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. 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 10/19
-
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.

Isreal is literally committing genocide on a larger scale than Hamas could ever dream of.
Your argument is that Isreal is morally permitted to inflict actual genocide in response to a perceived threat of genocide?
You're either oblivious to reality or living in denial, and most certainly engaging in emotional reasoning; not logic.
The word "literally" has lost all meaning lol
So you deny Isreal's mass murder of innocent Palestinians? Or do you just not understand the meaning of the words "literally" and "genocide"?
This, but you.
Also your use of "murder" is inappropriate in this context.
Nice "no u" response, hahahaha.
Alright, you're either a troll or the lowest common denominator, and not worth wasting my time either way.
Go ahead and get the last word in so you can tell yourself you "won" an argument, or whatever other self-deluded rationalizations you like to commit. I don't feed trolls, so I'm not gonna bite.
He makes several good points and your basically just vomitting buzzwords and copypasta.
Hahahahaha I bet you don't even see the irony and hypocrisy of your claim here.
He made a bunch of baseless claims, emotional reasoning, logical fallacies, ad hominem, and "no u" as his strongest point.
This is like below average middle school level debate. If you're reading his comments and thinking he's making strong logical arguments, then I am honestly sad for both of you.
No I'm just fully literate.
I don't care about how you feel about our "discussion"
Proceeds to answer all questions with variations of “no u”.
Stupid comments get half-assed responses.

Yeah leftists are hella dumb.
Lol
Leftist rag, Newsweek.
Something tells me you just actually don't mind the idea of genocide that much.
It's citing a specific professor, and he didn't write the article in Newsweek, he wrote it in a leftist column
Read your own article.
Uh huh.
And Newsweek just repeated it blindly because they loveeeeee giving dirty commies free press for their unfounded statements.
Newsweek reported news, which is that a person I think has some dumb and misguided opinions wrote an article. It's news because of his profession
Seriously, read your own article.
Lul, okay bro. He just quoted the UN definition of genocide verbatim.
Sorry, but I'm just not dumb enough to believe you're dumb enough to actually believe what you're saying.
Try Truth Social? More folks in your target demo there.
Nah I don't speak to conservatives. I just live in reality and can read.
You didn't even read your own article.
