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.

Israel is invulnerable while the US and most of Europe exists. No one is turning from them. It's simply not happening.
Oh you just wait. Europe is already turning on you. Shame it will be too late for the children that are killed tonight, as we speak. But you do you...
This is just silly man.
Supporting a genocidal apartheids state is sillier.
Wonder why nobody tried to just kindly ask Hitler to stop. Instead they violently shot the Nazi's that were killing them. So uncivilized
Israel isn't an apartheid state either. Arabs are 20% of government lol
Comparing the Jews to Nazis is a stretch of very unique proportions

Comparing groups that take similar actions is totally reasonable. Just because you don't like the comparison doesn't mean it is wrong.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck... you might be acting like a Nazi.
It not being correct means it's wrong.
The double posting tells me I must have touched a nerve. Maybe you should ask yourself why it stung so much? Perhaps some part of you sees the validity of the comparison but your cognitive bias won't let you admit it.
Quack quack dude.
No just saw that article over coffee a couple minutes later and thought it was funny
Whatever helps you feel better about being inconsistent.
You seem to think this is my personal opinion, but I am sharing the opinion of Israel as a state
Fuck off.
Netanyahu said “You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible. 1 Samuel 15:3 ‘Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass’," .
I'm done debating with genocide cheerleaders.
Don't you have some undergrads to post threatening messages about?
Words matter and you like to clipchimp to frame it favorably for you like the dishonest bad faith asshole you are. There is no debate anymore, bibi ordered a genocide in his own words, and the IDF is serving it up.
you go to Cornell by any chance?
