World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Whatever you say mate.
Just casually ignore everything else, including the 3000+ murders the government admits to
Yawn.
I'm assuming you are off to live in the utopian theocractic paradise of Iran then?
None of this changes the fact that Iran just murdered thousands of people.
Lemme guess, you think Russia were justified in their invasion of Ukraine and Kim Jong Un is an alright guy.
Easy.
You don't believe Iran is a despitic theocratic regime capable of murdering thousands of its own citizens.
Its not a stretch to assume you believe Russia is on the right side of history as well.
Also, for some reason you think I support the american attacks. I dont. Like I wrote in my first post.
And somehow you think America's attacks mean Iran is innocent.
The new ruler is literally the son of the old one.
Everything else you wrote is nonsense. I'm bored of you.
Love that your ultimate response to any argument is "I'm bored of you" because you can't bother to try to inform yourself and are simply pretending to know all about world affairs by going off vibes 🙄
Don't waste your time talking to tankies
At least this one gives it away with his name. Usually their simping for China gives them away.
They only accept their little cesspit of information as facts. Everything else is conspiracy theories or state funded propaganda.
this dude found out that the moon landing was an american public relations operation and concluded that the moon must not be real
So fun fact, the NED is what the CIA was in the 1970s.
You know all those coups that you were told were totally a positive thing and that you needed to fight back evil communism otherwise you'd have to pay for healthcare and wouldn't be able to afford food or rent?
You know all that objectively false infomation used to sway public opinion on what was the most evil set of military operations in the history of the world, resulting in more dead than the holocaust and more extermination camps that the entirety of all wwii nations during wwii?
Yeah, the NED is doing that for the 21st century, because for idiots, one extra layer of obscurity is all that's needed for them to wash their hands and agree with whatever fantastical physically impossible drivel the CIA wants them to believe.
You're not one of them, right?
