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.

Russia can solve this problem tomorrow by withdrawing their invading forces from the sovereign country of Ukraine that they viciously and brutally attacked unprovoked in a disgusting and cynical attempt to return to Soviet-style regional hegemony. Everything that is happening to Russia is directly the fault of Putin and his corrupt oligarchic “government”, and a direct consequence of their brutalist authoritarian regime.
The only reason that Russia continues to destroy itself in Ukraine is because Putin has stupidly reconfigured Russia’s society, economy, and military for a meaningless war that they are woefully incompetent at fighting, and are now completely mired in. He must continue grinding away an entire generation of Russia’s citizens just to avoid collapse and internal regime change.
So, the next time you want to whine about the successful and justified tactics Ukraine uses to repel a brutal regime that bombs schools and hospitals, why don’t you preface it with the reason as to why Russia is doing this to itself.
shut up libtard, theres literally nothing like soviet union that russia is doing. Soviet Union was SOCIALIST, Russia is CAPITALIST (which liberals wanted). Stop blaming faults of capitalism and liberalism on soviet union.
Uh-oh, ML is leaking again.
Yes, the imperialist USA should withdraw from the Middle East as wel. Israel should cede Golan Heights, which belong to Syria
And the colonialist USA should leave the Americas.
Yes, and while we're at it, China should leave Taiwan alone. Fuck at this rate we'dolve the world problems. It's almost like all flavors of imperialism is bad
different cases
