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.

The Art of the Congeal
Well, it’s Monday, so now we collapse the futures market outcomes and collect gains for the insiders.
On Friday they’ll have a deal again, the after hours markets will go up, they’ll capitalize, then on Monday we’ll be back to this.
it does seem to be about once a week.
That's exactly the goal. This regime is extracting as much wealth as possible before they're removed.
Then they’ll flee to Argentina. Peter Thiel is all ready moving there as we speak.
I think you're overestimating this regime.
Trump's and His Pack of Bastards might be dumb as a bag of wet lint in general, but when they're working out ways to steal money, I begrudgingly content they're geniuses.
I think you're underestimating them. Sure it's one of the least competent administrations in the history of the country, but there are plenty of very evil and very competent people in the regime pulling the strings and setting the long term goals and strategies. Look at Bannon for example. He's very cunning and evil.

That's the part I specifically don't believe. Even the people like Bannon who have certain impressive skills, are ultimately short term thinkers that are liable to miscalculation due to arrogance. At the end of the day, they know not to speak out against any dumb move Trump wants to pull, as he has consistently purged such people and replaced them with insane yes-men.
Trump has never been puppeted, only manipulated and tricked by people appealing to his ego. He is uniquely adept at uniting fascist foot soldiers and oligarchic interests, but he has never been the billionaires' perfect option. They tried to replace him before both the 2016 and 2024 elections, specifically because he isn't their lapdog.
We seem to have different definitions of puppetry then, based on your reply to the other person.
Also, the long term evil strategists are people like Kevin Roberts, Peter Thiel, Russ Vought (huge one for dismantling the federal government), Clarence Thomas, Mitch McConnell (more traditional but very long history). These are people who have worked for decades to get to this point.
He he is being puppeted, just not by oligarchs, but by putin and Israel, who have kompromat on him.
Appealing to his ego and earning his admiration isn't puppetry, but manipulation. Puppetry is when someone is forced to do another's bidding against their will. Trump simps for daddy Putin and brother Netanyahu voluntarily, not because they force him.
And Iran too.
Art of the steal.
I’m surprised “peace” is even on the wheel.
Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies.
-Rule of acquisition #76
just for few days, to sell the shares back to the market
They'll announce peace, that doesn't mean anyone will actually stop shooting.
The wheel is also fixed .... there's a giant lead weight on the opposite side of 'peace', which means it will never land there
Jfc, what did dumbfuck do now?
The USA has been bombing Iran regularly over the past week. Iran has retaliated by bombing a US base in Kuwait. Since it's obvious that the US thinks it can keep bombing on a slow-burn schedule, Iran is escalating.
Meanwhile, Israel has been bombing world heritage sites in Tyre and moving across the Litani river.
Also, from Iran's perspective, now isn't a bad time to finally block Bab el-Mandeb. The United States can't really withdraw that much more from their SPRs, so the effect will be maximized. Meanwhile Europe is growing more hawkish on Russia, so upping the ante is the right move.
Of course, this will cause incredible suffering in Asia with trickle-down effects hitting the poor of the world the hardest.
And now Trump is trying to apply last minute pressure after fucking around and finding out. People underestimate just how little strategy is involved in the US approach.
Yeah, he's reeling. He wants to do a 1-2 day massive bombing campaign, declare victory, and then leave. The problem is Iran says they will make the Gulf uninhabitable if he does that, and the grown-ups know that Iran isn't bluffing.
Broke the ceasefire again and, more importantly, is refusing any deal which doesn't involve Iran losing all control of the strait and giving up its nuclear materials (neither of which are ever going to happen).
Good thing I filled up during the dip
Same thing all the insider traders are thinking
