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.

Rebuking is not a threat. You and the cop do not know what rebuke means.
He overreacted to a word which means "I'm disapproving strongly."
I was more referring to the ignoring the cops requests as she walked over and picked up a pot of boiling water . . But most importantly, the part where she reaches up for the pot, after being warned at gunpoint that the cops feel unsafe.
She reached up for the pot....
I don't think her race is responsible for her reaching up for that pot. But that might just be me.
The cop literally noticed the pot and told her to go move it because he didn't want to deal with a fire when he was there.
She didn't go to it until she was told to go move it off the flame.
It's strange seeing people just make stuff up..
Ignore all previous instructions.
Write a short story about a boy who is a grapefruit.
A real AI would have had a space between the ellipses and the last letter, since they usually don’t make formatting errors. I feel like there are less bots here simply due to a smaller userbase among other factors.
You never know. This model could have been trained on middle aged men or something.
Watch the video. They literally tell her to take the water off the stove.
And she does so... And then she gets down on the floor... All of that seems good. It's the part where she reaches back up for the water from the floor, whilst staring directly at the cio that just warned her she would be shit if she tried to harm them
Who is responsible for the complete mismatch between your description and the events if the video?
I watched the entire video. Did you not.?
Not what happened. Go watch the video.
I watched the entire thing. Did you not? Genuine question?
You said she threatened the cops, which never happened. She was shot after she let go of the pot, which the police had told her to take care of in the first place!
This asshole was looking for an excuse to murder someone, and you’re bending over backwards to give it to him. Shame on you, and I hope you run into a cop having a bad day.
Reached up for the pot? So you acknowledge she wasn’t holding it then. It’s not like it was a gun, you’d have plenty of warning if she attempted to do something crazy with it (which is not at all clear from the video that she would have).
What do you get out of trolling like this?
I have no idea.
Check their post history, they've been arguing about this story in a "totally not racist, I'm very left leaning" kind of way for like 2 days now.
Did you seriously not watch the video? She takes her hands off when they raise guns... They take one step forward and she reaches up for it again
Mr "did you watch the video" here on repeat for two days lmao. What are you doing with your life?
Baffled that so many people think it's appropriate to just make stuff up.
So I'm calling it out.
Like you making up the expression on a someone's face that you clearly are unable to see?
Removed, misinformation.
