A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

i mean. didn't they just stop counting at 60k or what was the number that did not change for like 8 months?
Why do you think they were murdering so many journalists?
Early part of genocide
As if there was ever any doubt. They are only counting bodies they find, they can't find everyone under all the rubble, even if the israelis weren't targeting emergency personnel, and bullying everyone about the figures, denying even the death toll of the actual bodies they found, calling them the hamas health department and the like. Biden of course endorsed this denial of verifiable fact, just as he endorsed veritable blood libel claiming to have seen the evidence of 40 beheaded babies in the ghetto uprising, and never corrected himself.
They get worse every cycle respective of their party. You know they will get worse, and you know they will be worse than you think they will be worse, and they will be worse than that still.
"You North Americans are very lucky. You are fighting the most important fight of all. You get to vote for the Democrats."
That does not make any sense to me. It sounds like he is saying that the Democrats are good.
I added the part about voting for the Democrats, as a joke. He said "you are in the belly of the beast".
"we didn't know it was that bad" - dumbasses and people who clearly knew but don't care about Muslim lives.
you don't say!
