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.

Bro, I have ban this community. It's going to get spammed by goddamn Musk, Trump and other US news.
Don't worry, the US will affect your personal life too outside the news 😊
You overestimate the impact the US has on an average Joe outside of it. Most people outside the US don't give two shits about your president. The world doesn't revolve around you.
Given the noise Musk has been making surrounding the political landscape in Germany, the United Kingdom, and lately Canada, it stands to reason that the richest person on the planet is actively trying to make the world revolve around him.
Sentiment similar to yours was undoubtedly stated a century ago throughout Europe; 'You overestimate the impact Germany has on the citizenry outside of it.' Look where that attitude got the world, and here you are saying the same thing.
Trying to doesn't mean succeeding. People don't give two fs about what happens in the US. And they won't suddenly start caring when you throw in a few "they're nazis!" in there.
You're right, better to ignore the problem until it's too late to do anything.
Nope, better to not care about issues in a country that's an ocean away from you and has absolutely no bearing on your life. Again, the world doesn't revolve around the US.
Again, you repeat the same words as the Americans did some hundred years ago when Hitler was rising to power.
I hope for the sake of your neighbours that you are correct and that the Nazism of the west does not bleed beyond the borders of the United States.
Do check in four years down the line. Best of luck.
Yeah climate change is going to wreck havoc everywhere.
Regardless of whether the US decides to uphold climate policies or not, the world is fucked. Climate change efforts must be global. The US has no bearing on it.
Drill baby drill. And then, Burn baby Burn and Drown baby Drown. Fuck Trump.
So let me get this straight. He was sat there doing executive orders in the middle of an arena or whatever.
Why is everything he does so….public
He’s an influencer. That’s what he does
He’s a narcissist. This is what he lives for. It’s pathetic.
Just trying to get all the work out of the way so he can play golf for the next 4 years.
Were we meeting the goals anyway?
I don't think anybody was.
Hum... Does your link state somewhere that any country kept up with their promises? Because I can't find it.
Overall, it says this:
As of 31 March 2020, 186 parties (185 countries plus the European Union) had communicated their first NDCs to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat. A report by the UN stated in 2020 that: "the world is way off track in meeting this target at the current level of nationally determined contributions."[26]
What means that the world at large is well behind the targets. But all country specific data I've found is of countries behind the target.
Look at the first picture. Green = on track.
Oh, so there exist some countries.
It's too bad those are all not the problem, though. (And Russia exports fuels instead of burning them, so the measurement doesn't count them.) But yes, I was wrong.
Correct.
What's your point? Do you want us to just give up and burn everything?
Maybe the heat'll end the middle east crisis once and for all. He can take credit for that, I guess.
