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.

No women was beheaded for driving a car. It was the saudis who used to prohibit women from driving and beheading was not the punishement. Those beheafing non muslim is isis not Iran. Fuck off with your islamophobia.
A woman singer Parastoo Ahmadi was just sentenced to 74 lashes for singing without hijab.
You guys act like this is a game and I'm so tired of it. I'm a woman. A woman is going to be publicly brutalized for singing in public without religious garb. It's incredibly messed up that you guys can do whatever you want and hide behind Islamophobia.
Do you actually think that womens' rights in Iran are upheld as they should be?
The user said women get beheaded for driving a car in Iran which was false. It conflated saudi arabia with isis with iran which is islamophobic. Talking about women how many women was killed and raped with the west support in palestine, sudan ,libya etc?
The difference between you and me is that I'm talking about the oppression of women because I care and because it matters, and you are using it as a political talking point.
Israel kill women daily with the west support. You are a hypocrite with selective outrage . I never said it is ok to punish people for not respecting an extreme view of a religion, i simply reject spreaing lies like women getting killed for driving in Iran
Fair enough. One of my close friends is Iranian but lives in the US now and she spent a couple days in prison for not covering her hair properly so I guess I'm sensitive about it. My bad
Erm arent both Saudi Arabia and isis Muslim/Islam? How is that Islam phobic?
Aren't israelis jews. Does every jew because a colonizer stealing land and opressing palestinians? If i believed that i would be antisemetic because i generalized jews. Doing the same to muslim is islamophobic
Wasn't talking about individual Muslims. Was talking about nations that are Islamic states and follow Sharia law. They all seems to be restrictive on personal rights especially if you happen to be a woman or lgbt.
