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.

Or you know America could ban the production of new guns and ammunition; and begin destroying guns already in circulation. That's the real answer to America's and central/south America gun problem. It's not like drugs where it's obvious when they are smuggled in large quantities. Guns can be disassembled and parts hidden within the maze of parts that is modern vehicles. Search every vehicle? As if a military personnel will be able to look at a engine bay and be able to tell if one piece of metal is a car part or gun part. But a brick of Fentanyl is kinda easier to tell if its supposed to be their. Also, since America has been a nation we have been treating central and South America as our personal trash can, war zone, political toy, and financial sow to be milked dry. A couple thousand dollars and a wink will get you past any check point into Mexico. Their military just as much as the police know the problem won't be solved at the boarder. You could find thousands of guns by searching every vehicle and it wouldn't make a dint; smugglers will just evolve. or you could prevent millions from every being made or transferred hands at the source. Or you know ending the war on drugs would defunct the cartels over night. The problem isn't the boarder!!! The problem is decades of poor policy and leadership in America.
So, how quickly do you capitulate to fascists?
Well, they already did when they elected the orange turd, didn't they ?
Not yet. The impacts haven't hit the ground yet, by and large.
Well, if fascists are in power, USAnians have already capitulated I'd say.
That's true :(
Yes cuz clearly all these guns stopped a coup. Also if you think there's going to be battles in the street over fascism, the fighting should have happened a long time ago. Turning back the clock will happen over our blood but not how you are thinking.
Takes a bit to get bad enough.
