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. 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.

She's going to say whatever she thinks will get her elected.
We can't trust her as far as we can throw her. All this kamala hype is just manufactured by people who spent money.
So what do you suggest? The guy who's already said he's for genocide?
All this kamala hype is just manufactured by people who spent money.
This is the point I was trying to make.
I'm not trying to attack or dog pile on you, I just want the rubber meets road pragmatism of what the best action is. What's the reality? I'm already aware neoliberals will not be progressives no matter how much you believe in fairies.
🥱
I was asking an honest question, if you're only about shit posting that's genuinely disappointing.
Sure you were.
I'm all ears. Do you think I'm doing this for the sweet sweet 0 upvotes? Or the fact that no one reads nested comments unless they wrote them?
Genocide Joe bots and trolls in shambles
The heck is wrong with you?
Netanyahu: "Please stop withholding weapons and support, please seriously guys cut it out"
TIME Magazine: "Is Netanyahu dragging out the conflict for political benefit?"
Biden: "There is every reason for people to draw that conclusion."
Kamala Harris: "I will not be silent."
Hexbear: "Congress gives Netanyahu Standing Ovation, blood on hands of every US lawmaker, US President personally responsible for tens of thousands of deaths directly."
Did you watch the video?
Republicans gave Netanyahu a standing ovation.
Dozens of Democrats abstained, the ones who attended remained seated, and Rashida Tlaib held up a sign that said “war criminal.”
I insult Hexbear at every opportunity, bunch of dictator cocksuckers they are.
Not touching this landmine 
I find it hilarious whenever I call them that they start wailing about homophobia, lol. Nobody insulted Eva Braun for sucking some guy off, the problem was that it was literally Hitler.
Democrats give lip service after months of ongoing escalating protests while continuing to arm Israel. Leftists in shambles.
