A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.
If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.
Rules
- Follow the aussie.zone rules
- We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
- News posts must include some body text explaining how the article is particularly relevant to the Australian perspective, rather than mere global news.
- Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
- Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

It's still off-topic and this is trolling, not genuine protestation as you say in your link. When you protest, have the gumption to say what you are protesting about not bring in some random info to sabotage the thread.
alright for you, I will delete, but no one else!
Well this has been an odd series of events. Also I wrote a whole book about those monkeys and had it published, out to print and it became a bestseller.
I am now being sued for all my millions for misleading a whole generation and causing leading monkey scientists to lose their minds and their jobs. Thanks a lot.
Please remove this nonsense or I will block you.
Alright for me? Anyone would have done the same. I am sure you would not like someone to sabotage/troll a serious post you put up.
You've been doing trolly actions to my posts for a while now. I am warning you now that if you do it again I will block you (or anyone else). Not happy with having to do this.
BTW, the Morgan Island monkeys live in Morgan Island, South Carolina, US not NSW. What game are you playing?
LOL so the random fact generator linked me to a source page but I didn't read it and it turns out it's just not there, lesson learned, I've updated it
I did not know that thanks.
@arbilp3@aussie.zone fact checked me and it turns out I have egg on my face, I asked for a fact and a source and then used the same thread for getting facts, and I checked out the first 3 facts and it was correct, but for some reason on the 4th and first fact I didn't double check it decided to link to a source but ... didn't quote it and instead just made up a fact ._.
bitterly disappointed in Mistral when all I asked for was an australian fact sourced from a website, really not that hard to do :(
A tad off-topic ikt?

That's nonsensical. The post is under the 'Overseas News' community, not under Australian politics for example.
Anything to do with body image and enhancement is going to have an effect on young men, especially those who are attracted to the Manosphere and so on. Please check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHldJls5y6s
We're actually having a discussion about this here:

Is there anyone in Australia who gives a shit about Pete Hegehog?
Hegseth COMPLETELY NEUTERED by Military Vets after BIZARRE Announcement
Why would I watch this? I literally do not give a shit about America
Why? Because what happens in the US sooner or later comes here and hurts us too, e.g ON and its tactics influenced by MAGA, etc.
If you thought I was not in line with the community's aim I would have been happy for you to tell me so. I don't have a problem with withdrawing a post if necessary.
Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh maybe
I know conservatives all over the world are pretty garbage and look to America but reading about the bad things America is doing got tiring for me 20 years ago after reading about the 20th school shooting they had that year
After a certain point I don't care anymore, I want to read about my countries problems not theirs
I'm not a mod, I'm just an aussie bloke that heckles America/ns 😆
I'm more like this guy but I wouldn't have the confidence to do this irl:

It's nothing personal 🙂
I do not believe you.
Twenty years ago in 2006 there weren't twenty school shootings in the US, nor in the year before nor after. You are playing with numbers and manipulating language.
Please do not respond to my posts. If you do I will block you. I won't respond to yours either.
I was being hyperbolic as that’s not the point, I’m simply not interested in discussing America or its problems anymore, I have discussed their issues enough, I don’t understand why you can’t seem to understand this
I understand you don’t like it when people disagree with you and sadly there isn’t enough posts here for us to not run into each other
tbh I’m on the verge of moving to lemmy.world anyway so if you have to block me to maintain your internal peace and calm then do it, it’s been good, I have no problems
