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.

Sounds like Israel tactics as they continue the Palestinian genocide.
I'm all for shitting on Israel, and I'm sure they've bombed weddings before, but if anything this is a US classic.
who do you think pulls the pedo-blackmail strings of the diaper filler in chief
The Statesian capitalist class. The idea that Israel controls the US is an attempt to scapegoat Israel now that public opinion on the Zionist entity has reversed. Israel may be a genocidal settler-colony, but it is only so because the US supports it for their own imperialist interests in the region.
"Statesian"? "Zionist entity"? You talk like Jordan Peterson.
You know there are much simpler, more descriptive words for these, yet you choose these 5 dollar words to sound more academic and thus more respectable. Academia is not about obfuscating ideas and obscuring reasoning.
I didn't realize Jordan Peterson was an anti imperialist. I'm not an academic, I chose my words deliberately to convey my feelings about the subjects.
Jordan Peterson is a grifter who uses big, confusing words around polarizing subjects. Like this:

So you use words like "Statesian" out loud when you're talking in-person?
Do you think "Statesian" is a big, confusing word? I don't acknowledge "America" or "Israel" as legitimate states.
while i think it was sold as the middle east pearl harbor or midway strategically, if you look at the scale of just what we know about the breadth of the child pedophilia ring operating with imperalist backing and then capturing it, i would still say that Israel is doing what they had planned back in the 90s. I would not be surprised if Israel helped 9/11 at this point. It wouldnt be the first time they killed Americans with the intent of drawing us into their war ala USS Liberty. But if you were to look at this, it lines up fairly nicely with the last several decades https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clean_Break:_A_New_Strategy_for_Securing_the_Realm
If you think everyday words are $5, get a weekly vocabulary lesson for free, online. It's not up to us to dumb ourselves down all the time, drag yourself UP, and get the needed hand.
If you want to have grown-up conversations, you have to use grown-up words.
No this is more like Russian tactics as they continue the Ukrainian genocide.

OK. They model themselves on Nazi Germany, who modeled themselves on slaver USians.
