna go through some troubles.
Can't wait for this to show up on CBN or the 700 club. Sike they <=3 ride isreal harder than biden.
Oh no! Not the Catholic Church! But those assholes would never attack....
....List of all Catholic Churches near by....
What I'm trying to say is that they should call before they demolish. There could be people inside! And also, I live far from one and I gotta tell you, not hearing the stupid 🔔 bell every hour is fantastic. It's like no Jehovah weekends!
But unfortunately the demo has to come with war and all the fear stuff. As a total cynic I still am human and I wish all you people out there in war time, pace. If you are causing war, look around you and ask yourself if that is good.
