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.

If he really believes the two countries should be united, he could always decide to surrender to Ukraine and give Ukraine control over Russia. I'm sure Ukraine would do a better job of governing Russia than Putin has done.
And there it is. Finally out in the open, by the asshole-in-chief himself. "Denazification"? "Caring for the Russian minority in Ukraine"? Ha, as if. All this bullshit has ever been is to quiesce one man's megalomania.
From the deepest depths of my heart I say: Fuck you, you fucking prick, fuck your propaganda machine, and fuck your sycophantic bootlickers.
He was open about it before. He said it during the Tuck's interview
I thought it was because of Nazis. Or because of NATO. Or because of .
Not because of .
He just really needs those ship docks.
"We have a saying… where the foot of a Russian soldier steps, that is ours."
So, Putin is saying everyone should fire upon Russian forces everywhere outside Russia with no hesitation or questions asked?
By this same idiotic logic we all could do the same, put boots on Russian soil and claim it and the people are ours....lol....would be funny to turn around and give Putin a scare along these lines XD
Ukraine decided it wasn't in 1991
He looks like he's wearing his skin as a mask. Like a Roboputin.
I want to take his face... off.
I think it's a very heavy makeup line. His actual skin colour is what you see under his hair.
Taking a page out of trumps coloring book? Hmm.
Dictators can't look old and frail.
I eagerly await the day I read the headline we're all waiting for.
Honestly, there's multiple headlines we're all waiting for.
An obituary?
More like 100
I'm just wondering when is this POS is going to die.
That's one way to say denazification was bullshit
And you still have a lot of people saying that if we just traded more with Russia and didn't add countries to NATO, this wouldn't have happened.
Look at trump and his tariffs - trade is very important.
That's... Neither wrong, nor related to this article? Unless you have a crystal ball somewhere, that is?
If they are one people, then all of Russia is also Ukraine. And I happen to think Zelenskyy is a more legitimate leader.
I wonder if there's a localized zone where there is some sort of really great density of people who consider themselves Ukrainians. And I wonder if there exists some distinguishable boundary between them - culturally, societally, dare I say politically - where on one side an individual would expect to encounter a Ukrainian, versus on the other side, where they would more probably expect to encounter a non-Ukrainian?
Edit: Maybe an edge? A ridge? Something that describes a clearly defined boundary between two distinct areas that are closely related in many regards while also being clearly distinguishable based on the split that defines the division between said areas...
Edit again: I swear it's on the tip of my tongue. So frustrating. A line, maybe? That seems closer, but not quite there.
I think it's high time Finland retakes Karelia, on account of how thinly stretched Russia must be at this point.
How about no? That would be a political and economic disaster. That is, unless the Finns would somehow be ok with ethnically cleansing the russians and converting the while area to a nature reserve.
Russia is fortifying along Finland border though.
That clearly shows, which value any negotiation with Putin have: none, none at all
He wants Ukraine to, all of it. No matter what.
Even worse, negotiations have negative value since master of negotiations, the Orange himself, started his 24hrs peace plan.
From the Wikipedia article on Russia's playbook: "Foundations of Geopolitics"
Ukraine (except Western Ukraine) should be annexed by Russia because "Ukraine as a state has no geopolitical meaning, no particular cultural import or universal significance, no geographic uniqueness, no ethnic exclusiveness, its certain territorial ambitions represents an enormous danger for all of Eurasia and, without resolving the Ukrainian problem, it is in general senseless to speak about continental politics". Ukraine should not be allowed to remain independent, unless it is cordon sanitaire, which would be inadmissible according to Western political standards. As mentioned, Western Ukraine (comprising the regions of Volynia, Galicia, and Transcarpathia), considering its Catholic-majority population, are permitted to form an independent federation of Western Ukraine but should not be under Atlanticist control.
Lane says all of Russia belong to Australia.
What now poots?
Well I’m standing on the planet so the world is mine.
You leave Sumy alone, ya bastard! That's where Shurap lives!
Israel = russia Both using the same excuses to justofy occupation and genocide
Except nobody attacked russia. Just a tiny detail that, you know, breaks the whole ruzzian argument.
Ukraine didn't attack russia as a response to russia agression? Palestinian has the right to defend itself and fight occupation. Israel attacked first in 67 and kept killing people, steal their homes since 48
Like with “3-day special military operation” when Putin speaks it’s all foot.
Sure, but is it really yours if you can't control it?
