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.

How dare they ruin Christmas!
That shit is as religious now as Thanksgiving is about the native Americans
Keep people scared, whether there is an attack or not now they are winning because we are scared.
These attacks are ridiculously rare and you are incredibly unlikely to be caught up in one or even in the vicinity of one.
thats the thing.. I knew germans who were afraid to go to christmas markets that year someone drove a van down a street at a christmas market. if you were at THAT market, on that day, at that hour, at that minute and ON THAT ROAD you still had a poor chance of getting harmed.
Ok but if you were harmed that isn't going to be a big comfort knowing that. We are evolved to avoid misery more than to seek happiness.
whatever you wanna do, man
hey, your username is apropos
It's like the "mass shooting" hysteria in America. Nothing like the media portrays. I'll spare y'all the numbers, because facts are never welcome in that particular debate, but it's nothing like they present. Rare, as you said.
Does it strike no one else as odd that the government and media seem to be inadvertently colluding to scare us? They have different reasons, eyeballs-on-content and mass control, respectively.
I'm old, grew up with 3 TV stations. They had to report basically the same news or be regarded as biased, which was a mortal sin. Boring as paste. Trust was a major factor in deciding what news to watch. (And of course, that was biased in itself.)
No conspiracy here, they're just doing what works to get what they want.
America has a gun problem, that isn't debatable.
America has more guns and far far more mass shootings than anyone else. If compare yourself to your peers you will see just how bad it is in America. I have never been within 500 miles of a school shooting, can anyone in America say that?
Religion(s) of peace and love...
No don't you understand it isn't because of religion it is because of some political things the UK did back in the 1930s. You know according to people on this site.
Religion of peace
This is the best summary I could come up with:
European Home Affairs Commission Ylva Johansson said the polarisation in society caused by the Israel-Hamas war was increasing the risk of violence.
A similar warning came from German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser who told reporters the EU had to keep a close eye on threats and propaganda, as there was a high "risk of further emotionalisation and radicalisation of violent Islamist perpetrators".
Many European countries have seen a surge in hate crimes since Hamas gunmen attacked Israeli communities, leaving about 1,200 people dead and many others held hostage in Gaza.
Police said the 26-year-old French suspect, identified as Armand R, who comes from a non-religious Iranian family had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group.
Last week two boys were detained in different parts of the country on suspicion of planning a militant Islamist attack on a Christmas market in the city of Leverkusen.
The head of German domestic intelligence in the eastern state of Thuringia, Stephan Kramer, has warned of the "considerable potential for danger" posed by Hamas-sympathisers, not just to Christmas markets but to major sporting events such as the Paris Olympics and the Euro 2024 football championships next year.
