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.

It did totally and completely under his watch. Gaza was holocausted under the Presidency of 1 Joseph Robbinette Biden Jr. Aka Genocide Joe.
He gave them over 14,000 (FOURTEEN THOUSAND) 2000lb bombs that they used to flatten Gaza. There are ample pictures. Go look. Go look at the bad GENOCIDE JOE did to the Gazans in the name of America.
Or did you only start paying attention to Gaza when Trump was inaugurated?
Oh, quit pretending like you care. If you did, you would support the only party to have a elected as Palestinian-American, and you would listen to what she has to say. But instead of supporting her, you glazed for Trump.

Quit projecting your callousness onto others.

22 Democrats join Republicans in a successful vote to censure Rashida Tlaib.
The whole house gave Netanyahu standing ovation after standing ovation while Tlaib sat there in protest. That's some incredible support.
Do you know anything about the situation at hand or you grasping at straws here?
The vote was 234-188.
Why don't we talk about the 212 Republicans that voted for her censure instead of the 22 democrats that joined them?
Why don't we talk about the 188 democrats that voted against censure?
What's your game plan? Weaken the Democrats so that the Republicans keep power in the majority?
That's what I say to all the braindeads who voted for the worst presidential candidate in history Ms. Holocaust Harris. Thank you for throwing your vote away and electing Donald Trump.
This comment exposes a significant lack of understanding of even the basics of the US election system.
No, you don't understand.
In a 2-party system, a vote for one party makes the other party more likely to lose (depending on where you live etc).
A vote for a third-party is effectively not much different than spoiling your ballot. It says you're okay with sacrificing your vote to send a message, but you don't care which of the two parties wins. Either is fine for you.
Not voting is worse than voting third-party or spoiling your ballot. It sends the message that either of the 2 parties is fine for you. That's it.
So consider that if you think you sent a message against the Democrats with your vote. Because most people probably just sent the message that they don't care if Trump wins, and they don't care if Harris wins.
9.7 million people sent a message to democratic politicians, but they don't care.
The senate confirmed Marco Rubio 99-0.
Joe Biden welcomed Donald Trump home on inauguration day. Bold stance against dictatorial fascism.
Obama and Trump laughed together like buddies chopping it up at Jimmy Carter's funeral. Now that is how you defeat tyranny.
Red vs Blue is what keeps the people divided. The politicians expediently pass resolutions when it comes to money for foreign wars and pay raises for themselves. Things that help the average citizen get scrutenized for years as a means of attrition so things like $15 minimum wage are outdated policy.
Minimum wage should be at least $24 an hour, but they'll tell you Person A who is working a certain job shouldn't be paid a certain amount because Person B is doing something harder and deserves more money. And then the fight is lost on who's job is harder. Thrown in a boomer who thinks raising the minimum wage from $7 to $24 is too dramatic because they bought a house on a summer job salary in the 1960's and you have their recipe for divide.
Whether you want to believe it or not your two party system is actually a uniparty system until you stop voting for either one.
Why would any politician care about people who don't vote?
Historically, it's easier for them to campaign in swing states than to get non-voters to vote.
As well, not voting doesn't send a clear message. That might've been your message. 9,699,998 of the others might've just not voted for Harris because she's a woman. Who knows? Not the politicians, because they're not on Lemmy.
If your politicians don't think there is a soul searching emergency when they have a nearly 10 million vote swing against them in favor of someone they spent 10 years branding as a fascist, racist, rapist demagouge who would bring the end of democracy then uhh ok. I guess whatever excuses you can give to keep supporting them then sure.
I'd rather support the Democrats than support Trump's victory, which, if you didn't vote, you have done. Congratulations on your "moral" victory.
A "moral" victory is what you are on here parading around.
Harris lost because she was the worst candidate ever. Worse than Trump. Worse than Hillary Clinton, but you can't see it because of the democrats coconut vibez blaming everyone but their weak ass selves.
Consider never voting again since it seems you have no idea what you are doing. We don't want another Harris disaster.
What are "democrats coconut vibez"?
The exact reason Donald Trump is president - so thank you for that.
"democrats coconut vibez" are Republicans and people who couldn't be bothered to vote? Lol
Iconic name you’ve got there.
Gracias

and now it's about to get even fucking worse. it was a choice between kamala harris and fucking trump. Yeah, both suck. But one of them will actively make things way worse.
88% destroyed.
If you drink 88% of a glass of water and someone else drinks the other 12%, who had more water?
you think it's going to stop at Gaza? Guarantee, israel will destroy the west bank next. and trump will provide even more weapons than biden ever did.
You may be correct, but maybe now the TDS democrats will join the rest of the anti-genocide movement because their guy isn't overseeing the genocide anymore. They have the bad guy they want now.
Or they are going try to mock and belittle people who didn't fall in line to vote for with THE WORST PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IN HISTORY who clearly had no intent to stop the evil destruction. Their imaginary scenarios become the dogma they are blinded by.
i actually agree with you. the dems are worse than useless. they do literally nothing and field garbage candidates and wonder why they lose. we need a better party.
careful dude, you’re on .world
Trump is already president again. That next paycheque isn't coming for you, lol
