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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Don't waste your time. When they are already in favor of the attacker, anything the victim does will seem immoral.
Hopefully the next time a missile hits an AI data center most of those accounts will go offline.
Are you implying that I’m in favor of Russia, or are you implying that the US is somehow a victim?
US the victim? What are you blabbering? Ukraine is.
Ok, so you’re saying I’m pro-Russia because I critique Ukraine at all? And I’m somehow the one being accused of having a childlike perspective on this thread.
You have been accused, not by me, to have child-like capacity for understanding.
All evidence points to me being correct.
Yes. You're a very smart boy. Mommy is so proud of you.
And yet, here you are, hurling insults without backing your claims up at all, like a goddamn coward.
I'm explaining their insult. I didn't call you child like in any sense. In thought it was clear.
No. implying you're at worst a schill, or at best an idiot.
Well, at least I’m advocating for a point of view instead of just making a shallow assertion, then backing it up by name calling, you fucking pussy (see, that’s just me relating to you on your level).
You're not advocating a point of view, you're parroting propaganda.
Also, your insult doesn't relate to me on my level. It was just vulgar. But I can't expect something witty from someone half armed.
BTW, that was an insult.
Yes, I am insulting you because you keep chirping without saying anything that contributes to the discourse. You must be very unsure about your perspective.
For funsies, I gave an AI your post history and asked it to assess you. Here is what it said
So I guess I stand corrected. You're not a child, you're emotionally stunted.
Edit:
I wanted to be fair, so I analyzed my own history too
I guess I need to demonstrate more patience. Something to work on.
Why are you more interested in me than addressing the topic? Just kind of sad really, but I suppose it’s perfectly in character with the type of person that needs to hide behind ai slop to troll post.
