Global News
What is global news?
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title.

Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.

Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

I'm glad it's the right decision for them. Transition regret is real though, so ignoring it isn't good. But even asking questions to educate myself gets me downvoted, so it's no wonder people don't want to ask or learn
Edit: so again, even asking questions and trying to learn gets you downvoted. No wonder you guys can't win people to your side

I guess that one percent can go fuck itself and die according to you guys
Knee replacement regret is real and much higher than transition regret. Ban knee replacements!
Nobody is saying to ban it you extremist, why don't you understand nuance? Are you so one dimensional?

So by your logic, the people who do have regret should be forced to stay in their gender, hide and not be allowed to detransiton. Making you the thing you hate, a transphobe.
