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.

Of course, you are just "following orders".
And since you didn't vote for that pedo rapist, it's not your problem to deal with, right?
I unblocked you for a response, something I don't usually waste my time on but this is so funny I had to point it out.
you have at least two alt accounts and are actively accusing and discrediting someone for the same thing. I think @ObtuseDoorFrame@lemmy.zip should at least know who they're arguing with.
as if that wasn't enough, you actually upvote all of your own comments with your alt accounts.
🤣
it's absurd, if you spent half that effort on being a normal human being nobody would be able to tell how pathetic you are.
anyway, good luck with whatever hate machine you're building. if this is the best you can do you're going to need it.
Don't worry I'm never blocking you, I have you tagged and will forever keep downvoting. Special cunts like you deserve all the special attention.
Btw, if you had me blocked you wouldn't have seen my reply. So you are not just a simple cunt either, you are a LYING cunt.
A pathetic, lying American cunt crybaby is what you are.
sounds like someone is mad they got caught 🤣
tag me however you want, won't make your actions any less pathetic.
for the record, I wouldn't have even seen it if you hadn't downvote bombed all my comments, but you piqued my interest enough to investigate your account.
I found some pretty interesting stuff. did you know that it's possible to see all the downvote bombing you've done? like seriously dude....do you not have a life? not only that, but it seems you actually wrote a script to go through and do it for you because these timestamps are almost simultaneous.
I'm impressed that you could know enough to script something out and still be ignorant enough to leave breadcrumbs behind. real amateur hour stuff.
that's not the only interesting thing either. I can see your upvotes too. it's pretty telling tbh.
Haha, based on your long rambling replies and constant edits I know which one of us is having a mental meltdown. It ain't me brother.
You say you don't care about votes, yet you spent an hour doing investigative work into my voting. 🤡
No, just good old fashioned manual labour. It takes less than a second to click on multiple down arrows while scrolling through your history. Do you have those slow fat sausage fingers?
Btw I'm only using ONE alt account and I'm not hiding anything. You really think I would use the same name on both accounts? Well you probably do, since you're an idiot.
Thank you, it's hard work with idiots like you. All tools must be employed.
But looking at your history, it seems you are very unpopular as it is anyway, so my couple of downvotes are just a drop in the sea of downvotes you are getting from everyone else. Looks like I didn't need to waste my time after all.
I think I am missing the point here, why is this being shown as some sort of issue?
