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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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.

Classic @technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com propaganda post
Focus on the substance, here's the evidence laid bare: Geopolitical Economy Report. Stop acting reflexively ignorant.
Good thing you linked to a video from a group with a Marxist name to convince us that the World Socialist Web Site article is legit.
When I read the title, I thought the OP had editorialised it. Then, I clicked through and realised it was editorialised by the source itself. This is not serious news. It is effectively opinion. It does not belong here. Read the rules again, OP.
Fuck WSWS. They support russian genocidal imperialism!
Yes a tankie propaganda site. You would need to read an evidence based publication to decide if she deserves the prize or not
You are a national extremist, using dehumanizing language (roaches, degenerates) against your politcal opponents. Things that fascists do. People should ignore you, Mods should ban you.
The claim, that socialist journalism supports "russian genocidal imperialism" is counterfactual, based on a deep misunderstanding what their analysis means and directed by your own ideological encrustation.
No, it is fair to call disgusting tankies roaches and degenerates.
There is no ideology involved. "North Korea is a great place to live and is a vanguard against imperialism" is not a serious statement.
We both know that the vast majority of tankies are bored teenagers and malicious demagogues. Don't play dumb with me.
The tankie source does support russian genocidal imperialism.
You don't even speak Ukrainian or russian and have never. You're in no position talk about "deep misunderstanding".
Thanks for proving my point.
No, it is fair to call disgusting tankies roaches and degenerates. There is no ideology involved.
Like, lol. But alright, let's go, I bite.
No sane person would confirm, that it's "fair" to use dehumanizing language. That statement only shows how far off the rails you are. But alright, what's a tankie for you? I asked in the past, you didn't answer. Every russian? People that support a socialist agenda? You use that as a blanket statement, as a degoratory generalisation against people that do not support your hate-fueled diarrhea. And the hate comes through in the form of dehumanising hate speech. Thanks for affirming that.
"North Korea is a great place to live and is a vanguard against imperialism" is not a serious statement.
Okay sure, so you do not think that North Korea does exist in a constant struggle against capitalist takeover? Sure, that's an acceptable take. But why do you have to make things up and generalise, again, to then throw that fantasy take as a blanket over every "tankie"? I'm sure, there might once has been some person that might have said that, but what does that prove about anyone else, other than that person? You do realise this is disingenuous and dumb, right?
We both know that the vast majority of tankies are bored teenagers and malicious demagogues. Don't play dumb with me.
I reject every part of that take - you seem to be living in oppositve-world. It's driven by your ideological hate towards leftist thought. Do you ever leave your flat? Why do you keep generalising towards your degoratory use of the word "tankie", only to excuse yourself to dehumanise people?
The tankie source does support russian genocidal imperialism.
Without yapping, prove their support for "russian genocidal imperialism", and while doing that, please also prove the "genocidal" part. And I mean support, you know what the word means, right? Again, not just some kind of position that's not in line with your hope and dreams for your national purity.
"The pattern shows that accusations of supporting 'Russian genocidal imperialism' primarily come from centrist liberals, NATO supporters, and establishment political figures who use these extreme characterizations to delegitimize any leftist critique of Western foreign policy, regardless of whether those leftists actually support Russian actions or simply advocate for diplomatic solutions and criticism of all imperial powers." Some AI summary, because I can't be bothered to do more for you.
You don't even speak Ukrainian or russian and have never. You're in position talk about "deep misunderstanding"
*no position You excluding my opinion based on nationality or language (without actually knowing which languages I speak) is an immature ad hominem, a clear sign of your nationalist character and also displays your lack of understanding socialist or communist thought. Are you claiming, that "tankies" are always russian or that every socialist is a tankie? What you say doesnt even make any sense. What's with socialist Ukrainians, are they tankie cockroaches, too? So, do I either have to be a tankie or an enemy of a tankie to actually understand either take and formulate an opinion on them? You do have opinions on Palestine and Israel, I've seen. But you're neither. You see the problem?
You're full of shit and you are a hateful nationalist. Get fucked.
You know exactly what a tankie is, don't play dumb.
I will most definitely call out idiots who roleplay as communists online and don't speak any other languages. No one is buying your bullshit about "Ukrainian socialists". The communists party of Ukraine was a russian proxy force. Genuine Ukrainian socialists (or anyone for that matter) would want nothing to do with some online roleplayers who come up with degenerate statements such "North Korea is the vanguard against imperialism!" and support russian genocidal imperialism.
It is amazing how the tankies are cuddling up to the fascists in support of Russian imperialism
Watch carefully. You won't see civilization fall apart at this rate twice in a lifetime.
