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.

No one is angry enough.
Oh, i am and some others too, but it would take someone with an army to fucking bomb Israel back to the stone age to stop those madmen. I never thought i would say that, but if Israel vanished in a giant nuclear fireball, it would be a net positive for the world at this point.
Israel disappearing would probably be a big step towards peace in the Middle East, given their tendency to start shit with their neighbors.
I used to think "dude, why does everyone on the middle east seem to hate Israel"
Then I got a minor in history
Then I tried using it. It's embarrassing how many years there were between the two. Please don't ask
I told every politician that represents my address taking AIPAC money is a nonstarter for my vote a long time ago. They didn't give a fuck. Being angry enough has nothing to do with it, they won't / don't care until supporting isn't real starts losing them money. And this blue no matter who shit some people love to throw around explicitly helps further genocide. Never vote AIPAC, no matter who.
i'm compartmentalized dude.
also if you're the corbin i know, NEPHEW GET OFF THE NSFWS YOU ARE TOO YOUNG wait at least 7 years. crab jesus kid what happened to you
An 11 year old Corbin… High School Musical fan parents spotted.
is that where my idiot brother got the name? i always thought it was after Jeremy Corbyn.
Corbin Dallas is from The Fifth Element. An amazing scifi movie from the late 1900s
I’d probably just want to keep believing that vs HSM, lol.
i mean, i had a flatmate in college who would turn on the disney channel and watch high school musical every day. i told him if he was going to do that, at least take the TV (it was a big ol' 13 incher. also mine.) back to his room because i didn't want to watch it more than once a week. all i managed to absorb was that vanessa hudgens exists.
Daddy?
i said nephew. i may be a grampa but i ain't got no kids.
That u know of.. gimme yo dna
uh, what were your parents doing in 2005 that's the only year i don't have accounted for. my asshole was steering the ship though so i don't think i'd be doing much breeding or interacting with people in a positive manner.
amnesia sucks dude
I had my second kid and was full speed ahead into my second divorce.
Amnesia sounds awful, sorry bruh
I was wondering why some of my friends were not reacting, then I remembered most of them are on antidepressants. I'm starting to think too many antidepressants users out there, and many of them probably take them because they can't deal with the state of the world.
MAJOR DISCLAIMER THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE THIS IS MY OWN EXPERIENCE
There's that, and there are a lot of chemical imbalances that are covered up by SSRIs. I have a MTHFR (MoTHerFuckeR gene yes the capitalization is important) (dear gods I've typed that phrase so many times my autocarrot knows it) mutation, so I cannot methylize folate, so if I do not eat methylated folate (as a pill supplement), it is bad. SSRIs mask that "bad". If I take methylated folate at the right dose I am myself. If I SSRI it up, I'm a zombie. Took years to figure everything out and the right balance, and I'm still learning shit about my other defects. But it took a lot of work to get to the place where I could get off the SSRIs, and there were more than a few failed (md approved) attempts.
