World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.
-
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.

“He liberated Avdiivka fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with Russians.”
“I definitely would do it again, I’d go back if I could,” Puello-Mota says in the video as he recounts his experience fighting in an “international brigade” alongside the Russian army.
What does it take for you to admit when you're wrong?
Let's see if he lasts the war before calling them wrong, eh?
I'm sure the Russians will protect their little American paedo trophy though.
The guy I was replying to was implying he would be dead quickly.
You're now moving the goalposts to "he won't survive the war."
This is how those indoctrinated by propaganda operate.
But let me guess: you're immune to propaganda because the only propaganda is coming from Russia.
What he said was "let's see how long he lasts". You're the one inferring the fast death.
I didn't move any goalposts. In fact I thought I made it clear that Russia wouldn't let their little paedo trophy die.
Of course I'm not immune to propaganda. Neither are you as you've made abundantly clear.
“Let’s see how long he lasts" implies that he won't last long.
If you can't understand this, then you need to improve your reading comprehension.
I think you can understand it, you just don't want to admit he's wrong so you're moving goalposts like I said from the very beginning.
Correct, I thought Ukraine actually had a chance of winning at first.
Based on the voting response of your comments, it might be your reading comprehension that could use some work. "Let's see how long he lasts" doesn't imply anything but an undefined timeframe. Just because you inferred something from that doesn't make you right.
no because your argument is fuckin dumb lol
"you said he will die soon and he didn't!"
like wtf? support the pedophile all you want kiddy diddler
Yeah maybe you're right about what was implied by them, but you keep conveniently ignoring the fact that I said Russia will keep him alive while parotting "shoulder to shoulder" propaganda and making out like I think I'm immune.
Oh. Hello again. Didn't like being called out in your last account so decided to create a new one. Lol.
Yeah.
You're too far gone. Sorry.
Lol. Nothing on them keeping the American paedo trophy alive.
See you when you come back with your next account to repeat that Ukraine has no chance and that you used to think they did.
