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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

And I hope everybody in Australia blames the right people for this. Yes, this is a very fucking stupid decision by a very fucking stupid president of the United States, but it's all those red hat wearing motherfuckers in the United States that put him in power. In this particular instance, general Americans are the fucking idiots that are responsible for this shit.
Also the "red hat" motherfuckers in australia that kept australia so dependant on fossil fuels when it has some of the best natural resources for wind and solar power.
Indeed and ONP just won 4 seats in South Aus,
They could've voted Green who have been pushing for dental in medicare, taxing billionaires, better public transport and renewable but instead they vote ONP, led by an another illiterate orange moron, flown around by a billionaire who is oft seen visiting Mar-a-Lago.
We should be asking wtf is wrong with Australian voters.
Labor won what, 33? More? Most of the one nation votes are from the liberals anyway who recently utterly collapsed.
And gas.
Natural gas is a fossil fuel
(We steal the gas from our neighbours)
And uranium
Their fossil power is mostly coal though, so not really affected by this.
I was mostly referring to the lack of transport electrification.
thanks, turnballs.
Let's also add that Netanyahu is also just as, if not more responsible as well.
Pinky and The Brain of geopolitics right there.
"Bibi, what are we going to do this year?"
"Same as we do every year, Trumpy. Try to take over the world!!"
"Narf!"
Except neither is a genius and both are insane.
That works for the song beautifully. Well done.
Indeed. Fuck that cunt as well.
Ghislane probably made tapes of him too. Bibi is a face.
Everything you said is true, but I hope more people are seeing the US as the canary we are in the realm of right wing politics. The cancer is spreading and getting more control around the world. Everyone should look at how the US has fallen under the Trump regime and what not to do. That's not to say that the US was doing great things outside of Trump, but this is certainly worse for the citizens of the US and the cascading effects are clearly having a negative effect on much of the rest of the world.
Personally I think the canary was Britain with Brexit, but I grant you that unless one has lived there for a while it's hard to really understand the politics of it all since due to their cultural favored image style, the Fascists in England are sleazy posh types kniffing others in the back rather than loud, obnoxious types punching others in the gut.
As I see it, America's Iran is the violent and loud country version of Britain's Brexit.
And plenty in my country would still vote for him a 4th time.
Like all western societies, australians have their own flavor of red hats and a rich variety of home grown fascists. They love networking internationally (and then call us globalists). Blame and shame them.
That has nothing to do with being a western society. I'm pretty sure that China, India and Somalia have it too. Maybe named differently, and with Chinese Supremacist instead of White Supremacist groups, but pretty similar. It's just something that exists in each human society. It's called Chauvinism btw.
And we can’t forget blaming Albanese for his pandering to Trump every step of the way. Even today the spineless coward still won’t blame America for this.
Show me any pandering. It will no doubt surprise you to discover that international relations is a slow and careful game. I think Albo has done an excellent job keeping us out of the whirlpool of shit that Trump has caused.
Are you kidding? Tell me who has been our diplomat to the United States since albo was elected, and since trump was. How they haven't been fired and have not bent over for trump like so many others.
This is perhaps the silliest thing I've seen posted to reddit, it's actually frustrating lol
I voted for kevin07 and he's done nothing but shit on trump Chad style.
Get outta here lmao
Wait, am I on reddit and I don’t realize it?
Wait, is this some kind of response to a post?
According the the lastest polls over 110 million Americans still think Trump is great and doing the right things.
I would argue that the people on the left who were infighting and telling others not to coconut vote, lead to an orange in power.
Anyone on the left saying that 'both sides are the same' or that biden was 'genocidal' can now enjoy the alternative - which is worse.
Well done you did it. You blew it up. You maniac leftists are unanimous your hate for the left and the right welcomes your hatred.
Those crazy leftists, why couldn’t they just be okay with dead Palestinian children. It’s the leftists fault!
Cool so now trumps in power and you get dead Iranian children.
