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.

Some of his ideas, like defunding CBC, are foolish.
I don't think Pierre Poilievre is a Nazi. Statements like that are unhelpful.
He likes to dine with Nazis, and we all know the old adage about Nazis at a dinner table.
People said the same thing about MAGA/Trump.
Conservatives are holding the door open for fascism, and if you can't close it, it will come in.
You're adorable.
PP was part of the Harper government which muzzled climate scientists, has made an enemy of the free press and implemented a racist snitch line to report religious minorities. Yeah, that's the kind of "free speech" Poilievre believes in, the kind that shut the fuck up and doesn't contradict the party line. So yeah, he's a fucking fascist and you are a fucking idiot to think he is anything but a fucking fascist.
That was America's favorite phrase in 2024...
PP is a populist conservative politician so he's not actively fascist, but do you know what happens when your society has a fascism-shaped hole? Politicians like PP expand to fill that hole.
If it walks like a populist and it quacks like a populist...
Oh ffs. Stop playing it down. Look at the riding he’s being given. Battle river. It’s conspiracy city. Far cry from Carleton.. I know that part of Alberta well . I’m telling you right now: it ain’t good . He went from serving coffee to the convoy to living with them.
Step off with the gaslighting. This is the type of exact crap the Americans just went through. Knock it the hell off.
The dude is aligned with trump and is a fascist. I wouldn't call them nazis just yet, but they are certainly very, very fascist.
I work in a very conservative workplace in Alberta, and when I call trump a fascist I get zero pushback. In fact, they just nod in agreement. When I say that Peter rabbithait is aligned with trump, they don't argue against that point either.
The "good ones" know their support for him is short lived, and they will have to piss or get off the pot soon. I hope goodness prevails.
Spoken like a true nazi
Lol
arguably worse, pp is a weasel who would play a nazi for a vote or stop for 2
the guy stnds for whtever serves him best
Hey, just wanted to say you're right. And these people here are bad faith commentators. They push things towards hyperbolic statements in the same way the right went nuts in their own way.
Unfortunately I fear this is what we have to come to accept now until everything blows up.
Protip:
Shove your head up your butt and you won't have to close your eyes to ignore the nazis
