What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Oh boy. A lot of religious countries are suddenly going to be called apartheid states.

As they should. Everyone is welcome to their religious beliefs, but they shouldn't push them on other people, let alone the government.

I'll have to read the rest later, but good riddance, bout time people finally recognize what people do to their own bodies is a human fucking right. Hopefully down the road this human right becomes less controversial and I can finally stop hearing the bullshit "facts" (When it literally isn't, is taken out of context, disingenuous and in bad faith) that the homo/transphobes pull out of their asses.
