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.

MODERATORS
And the Democratic Party responded with ...crickets.
Funny how its always about the Dems when voters did jack shit to stop the Republicans in the first place.
Hey USAian, out here in the rest of the world, we see your governing party going full fascist about the ICC, and your opposition party staying silent. And that's not fucking funny because it means this shit is the position of the sum of your political system. You want me to blame USAian voters? Sure whatever. But don't expect me to engage in your little intra-tribal blame game dance about Kamala in your last election.
It’s a systemic failure. A democracy where a third of the country doesn’t feel represented by their options (and thus chooses none) is not a functioning democracy, and that’s ignoring all the other shit going on with your voting system.
Of course we'd ignore the republicans. The dems are the only group we have any hope at all in ever working with, but they have to prove that they are even slightly on our side before we'll give them votes. The time of blindly trusting the DNC is long past. "Vote blue no matter who" is dead now and the centrists poisoned that well of solidarity we were all happily drinking from for so long.
Thats what being republican lite gets you, dont blame us for the DNC's bad choices. They started a genocide for some AIPAC money. They should count themselves lucky we will consider working with them at all anymore, because they cant win elections without their base, and their base doesnt beleive in supporting the war crimes regime in Israel, which the centrists refuse to disavow even now.
And I dont care if you like it. Your internet blame and outrage is meaningless to the rest of us. Not all of us embrace your sellout logic.
