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.

Sorry, my dude. Take your project 2025 boogie man stuff down the road. Call me when something actually happens.
Action > talk
You mean like how they're murdering women by preventing life saving health care?
At least this dude said something. These women were killed for simply being a woman.
The action is already started.
I think you misunderstand his point.
He's saying nothing will change for the better until we actually see it happen.
I disagree.
OP: The thread starts saying america isn't perfect, but at least they can say what they want.
Reply: The reply is that Iran didn't start that way either and with project 2025 were headed that way.
OP: Project 2025 is boogeyman scary stuff, stop trying to scare people and call me when they actually are doing something.
Me: They're already murdering women.
He's essentially brushing off the start of project 2025 saying the whole thing is talk, when we have actual actions already. (edit: We have every reason to expect more actions.) (edit: just to further clarify... project 2025 started before 2025, it's a long term plan by the far right they've been working on implementing for a very long time)
I don't believe you know what "murder" means.
Again, someone call me when this project 2025 stuff starts coming to light. And I mean legitimately.

I'm fucking saving this shit before you try to delete it if someone does call you out.
Delete it for what? I don't know any of you people. You mean nothing to me. Some of you folks legit need to go outside a bit more.
I don't fucking know, but here it is in all it's glory.
Finally, someone with a brain.
You mean like the raft of executive orders that Trump just signed that were directly out of Project 2025?
If that's the case, left wing MSM will undoubtedly begin dropping stories making this exact claim. I'll be on the look out for them.
"You say I have been stabbed, and I am actually bleeding with a knife in me, but Fox News hasn't told me about it so far so you must be a just a lying fear mongerer"
Don't worry, his pregnant girlfriend, who was only pregnant because contraceptives were illegal, will die from complications easily solved other than the option being illegal, and he'll be jailed for fetalcide because he couldn't pray the problem away, and he'll still be wondering where the actions are.
Let it go. Fox News can't hurt you anymore.
There is absolutely ZERO left wing MSM. It does not now nor has it ever existed
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I totally agree.
It's a shame this generation hasn't realized that talk is cheap yet.
