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.

he'd have to literally kill all of them to "lose" them, and even that might not do it... Lindsay Graham followed Trump into his grave, and his ghoul of a sister (which I'm convinced is just a Lindsay Graham lich) popped right up to take his place and keep following him!
they will literally follow him off this (or any) cliff
It's a political mania, and manias always end in collapse. Unfortunately, we're going to witness the collapse of the United States, which will have massive effects on the rest of the world, most likely via economic upheaval and war.
the US is far too big and powerful to collapse....
it can only metastasize.. and it's really doing that already
So was the Roman Empire until it did
Yeah, well, let me know when the Canadians are gonna come over the seventh hill…
(((MUCH DOUBT)))
Screaming “I’m sorry“ and gifting us all giant jugs of maple syrup
Oh, unless I forget, please burn down the atrocity that Trump has made of the White House. Seriously, you’ll be doing this all the fucking favor.
No, the Canadians are gonna keep to themselves with their resources and universal healthcare. Then they’re gonna watch us collapse from afar.
We had our chance to revolt, but we decided to watch Netflix and Hulu instead. The greatest explosion of potential that collapsed into the depths of everyone’s disappointment. No, I realized than by ourselves. Of course, that’s why heroin is now very legal here and freely distributed by the government.
Hey Siri, what a shame that we collectively decided that we were “above” that. We could’ve fun and gotten our country back but no no no we were “above” all of the precise level of violence who was required to reclaim our freedom. No, no no, we’re too good for that now. Better off to be slaves than to engage in a violence!.
Look if Canada wants to claim the northern bits of the US after the collapse, I'm all for it. I'm there, I'm ready to go.
The collapse won’t be nearly as sudden as that. Heck, a dying America may even get the dumb idea of annexing Canada (which they’d likely be able to do), but with their international prestige done, their economy collapsing from debt, they’d be fully reduced to little more than a regional power
Yeah, houses of cards famously never collapse
I was alluding to more of a slow crumble
Like a flan in a cupboard
