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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.

what the fuck has your comment to do with the article?
We all knew that there are also people dying in Palestine due to military operations conducted by Israel, but your whataboutism does not justify the killing of civilians by terrorists...
The fact is that Israel has been creating the conditions for this violence for decades. Hamas wouldn't even exist if Palestinians weren't the victims of an apartheid state and ethnic cleansing
yeah yeah...Israel bad, Palestine good, I got your meta now...🥱
Israel bad, Palestine bad
hamas cunts
You’re right, no point in debating with people like you.
It's okay to kill civilians if you're the government, but not if you're the rebels? Is that the logic?
no it's not, read again. and calling them "rebels" is just wrong, those hamas fuckers are terrorists, nothing else!
terrorist is loaded language. all it means is you don't like someone else's politics.
This must be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.
is it because no one ever taught you what loaded language is?
Israel is doing settler terrorism but you're not calling the IDF terrorists. Why is that?
easy, because they are not. Same reason I don't call Palestines terrorists, they simply aren't.
But Hamas, Hisbollah, Al Kaida, Taliban those a straight up terrorist scum.
Ehhh, you've lost me. Israel has done enough war crimes to be considered a terrorist state.
Okay hassan.
ok apartheid apologist?
no you simple fuck. I just declare terrorists like the Hamas or Al Quaida as terrorists and although both Israel and Palestine have done atrocities to each other they are both not terrorists and I don't excuse either of them of their actions!
But I won't play your degenerated meta game of Isreal bad, Palestine good or vice versa. They are both responsible for this conflict, they both can end it and they both have stupid, mostly religious, reasons for what is happening. There is no black and white in this conflict and now fuck off and let me be.
Tell me you don't know what you're talking about without saying "I don't know what I'm talking about".
✌️
sigh okay hassan.
