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.
-
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.

mods please fix your moderation
last time i pasted a comment trying to express fact based evidence of why israel is not committing genocide but it got removed , please let others with opposing views show their evidences other wise you are increasing the suffering of both the gazans and israelis, you are trying to marginalize and radicalize pro-pallestinians more and more if you try to shut the communication of facts between them, simply shouting hasbara and israeli propaganda is just ad hominem , if this war escalates you will have not just anti-israelis but also anti-west here as well, infact in some threads you already do.
so please kindly be fair with moderation , let us not turn this into an echo chamber :-), sort the thread in such a way that both arguments are communicated, communication the way to peace and solving problems
It takes about 2 seconds of looking at your profile to find comments such as...
So if youre going to talk about others spreading misinformation, kindly shut the fuck up.
"Pallys"
yea that's a short form of pro-palestinians
Reminds me of "darkies" and "pakis" and other similar racist terms. I know what it means, trust me
Literally “I can’t be wrong, EVERYONE ELSE is wrong”
it is not misinfo
are you saying they are accepting of progressives, israel and apostates?
Insults and propaganda are your entire post history.
You do know we can see that right?
Y'all already have the uncritical support of corporate news media and basically every US politician. I don't think there's any risk your propaganda won't be able to spread, you can relax.
i guess that allows others to spread misinfo i guess
