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.

Idk what to tell you. Maybe you already had the threads loaded. Maybe my client needed an extra minute to update right there. I went back to my comment immediately after to add the edit and edit edit.
Do you want me to be more sketch next time and not even try to add that I edited my comment. Or maybe next tiem I'll add timestamps of when I edit every single word or sentence. But you're taking this way too far.
My original common, which minimally changed to clarify my messups, didn't have anything to do with surgery's, talked about my wanting a bigger dick, and stated people should be able tonexpress how they feel just no life altering drugs.
Even what I added after doesn't change what inworte. Even though I added them immediately
I do know what to tell you.
You wrote a comment, I read it, replied it to it, and whilst I was replying to it, you started editing it, then I posted my comment and then you posted your edit.
Nothing weird about it. And still, you don't say you suffered from moobs, do you? So how is me bringing that up me calling you fat just for pointing out that more cis males have gender affirming care than trans people, statistically? You were wrong to say I was calling you fat, because I wasn't. But you can't say "I was mistaken in thinking you called me fat."
"It didn't say anything about surgeries"
You might as well have been talking about pasta in general and then start crying when I bring up spaghetti, saying "I was talking about pasta, it has nothing to do with spaghetti!" One is a subcategory of the other. "Gender affirming care" includes within it gender affirming surgeries.
And how exactly would you go about getting a bigger dick without a surgery, pray tell?
Mod?
How far in life do you think you'll get if you can't swallow your pride enough to say "I'm sorry, I made a mistake" , online, to a stranger.
In any sort of business setting you're gonna have to do that a lot.
I never called you fat. You said I did. You were wrong. I'd like an apology.
You were talking about gender affirming care, part of which is gender affirming surgeries, which is why I informed you of the fact that most of those are for cis males. I prefaced it with "FYI". As in, I was informing you of a thing that's related, not cooking up personal insults.
And again, I don't know how you imagine one could get a bigger penis if not surgically? You haven't wasted your moneys on those advertisemts in emails promising "inches in weeks"? I don't think you should. They're not too trustworthy as companies, I've heard.
Yeah I'm the offensive one for calling you out for saying I'm trying to insult you and then asking for an apology because I showed I didn't, and now you're spamming "fucking fuck fuck fuck fucking fuck you you fucking fuck".
Okay I'll knock down my king and you can tell your friends you won this internet debate.
