A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Meanwhile, 50-100k Palestinian civilians had been slaughtered. Why is it fucking breaking news that a tiny few soldiers have been soldiered while participating in a genocide? That's literally their job. Being killed in the name of the gestapo in chief.
How dare they fight back from extinction!
why is it breaking news
Why hate on people sharing positive news?
If Gaza didn't resist, it would not have to be like this!!1!
Let's ignore the last 80 years of it being like this.
Why is it fucking breaking news that a tiny few soldiers have been soldiered while participating in a genocide?
I mean it's not breaking news but, like all colonial warfare, it's much harder for the Palestinian resistance to get kills on the IDF than vice versa, so this is newsworthy in the same way minor developments in the Ukraine war are newsworthy.
In other news, four innocent nazis experienced a brutal terror attack while peacefully raiding the Warsaw ghetto.
How is this breaking? They're in a war against mostly unarmed civilians. The shocking part is that .01% are actually facing consequences? "Breaking: 4 Russian soldiers missing" can someone tell me why one is a breaking news story while the other wouldn't even be mentioned other than the weekly update on Russian losses?
It's like how people are getting excited about Gavin Newsom's dank memes.
When the opposition is winning in every aspect, even a minor piece of opposition becomes remarkable.
Israel lying like always. They always minimize their casualities numbers
Oh I don't doubt how low their losses are because they're mostly fighting unarmed civilians, often while just trying to get something to eat.
Listen, those journalists just happened to all be standing near a camera that was definitely Hamas
You are underestimating hamas and guerilla warfare. They lied about the number of killed hamas fighter. Why would they notclie about their own casualities?
I'm not underestimating Hamas or guerilla warfare. I was in Baghdad in 2005 for "the surge".
I would argue thst hamas is better than iraqi resistant , i would argue that they are more comparable to vietcong and that us army was a lot more competant than the diaper army
This is from middleeastmonitor its breaking because its a celebration post. Theyve been trying to capture idf soldiers for months.
neat. nothing of value was lost.
4 less people child murderers
I'd argue that something of value was gained.
4 nazis missing
Wow... Soldiers die.... Who would've thought
Their death is not confirmed. Hamas has been trying to expand their captive list for a while and it is looking like they might have finally succeeded.

Do have anything smaller?
Idk if it’s in stock but maybe a violin the size of an electron?
But we might want to save that particular violin for the day the orange turd dies.
I think we'd need to go so far into the subatomic realm for an appropriate violin that even antman would struggle to find it.
Someone get me the world's smallest violin.
....and four brave cowboys lost their hats...
