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.
-
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.

Easy:
Modi is working with Russia to prevent Indian citizens from being tricked into the Russians meat grinder...
Now every Indian going to Russia will know ahead of time they're being used for the meat grinder and have a life expectancy of weeks and likely won't even be provided with a gun to fight a war.
Transparency!
Sure I'll take it. Just needs to tie in with China and Biden somehow.
From India's pov, China is always the Boogeyman, they don't really need explicitly involved.
For Biden I think the propaganda will be that America siding with Ukraine should be taking as a warning that America will side with Pakistan. Maybe even to the point where India starts a war with Pakistan by attacking America first.
If we do see WW3 I think China will take the Soviets spot where it starts out as them fighting their own war against Russia's side, then hopefully they align with the modern allies to stop the modern axis.
And we're left with a cold war style thing between China and the West.
Which like, we're kind of doing already?
There's just too many different wars going on and countries will continue to join one side or the other as they drag on.
Recent European elections are a good sign at least, but shit could expand to an actual World War really any day now. It's not guaranteed to pop off, but it's been too close to comfort for years now already
