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.

Good thing they held out long enough to see Hungry outs big O and have the EU fund them.
Europe's help is coming; Ukraine should use it to buy non-US equipment.
For Vance and Trump, perhaps they will end up alone and isolated. That “great” thing they pride themselves on might be fading away.
The world has changed; their world has changed.
Another day, another action by the Trumpstein administration who somehow seems to be reveling in their own untouchable corruption while also plausibly being forced to do so by foreign actors with their kompromat.
Proud of genocidal conquests huh
This just makes Putin all too happy, because they're running dogs.
Aw come on, he’s not proud of massive increase in disease, people starving, needy people losing benefits, voter suppression, or depriving people of human rights? He’s not proud of loss of prestige and influence, alienating friends and allies (even Canada, that is a huge accomplishment), destruction of American science, education and technology?
I wonder if he's deliberately ramping up the outrage with some of his recent words and actions as a fresh distraction from the distraction from the files. Absorb some of the public opinion hits to let other decoys relax until it's the next one's turn.
He's been a prick the whole time so it's not a huge change from the usual. Seems like an extra 10 or 20% lately though.
