A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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.

They are NOT deportees. They are not being deported.
They're being RENDITIONED.
Deported people are sent back to their own countries where they likely have resources or the ability to live and function.
Renditioning is intentionally putting people in places where they have no ability to communicate or to live. It's like a death sentence for at least many of them.
I’m going to disagree with you with two arguments: first, authority from Merriam Webster
Deport transitive verb 1 [Latin deportare] a : to send (a foreign-born noncitizen) out of the country by legal order : to subject to deportation b : to remove (someone or something) : DISPLACE
2 : to behave or comport (oneself) especially in accord with a code
Second argument is historical. During WWII, People were deported to concentration camps. They for sure didn’t call the camps their home.
Sick. Who does this help?
I don't know who even upvoted you for this pointless bullshit
That's it? That's like an upper middle class boomer's retirement fund. I presume much of the compensation is going to be in diplomatic concessions.
The article states that:
Eswatini agreed to take 160 deportees in exchange for $5.1m to “build its border and migration management capacity”.
By my account, that amounts to $31.875 per deportee.
Regardless of the sums involved, the United States are outsourcing their human rights abuses and bribing other countries to turn a blind eye by making them complicit. Eswatini and all the other countries that partake in “migration offshoring” schemes, like El Salvador, Albania and Rwanda, will likely not call out the United States, the United Kingdom or the European Union for their criminal treatment of people who, by and large, desire to work and live in peace, because they would risk a source of income and diplomatic cover.
