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 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.

I'm certain plenty of them are much better people than you are. You're a terrible person. Your country would be better off if you left
On some level I wish there was a way to see what a obvious troll was saying so I could fight them in the future, Russians get their greedy fingers in every discussion online to sew discord and discontent so I would like to see a solid example of such bullshit
There was one comment where their proof of why Romani people are terrible, violent, incestuous, etc was an article about how bad the reputation of Romanian people are in other countries
Then one comment included a - did you even know that roma people trace back to India. Something about the people make the country so that's why it's trash heap of the world. It was said in a way where it was like a common understanding for people everywhere to think Indian people are terrible. The Indian comment was so out of no where
They were getting mad that I was insulting them because I don't know them and their community. Don't see the problem. First they classified millions of Romani people as violent, thieves, incestuous, whatever. Then they went ahead and characterized the nature of over a billion and a half people of South Asian subcontinental heritage by linking what they accuse as the nature of Romani people as being because they trace back a very very very long time ago to present day India and Pakistan
bruh if you don't even know the difference between Roma and Romania maybe don't litter the post with your comments
That's hilarious. This guys got to be stupid or someone in a troll farm trying stir up racial tension in other countries
You'd fit in in Israel. You sound like you'd love to be in the IDF. Back in time you'd love to support the British and take the food of Indians as they go through famine because it sounds like today you're happy to cast judgment over 1.4 billion people. You'd fit in with the party in 1941 Germany as well. You'd be happily on the side of genocide across the Americas. You're trash. You're anti-Israel from a distance but share their ideology. You're pure trash
You pointed out Roma people have roots back to India like that's some sort of huge gotcha that people understand means terrible people. You're in a racist bubble. Get out of it. In my country people from India have incredibly low crime rates and are usually highly educated. You need to make some friends outside of racist people. You seem to think what you believe in doesn't make you a bad person. I'm concerned for your country if you represent the average person
you are assuming hell of a lot and thats not good for you. now let me tell you my opinion on you, since you did the same.
you getting rattled and insulting tells me a lot about you.
youre a little rat thinking you know everything and you think you are so smart, but in fact are a sensitive snowflake, hiding behind your little keyboard with very little outdoor experience.
It's fine that you think that way of me. I am surprised though that you haven't removed that link about romanians to justify your racism for roma people. It makes you look very stupid. You'd travel to Georgia the country and google sights to see in Georgia, USA
and what else does your crystal ball tell you? you obviously never dealt with the problem. its easy to act fine on the keyboard. i bet im a better person then you.
you should try touching grass
