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.

USA is the biggest threat right now, how does he imagine Canada coming back for security under these circumstances?
What a moron, a nice fit for the rest of the US administration.
If you don't want to be my friend, I'll be forced to hit you.
USA is a bully. Fuck bullies, they should marinate in their own shit, and I hope Canadians are doing everything in their power to boycott anything American.
The US is a rapist.
Look at every country (including their own) they've "liberated" (it whatever self-appointed mission they've claimed).
How about we just tough it out for 90 days and y'all can talk to us after the midterms when they cut Donny's balls off.
I'll believe it when I see it.
I don't trust American democracy at all anymore.
Yup, it was on shaky ground before, nevermind that a pedo and his group of cronies have had two years to destroy nearly everything and stack the deck in their favor.
Half the period has passed, and he is about half finished to make it everything.
It's insane that Americans allowed Trump to become president! 😵💫
Or even better yet, how about we do what some of the other peops in the world are doing and saying Canada won’t deal with the US until the child rapist is gone or end of term and he is gone.
Big risk expecting American voters to do the right thing. Wouldn’t rule out Trump coming out of it even stronger
