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.

Why am I not surprised that clicking on your profile leads to a history of genocide denialism.
What does any of that have to do with LGBT rights? Seems like an ad hominem at best.
Is this the part where y'all jump the shark and pretend like Palestine is a mecca of progressivism and civil rights?
And you seem to be on the other side of the spectrum...great.
Hamas suck and are causing atrocities and Israel has also a fair share of their own atrocities, but in the end a lot of those degenerated 'Our allah is great and death to Israel' fucks are the source of these conflicts and should be eradicated. They hate Jews, they hate Israel, they hate women, they hate christians, they hate the gay, those cunts have no real purpose on this world.
Get rid of them whatever they are called whether it's them Houtis, Taliban, Iran, Hamas, Catholics, Republicans, Russians, Hisbollah...and I bet you that there will be peace for Jews, Muslims, Gay, Women and everyone else.
I don't give a shit about Hamas politics, I care about the 30000 killed. I care that people redirect every conversation about saving Palestinians to "but do you condemn Hamas", which you are doing right now.
Ask yourself. who in their right mind would NOT be on the other side of the spectrum of a genocide?
You should, their killing of innocents was a huge kickstart for the latest offensive on Palestine...
Since the Hamas want to eradicate all Jews and Israel itself there is genocide on both sides of the spectrum. And instead of choosing the lesser evil between those too, I'd rather not choose at all.
The kickstart for this entire catastrophe did NOT start on October 7th. You have no idea what you are talking about and are just both sidesing a genocide. The United States Institute of Peace, an official federal institute, reported in 2009:
Not only do they not have outspoken cries for genocide, they are not in a position of power to commit a genocide. The UN's own criteria:
It took less than 3 days to quell the attack on their soil. Whereas in Gaza, the bombing campaigns have levelled 50% of all residential infrastructure as of a week ago. The prime minister has forcibly displaced millions and is now signaling that the IDF will be moving in. Settlement developers have been signaled they will be given land. Not only that, they have killed over 1% of the population in the bombing campaign alone. On top of that, 4 of 5 of all of food insecure are currently in Gaza. This will kill tens if not hundreds of thousands. Instead of listening to the ICJ's ruling that provisional measures NEED to be taken, which is a binding order, they have ignored the international courts and the globe has defunded UNRWA.
The only active genocide occurring is being carried out by the Israeli government. But PLEASE both sides this genocide. For you it is CRUCIAL that you stand up for Israeli interests, for some reason.
