A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Trumps plan is disruption, chaos and damage.
Or just the largest scale market manipulation ever and he bought his self made dip. Then lift tarrifs again. Profit.
Though more likely hes either a saboteur or just utterly incompetent.
~~Trumps~~ Putin's plan is disruption, chaos and damage
The plan of those pulling Trump's strings is disruption, chaos, and damage.
Trump's plan is to wear the big boy pants and prove to everyone he's the biggest of boys.
Chaos is a ladder
Creating a Bear market to use like his father used?
Melon is trying to protect Tesla but the fun part is it's too late.
Please don't insult delicious Melons like that.
What did Rockmelon or tasty Honey Dew Melon do to be compared to 'ol musky?
You can't spell melon without Elon, as the saying goes.
:(
Petition to change the fruit descriptor 'Melon' to 'Melo' - the 'n' is wrong anyway since the root latin is 'Melopepo'
Rockmelo
Watermelo
Honey Dew Melo, etc.
That would quickly devolve into a lazy "Melah"
Watamelah
Potayto Potatah
Tomayto Tomahta
Watermellow Watermelah
Let's Call The Whole Thing Off.
Not just Tesla, spaceX and starlink too. EU govs are looking for alternatives
Protect something he repeatedly smashed with his own nazi stunts. Good luck to him.
Melon Husk now realise he doesn't always get to hold the controller.
It's a sign of greed. Musk wants to sell his Teslas and doesn't care about stepping all over Trump's "plans" for it.
I can't wait to see his reaction to that.
Two narcissists in the same room. They're already stepping on each other.
Elmo: How about 0 tariffs? Habeck:
Elon is baby hitler.
Mustash man was good at PoE tho /s
Fear and Loathing in Global Politics
As we used to sing about South Africa We gotta keep the pressure on. We gotta keep the pressure on.
My god, don't call someone with a fragile ego "weak and afraid" if you want to negotiate with them ffs. Make them think they're doing the right thing!
Believe it or not, some people think that the press’s job is to tell the truth about what’s going on, and people can deal with it however they deal with it.
This is commonly forgotten anymore.
I'm not saying the press shouldn't do their job, which is exactly what you say it is. That part I agree with. But Germany's economy minister is the one I was addressing.
Someone who uses their own child as a human shield is "weak and afraid".
I'm not debating that. He is indeed.
I see it as a power move from Germany indirectly saying: that elon should deal with backing trump.
I mean sure, if you're not interested in making deals, let's go all out on calling people out. Then I don't have any issue. 💪
The minister is also a Conservative MAGA fan. This is the CDP.
The far right in SA/NZ/Australia are pro-EU. That's why they were so confused about Brexit.
Of course they would be pro-Europe, how could they be anything else ?
The minister is also a Conservative MAGA fan
Who now? Robert Habeck?
