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.

I started to reply to you, but after reading your reply a few times, I've realised that you're not worth it
When you said "pull yourself up by the bootstraps", you showed that you don't actually understand anything
Most of all, if you had actually understood my position, you would know that I don't hate all Americans. I'm marrying one soon, in fact.
I think that the American people are victims, but too many of you are victims by choice, and the real victims of the regime have been fucked from the start.
Native Americans
The descendents of people brought there as slaves
But there are plenty of dumb fuck white people who will gladly see everyone get hurt, just as long as they are told that they are better, not because they do anything differently, but just because they hate the idea of anyone who doesn't look like them being their equal
I recognise that there are good people in the US
But there's a disproportionate number of people who are cruel and hateful
We all know that your education system has been gutted.
We know that the system is designed to pit people against each other and keep you all desperate.
What we don't understand is the hate, and the way you will shit on each other to try to get ahead in a system that has been engineered specifically to make sure that you stay right where you are
And so many of you are stupid enough to think that somehow, you will be different, if only you can shit on everyone else hard enough
This might not be you, but it's too many of you.
"I started to reply to you, but after reading your reply a few times, I've realized you're not worth it"

Lol
My thoughts exactly. Not sure where he finds the time. I’m too busy being shafted by this government working my 60 hour work weeks to get back to this. A lot of assumptions from this ass hole. Thinks his country is immune to political sabotage. WOW is me because he thinks I didn’t outright lose friends over the hate this admin and past admins have been spewing.
I feel sympathy really for every one stupid out there. Sometimes they don’t know how to remove the inshitification clogging their arteries and ears. Suffering is suffering regardless of where or whom is doing it, and I don’t stand in support of atrocities in the present nor in the past.
