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.
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.

To Zelensky and all of Europe: feel free to ignore him—he’s now a lame duck. Just lead him along until January.
It's friday, so it's the weekly stock manipulation for the weekend.
Kinda weird to not have Zelensky in that conversation.
Probably the same sort of deal that happened last time Moscow made a deal with Nazis.
The deal is between Putin and Trump, Europe isn't invited either.
You know, because Trump and Putin think they can split up the world between them or something.
Or Europe
Molotov ribbentrop didn't include Poland either.
haha what about Europe man! there's plenty of people here!
Well, yeah, but Zelensky and Putin are the heads of the two warring nations so it makes the most sense to have both of them if nobody else.
But he claims the deal regards all of Europe too.
Only if you believe anything trump says
I don't believe a word he says, but I also know that he will do just about anything to please Putin such as cutting Zelensky out of peace talks.
Of course. He admires Putin greatly and that alone would dictate 90% of his actions and words regarding Ukraine
On behalf of Europe and Ukraine, can I say 'fuck off'. He's such a lying scumbag.
Any deal, if you believe it all, like the deal with Iran, would not benefit Europe nor Ukraine but only Putin.
.
So they're deciding who gets what, I presume?
Trump wants Sudetenland.
Trump can't even spell Sudetenland.
That's why he wants it. So he can change the name to Trumpland.
Ohhh he is hallucinating again, poor guy
Given his advancing dementia, he may well have not even spoken to Putin. He was talking about imaginary meetings right after being sworn in and he's a shitload worse off now.
Grok tells him he’s a very special boy, though.
The new blue congress better say:
"Try it." And see how far he gets when the regime can't pay anyone.
Sure, Jan.
Lame duck loser pedophile can shut the fuck up. Adults are in charge now and we can get the full Epstein files. Still think you can pretend to "lead" when your dirty deads are public?
He will lie about it until the day he dies, which is hopefully in a prison cell
lol. Doubt the democrats will do anything material, but the optimism is refreshing I suppose.
As usual, the grifter sells things he never owned.
Ha jokes on him, we are not in EU no more!
He probably just meant to say he shat his pants while dreaming of fucking children, but at that age it's so easy to slur your words.
No they're not.
Brain defaults to that after "Trump says"
