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.

Foucault’s boomerang, AKA the colonial boomerang. Nations that are not willing to call out Israel’s genocide are planning to use tactics and technologies tested in Gaza and the West Bank at home.
That's been the goal for a long time
Annexing Cairo is wild
And a tiny little chunk of overlap into Iran because why the fuck not I guess
Just one more buffer zone and we'll be safe bro. Come on bro just one more annexation then we'll be done bro. It's just one more invasion and then we'll be done with genocide, bro, I promise bro, just one more.
Remember that Donald and his cronies could stop all of this with one phone call to Israel. The problem is that Israel almost certainly has proof he's a pedophile.
They can't make war without American WMD shipments.
Proof he's a pedophile is already released. Whole lot of good that did. How many people have been arrested over the crimes described in those files? Do you expect that number to change?
They can’t make war without American ~~WMD shipments~~ money.
It's so simple yet the world's public figures always seem to stop short of realizing that.
They can’t make war without American WMD shipments.
They definitely would try, even if it meant eventually bankrupting themselves.
So we must stop Israel.
With all our might yes. If it can be said we are revisiting 1930esque fascism, they are one of the Axis nations. About to commit literal lebensraum war.
Israel to the Third Reich: When I left you I was but the learner, now I am the Master.
He's not wrong
