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.

This puts the US admin in a weird spot. This guy is charged with possessing CA images. Will the USA protect him or hand him over?
It kinda sets a precedence in a way on if pedos are protected or not. We all know the reality but in such a high profile situation like this where there is a charge and he is not politician what will they do?
IMO, Given he is partially African American and generally operated out of the UK, they will hand him over, but that sends the very clear message pedos are to be punished.
Interesting position that’s occurring here (I suspect by design of the UK) . The USA protects its pedophiles, however verbalizing protection of a non white not fully American pedophile is a possible stretch.
The US doesn't protect pedos per se, it protects the disgustingly rich and those connected to them.
It's just that there's a great deal of overlap between that group and the pedos
I suspect Tate is not in the obscenely weathy group, or he wouldn't have been imprisoned in the first place.
Barron and Trump love them. They aren't going anywhere. Trump will have them babysitting his grandkids.
I don't disagree with your assessment...but the fact they elected one to the highest office is a pretty powerful message (on normalization) to the rest of the world.
You seem to focus too much on the pedophilia. It's not that these people like pedophilia. They like the rich. And if the rich are pedophiles, who cares, they are rich.
No, they like pedophiles, too.
The love of rich is stronger than the hate of pedophiles, yes that is how it looks.
I can't understand it personally. Only one of those is actually a despicable crime. Worshiping rich is people idiotic to me, letting them be above the law, on that kinda crime goes well beyond idiotic.
The Tate brothers will be sacrificed for the sake of optics.
It's almost like that's their purpose.
They need to prosecute some to show virtue and intent. They just don't go after the billionaires.
The only reason the filthy rich go to prison is for harming other filthy rich.
99% chance they will be suicided in a holding cell.
TBF they should be sacrificed just for the hell of it.
