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.

I'm stopping Genocide in the most effective way possible, by tanking public support for it.
It's not November yet I'm not sure why you are already defending Joe Biden while he is still perfectly able to stop committing Genocide which would stop him from losing votes to people who oppose Genocide.
Or are you hoping he keeps this Genocide going until November?
Who is this magical candidate who promises to run roughshod over 80+ years of US foreign policy and change the minds of almost every single Congresscritter (and their financial backers)?
spoiler
Absolutely fucking nobody, you're just a GOP shillYou're the only here helping Trump by telling Biden not to stop Genocide.
Ah yes, a complete non-answer. Gotcha, you're dismissed.
Also, good job misrepresenting everything I said. When did I tell him not to stop? I'm just telling your idealist college kid brain that he's simply not going to, whether we like it or not. Nobody is, and nobody realistically can except Bibi. Maybe redirect your efforts where they might actually count, toward Israeli citizens themselves, rather than lashing out where it absolutely will not matter. Assuming you actually give a fuck about Palestinians and are not simply a GOP shill, of course.
You're the only one misrepresenting anything pretending that Biden can win while enabling Genocide.
That is not going to happen. Pretending it will only delays Biden from doing anything and helps Trump.
Lol, okay. Live in your fantasy world. He can win if people like you stop encouraging apathy. But no US president will ever do what you want. You might get one that further enables Israel, though.
We will stop encouraging apathy when Biden stops committing Genocide.
For both of us let's hope that happens soon.
Pray tell, how will encouraging apathy accomplish your goals?
By dropping poll numbers so hard the the Biden campaign realizes that they cannot continue ignoring it. This will make them fix it as fast as possible, and then they can actually campaign without having lefties rally against Biden instead of Trump.
Pray tell how do you think ignoring the issue and telling people to just lesser evil it until November will turn out? I believe what you are saying it actually the most apathetic thing possible.
Yeah you're certainly stopping genocide alright. Trump has vowed to stop this war, right? Because he totally fucking could anyhow!
Also no one is defending Biden you liar.
What Joe Biden is doing right now is something I would have only expected from Trump. And the defense of it is something I would have only expected from Republicans.
You're not voting for Joe Biden either while he's still supporting Genocide right?
I'm voting strictly for Joe Biden without question because I'm not a fraud who wants Trump as a dictator in office.
This in no way condones what ISRAEL is doing because I'm not willing to lie my ass off and act like Trump or anyone else would be any better at all.
Good luck with your lie campaign though.
If the Genocide stops more power to you. Fully agree.
If the Genocide will still be ongoing then you are in fact condoning israel. Empty words mean nothing.
You are handing the reigns to trump who we all know will be way worse.
Thereby making it obvious that you know you're a liar and don't give a fuck about any Palestinian. You're specifically supporting the opposite of what you're obsessively claiming to want.
Your Lemmy profile is truly fucked. Guessing it's one of several accounts
This guys entire comment history is anti-Biden propaganda. And yet they still think no one is aware of what they’re doing.
Exactly. These turds seem to forget that viewing their profile is a thing
Do quote the part the "weird part of my profile". Is it where I'm copy pasting the same unoriginal But Trump statement only one of us is doing that
Nah you're right, posting every hour for weeks about Biden being solely responsible for Israel's actions is a very normal and healthy thing to do, and is not compulsive lying in the least
Biden is solely responsibly for it and can solely stop it. Why are you pretending that's false?
It's sad that all your arguments condense to "fake news".
That's the thing about "Israel equals Biden". it's too stupid to argue with, and contrary to your belief, that's not a point in your favor.
Israel's Genocide is not possible without Biden surely you're not denying that
Of fucking course it is. There probably has never been one genocide in history that the perpetrator gave up because a check didn't clear. Kind of moronic to expect anyone to believe this lie.
Except the previous three times israel instantly stopped when the US threatened israel they would withold weapons or drop their loan guarantees.
Give it up bro he's gotta be trolling
I wish, but a lot of these people have just been consuming too much propaganda for a long time and genuinely believe the insanity they are saying.
~ you.
Yes, Biden is the one doing it. Get it through your head.
You cannot fathom someone politically left of you
You cannot fathom basic arithmetic
Ah yes, political candidates are incapable of changing their views to better represent the desires of the people. Obviously the logical conclusion of criticizing Biden is that Trump wins and not that he changes his politics to be more electable to a clear majority the US population.
Lmao
It's been going on before any of us were born, and none of us is directly connected to these events historically, and even those that were have conflicting stories.
Maybe this is all just geopolitical theatre, and we're all amplifying the propaganda. Puppets who will never meet those who pull the strings.
We can stop the Genocide with a choice for Biden to stop Genocide or lose the election. If he still chooses Genocide then we need to put on an entirely different tinfoil hat.
Trump won't bend and neither will his base but the Democrats cannot ignore the progressive who will not be complicit in Genocide.
Maybe the people you vote for are some of the main cast. 🤔
Because all of this noise that you're adding to isn't on a cooldown timer. People will carry their beliefs with them to November.
