United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I really don't know what people expect of the UN. It's far from perfect, but it's still a means of getting countries to engage in some sort of dialogue and for countries to scrutinize each others actions. Granted, the original attempt (the League of Nations) failed to prevent WW2 but that was no reason not to try again. We might not gain much from the existence of the UN, but we stand to lose a heck of a lot without it.
The only people that really stand to benefit from losing the UN are fascists and other malignant autocrats. Aye it's not perfect, but it's better than nothing.
Anyone that doesn't agree with that is either also malignant or uninformed enough to fall for fascist propaganda.
