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. 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.

Get fucked, France.
Why is the world currently all about letting all these asshats get away with fucking monstrous things??
Bcoz US
Bcoz AI
"currently"
they always have been. what's changed is our awareness. and the ruling class doesn't like that awareness. so they've tuned the algoithms to break it, bought twitter, pumped the internet with rage from russian troll farms, astroturfed everything with ai slop, and broke web search and our ability to find anything.
the worst part is, it seems to be working. gen z had more access to truth than any generation before, but instead they only got propaganda. they got prageru kids, they got a youtube altgorithm that "randomly" pushed nazi shit, they got social media platforms that disencentivize engaging on issues
don't forget banning tiktok for not complying with the mainstream narrative.
Because most people in high ranking positions can see themselves in Putin's shoes before they can see themselves in our shoes. They worry if they do it to Putin someones coming for them next. Kind of the same way the Democrats systematicaly let Trump get away with everything his first term.
Because it's the western world's biggest aircraft carrier right in the middle of the Middle East. Everything in geopolitics is a strategic decision by everyone trying to get their slice and step on another.
We used to do that by invading and capturing territory from others, but that has fallen out of favor, so we use "diplomacy" and "soft power" to mostly get what we want. Russia and Israel didn't get the memo.
If your aircraft carrier is not only commanded by a deranged criminal, but also manned by a crew of lowlife criminals (IDF) attacking any and everyone as well as taunting and mocking you, while you pay their everything, it is time to retire it.
They did get the memo. But just like Trump and his ability to walk all over everything and everyone without repercussions, they are basically saying, "Go ahead. Arrest the leader of a 'free' nation and see how quickly the illusion of stability crumbles." They're basically pressing the barrel of the other nation's guns more firmly into their forehead like the "crazy" villain in every shitty action movie daring the hero to turn dark, knowing that if they pull the trigger, there will be a cascading sequence of destabilization and a shattering of the fragile state of "peace" the world has been going through since the end of WW2. Everyone knows we're precariously perched on the edge of calamity and no one wants to be the one to push over the first domino. Everyone in power is profiting quite nicely and pretty much getting everything they want. There is no need for them to upturn this state in order to bring another political criminal to "justice." This order won't last much longer, but that's because there are external forces like the impending climate collapse will force their hand, not because anyone will stand up and do the right thing. But because there are no other options left but to gamble on the future of this existing order.
It's called big mob. The french ppl have nothing to do with those deep state reptilians.
