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.

Zionists are Nazis.
Exactly. Zionists believe they're entitled to Israel just like Nazis believe "Aryans" were entitled to the Rhineland.
Supporting either should be grounds for imprisonment.
As a Jew with Zionist family in Israel and in the States, related to Holocaust survivors and victims, and student of other Holocaust survivors, I can confirm that you're correct.
During the early days of the Palestinian genocide, I overheard the following conversation between two old men at my mom's synagogue:
These men also cry that we're victims of the most violence and that our tactics are just to prevent another Holocaust. But I thought "tHeRe has beEn a LoT oF heALiNG."
Fuck that. Hitler was not "onto" anything. Neither are the current Zionists "onto" anything.
All this fascism and racism needs to get exterminated.
You basically lose any moral high ground by calling anyone Hitler/Nazi.
Such a shit comparison. If Nazis were as benign as Zionists there wouldn't have been a world war 2. No one would have given a fuck.
If you want to criticize effectively, be more precise.
Word
Okay: precisely, Zionist dogma is equivalent to Nazi dogma where Zionist Jews are the privileged in-group. And what the Israeli entity is doing to Palestinians is equivalent in intent and practice to what the Nazis did to Jews.
If I made any other comparison, I would be losing precision, because the comparison is so precise!
You clearly don't know what Zionism is or wrongly conflate the term with the current Israeli politics about Gaza.
... says the 5 day old obvious shitposting account.
Might as well have just gone with 'LogicalFallacyIdentifier' or 'IAmMoreCredibleThanYou'.
How naive do you have to be to think openly killing people under the sun is the only kind of war there is?
Jews longing for national liberation are Nazis?
Nah fuck right off with that opinion, two and a half fucking years into the Gaza genocide, you fucking for real? Israel is just "Jews longing for national liberation"? Shut the fuck up Zionist
If you think this predicament started two and a half years ago, then you're a fucking idiot.
Correct. Zionists were fascist trash since the inception of the Zionist movement.
I accept that a Jew who wishes for a nation-state for Jews, based on civic nationalism, inclusive for people of different religions and ethnicities, and showing the due respect for the natives and their property and land rights, isn't far right.
But for the most part, Israelis are far-right now.
How can it be "for Jews" but also be inclusive of non-Jews? That's the whole problem.
Unless you mean for Jews in that it's for everyone who wants to live there and participate in such a society. But that's not what they typically mean when they say "for Jews".
Wait would that mean everyone can be Jews? Is the criteria for this cutting off the skin on the tip of my dick? Kinda like a pledge?
lol I meant like for Jews only insofar as it's for everyone, and it's for Jews because they are a subset of everyone. But that's a stretch so I see why you were confused.
A fifth of Israelis are Palestinian.
Jews collectively decide to go to the same region, and in doing so give it a significant Jewish cultural character.
And I don't have any problem with that. The issue is when they decide to enhance that distinctly Jewish character by expelling or killing everyone who is different from them. That's called fascism.
"Anarchist without adjectives" more like """anarchist""" without principles
That is just the new account of a banned genocide denier who conflicts zionists with jews. A nationalistic anarchist. LOL.

I have heard of christian anarchists, but nationalistic anarchist is new.
Nationalist anarchist.
Oh dear lord...
Well, that is a good joke, I guess, maybe.
Also minor nitpick, I think you mean conflate, not conflict... since it is apparently paramount that we all must be extremely precise and no one is capable of inuiting a meaning from slightly innacurate phrasing.
True, thanks, conflate is what I meant.
Yeah I remember that asshole. I remember yelling at them a couple days before they got banned too 😆
Oh look, a Nazi.
Not literally nazis in the "claim the ww2 german nazi party as indicative of their personal identity" sense, but in the way that "Nazi" gets used in modern english as a synonym for "fascist". And arguably that user has a point; trying to build a state based on a favored identity at the expense of another group who lives on that land, re-framing marginalization and conflict with that group as self defense, is one of the hallmarks of fascism. If it were just "national liberation", then who would they be seeking liberation from? Israel isnt under foreign occupation or some kind of vassalage, the closest thing to that you could even argue for is that they have some dependence on the US for military support, and beyond that relationship not being at the level of the US controlling Israel, the US isnt who zionists are usually fighting against anyway. If this were still the era of the roman empire or something, that kind of line might make some sense, but under the current state of affairs, it does not.
Look up the Lehi terrorist organization, which was folded into the IDF. They literally tried to join WW2 on the side of the Nazis, but you know, Nazis.
Anyway, their philosophical wing adopted, and started pushing, Nazi race science with the races switched around. This is where the major push of people claiming "god's chosen people" to justify their evil comes from.
Also, the second leader of Lehi was eventually elected to Prime Minister, and was even more of an evil bastard by that point. He also was Netanyahu's political mentor.
Self proclaimed “God’s chosen people.” Has a ring to it. Kinda like the reason Lucifer fell from heaven.
