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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Anybody who thinks the mere corruption will divorce a nation ( monarchists ) from their beloved exclusive-validity..
is baseless & delusional.
None of the nationally-exclusive-validities, not class-status, not monarchy, not oligarchy, not moneyarchy, not party-archy, not individual-fascism ( as opposed to party/committee-fascism, as the Communist-Party enforces, wherever it can ), not religious-nationalism, not political-nationalism, not ethnic-supremacism, NONE of the nationally-"exclusive"-"validities", will EVERY just-dissolve, just because of corruption:
Identity is more-fundamental then ego ( identity is the skeleton on-which ego is the "muscle" ), & it is the same as with any addiction: going from strong-addiction to no-addiction doesn't work, for nealy-all.
You have, instead, to go from toxic-addiction to good-addiction, like smokers going from cigarettes to ANY alternative/displacement, whether it be a different-social-context, or chewing-gum, or reading books!
Replacing monarchism with Empiricism would, for a few, work.
Replacing monarchism with addiction-to-learning would, for a few, work.
But to pretend that monarchism's going to die, rather-than take-down-its-whole-England, just because of the Epsteins among it??
That isn't the way unconscious-mind's nation-addiction works!
Pretence/idiocy.
See actuality, & see that MOST of humankind will be extinguished, before the majority of humankind are loyal to integrity rather-than ignorant-national-supremacism.
That is our-race's nature.
That is why there won't be anywhere-near 1 billion of us left, at the end of this century: addiction values itself MUCH more than the life it infects, & that includes national-exclusive-"validity"-identity addictions.
Prep, if you can: things are going to go from bad to catastrophic, when the tippingpoint gets crossed, & all non-Trump-cult people have their citizenship removed, in the elegantest 'coup" ever, in history: not-only Civil War Part2 ( the confederates only-pretended to surrender, & now have won ), but the geopolitical-dominoes which go down THE SAME DAY as when Trump finally exterminates all his opponents.. our world is going to be unrecognizable, very shortly.
& all the Democrats who are making-believing that the "checks & balances & established-rules" are going to guarantee they win if they just continue doing what they've been doing,
& all the people who hold that the English Monarchy is somehow removeable through evidence-based-rejection..
that's the same delusion: evidence falsified that paradigm, ages ago, now.
