Fuck the sponsors of this genocide which is the United Arab Emirates (UAE) that support the so called 'Rapid Support Forces', and fuck the supporters of UAE, Germany. UAE is making shitloads of money from this bestiality as they provide the (partly German) weaponry and get paid in Sudanese blood-gold. Germany is supporting UAE for nodding to everything Israel does.

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.

I remember people trying to bring awareness about Darfur 20 years ago.
Not much has changed...
It's so frustrating that we are living through an active genocide (again) and doing absolutely nothing (again). In my youth, when there wasn't yet a 24 hour news cycle and I learned about the genocide in Rwanda as a teenager, it was my naive belief at the time that a lack of knowledge was the main reason for the general indifference in "the West". A year later the genocide in Bosnia, especially the massacre at Srebrenica, was headline news in my home country of the Netherlands and yet people seemed to collectively just shrug that off just as quickly as it happened. Now, many years later, I've become much more cynical. If you want people to care about unjustified murder you should either make sure to have your country located really really close to "the West", but even that is just of limited use to Ukraine, or make sure that the killing happens to take place at the hands of mostly Jewish people, although most Palestinians can attest to the fact that while media attention is good, action is still lacking.
How willing have you been to go and put your life on the line to stop these atrocities? If you're not willing to, why should others?
If none of the individuals in a democratic country are eager to go die to prevent the atrocities, then why would you think a democratic country would take action to force individuals to go die to try and prevent a genocide?
And in this particular case, international trade with Sudan is at like 3% of their GDP -- they don't really trade with anyone, so its not like democratic countries can be all "smarten up, or else no more [x]!"
The UN at one point in the past had a decent peace keeping force function, that'd go and assist such regions. But the UN has basically been kneecapped by both authoritarian non-democratic countries having veto powers, and by the USA overtly defunding all its programs as of late.
And the US is now participating eagerly in war crimes / crimes against humanity -- they're the 'supposed' leader of the democratic west, but they actively encourage genocides like in Israel. The people of the USA voted for it. They're 'democratically' in favour of encouraging genocides. Your opinion in the broader democratic environment, if you're American, is in the minority. And part of living in a democracy is accepting the will of the majority, which happens to be in favour of genocides.

Lately the US has been an authoritarian non-democratic country.
I was in Afghanistan, first serving with the Dutch armed forces and later working for a company that built clinics and schools. After that I worked in eastern Africa for a rural electrification programme. While parts of these efforts may have been fruitless in hindsight, I still stand by these choices.
What have you done? I feel like I was (and am) willing to work towards putting an end to atrocities, at least within my limited influence. I am willing. Therefore I expect a similar level of caring for the lives of others from others.

Americans have no power we can’t even get healthcare, family leave, affordable college, food assistance or affordable housing and they’re literally building for profit concentration camps everywhere. Our future is medical bankruptcy, homelessness, mass surveillance, “terrorist watch lists” and a core civic slave labor camps
In a world ravage by climate change no less!
And pedofiles
What is the world supposed to do? Invade?
I would even take the issue getting equal time with gaza amoung internet slacktivists. Unfortunately the propaganda value for US politics is low, so it is what it is, I guess.

There's much less direct military funding and support fueling Sudan so most people have no real outlet or mechanism for addressing it beyond support for humanitarian aid efforts and the UN.
There's not an easily identified or direct policy that can be pointed at, as if an actor were receiving billions direct military aid and support. Like, even Israel is split on which side they're supporting. Ukraine and Russia alike have supported opposition to the RSF.

Not only you but the rest of the population as well. And really, if we all cooperated together on this, these issues could be solved easily in a few years, if not months.

If we really cooperated and agreed on the goals (that's the hard one) we could fucking rebuild our society into a just and benevolent one practically overnight. I don't want to go through eugenics wars to get there or whatever other horror science fiction says we need in order to do what we can intellectually conceptualize. The short version of that is "it works cause everyone who didn't get it is dead!" and that's one hell of a failure
Is there anything the rest of the world can do to help you with your orange fascist problem?
Because it seems to be in the way of solving a lot of the other issues.
Definitely. They just don't have the balls to do it.

Don't be late on your mortgage, tuition for any children, and taxes.
And if you keep your phone longer than 6 months you're a loser.
