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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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 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.

Somewhere, somehow, those bunkers will need air intakes. Some potatoes to plug tubes, or mustard gas packets down the hatches ... the problem is, bunkers make excellent prisons and/or tombs.
The ultra wealthy also don't do shit in their own and will be expecting at least a small team of other people to cater to them while they weather the storm. There is no future where the ultra wealthy get to keep all the things they have collected.
wasnt there are article about zuckerberg/bezos compound they dont know what to do with the HUMAN waste they produced,a nd they wanted to dumped in some random area to pollute. since you dont pay for public services.
A healthy and well designed septic system will handle a free humans for decades if you treat it right.
That shouldn’t be the hard part.
There's a whole rich people Island neighborhood (I didn't think they were bunkers) that wanted to pipe their waste back to the mainland because they didn't think anything through when building it
I like shitting on billionaires as much as the next person, but presumably they didn't design any of this themselves. Most likely story is they just don't want to pay their fair share as usual.
They didn't want it near them and assumed they'd be able to pay their way to dumping it on the poors. Don't give them an out.
In what way am I giving anyone an out? Are we both talking about the Indian Creek/Surfside thing? If we are the whole shit storm is over the fact the billionaires don't want to pay have a link..
You don’t realize how far gone some “house slaves” are gone down the rabbit hole. They have their chosen special ones. Who will do anything they want.
I bet those ~~servant’s quarters~~ accomodations for staff are real nice so that they stay loyal.
They will, in all likelihood, involve counter measures like explosive collars.
Or the one from Horizon. Surgically implanted "Off" switches that kil function implanted into sterilized individuals. Literally had the surgery center at the entrance to the bunker.
What part of the device will do the killing?
Would installing such devices make the news?
What if an enemy did a mass triggering of switches?
In horizon the device was in your head from the moment you entered the bunker.
If you have to enter the bunker then the world has gone to shit. There is no more "news".
Then everyone below the billionaire would be kill.
Weird jump after defending a multi billionaire govenor that won't defend his citizens and just wants to make sound bites...
Fair, but in this case, they're not wrong.
My toilet needs to flush ~~somehow~~somewhere
Edit: flush somewhere, now somehow.
Press the buttons on the top.
Water is one of the most destructive things on the planet. Find where water is pumped out, plug it, flood it (or just let them sit in their own filth unable to flush a toilet)
