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!
-
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.

Come November, the US is going to have a Pro-NATO, anti-nazi leader....or the exact opposite. That is what I was referring to. Your nonsequiter comment doesn't merit engagement.
You're either quite optimistic or a trumpist trying to be smart. Either way, doesn't matter of Trump or Biden win, neither will end US terrorism. That's my point. But if Trump win, the decline of the US will accelerate.
Your point of the US doing bad shit is not relevant to the topic, just you pointing something out. The point was either "the US, that does bad shit, will either be on the good guy side or the bad guy side of the next nazi-war" the non-vatiavle of "the US also does bad shit" is not relevant. If you want to dive into that completely separate topic...one side will further entrench "US does bad shit" and the other side will maintain the status quo on "US doing bad shit" AND be the option that still allows for potential change...and also fights against the nazis.
Pick your poison.
Well the US being proto-nazis for over a hundred sounds quite relevant to "please wait until we're not on the nazi side", but you feel free to keep ignoring US terrorism. Have a nice day.
