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 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.

Musk also threatened changes to X’s Community Notes after fact-checkers refuted his claims.
The only part of this that surprises me is that it didn't happen sooner. Musk is so thin-skinned that he's indistinguishable from an anatomical model of a human.
What drugs is that jackass on? Gotta be some wild shit with all the insane crap he spouts anymore
Ketamine.
Kremlinmine
Remember how everyone applauded him for giving starlink to Ukraine? Yeah...
I do not understand why Ukraine, with Poland, continue to use Starlink. WTF, Leon is in bed with the fucking neo-Nazis and Russians.
No alternatives. And I'm not only talking about the military - some schools, kindergartners and other institutions use them in the places, where it would be very hard/impossible to use regular wired network.
This all is not going to end well for Elon Musk.
Best case scenario this will not end well for Elon. Worst case scenario this will not end well for the world and we'll all die in nuclear war or something.
So, how are Tesla sales today?
Better than feeding off the dead bodies of children, like Republicans do.
and falsely claimed he is “despised” by Ukrainians, echoing Donald Trump’s rhetoric.
Falsely? Oh, he meant Zelensky, not himself. Nvm.
Somebody call a plumber!
Opinions of Nazi scum
I'm sure Ukraine does hate Musk because he's a piece of shit who parrots Russian propaganda and sells Starlink terminals to the Russian military
wild way to spell russia.
They are protecting their Homeland from invasion-Elon has other motives!!!
Yeah. Russian bodies mostly. That's why he's so angry.
It's literally the geopolitical version of "Why are you hitting yourself? Why are you hitting yourself?"
