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.

Telling me I'm not a real Jew because I don't support Israel 👍
I honestly don’t think that you will find many people in the Fediverse that condone Netanyahu and his right wing cronies in the Israeli government. Criticizing them is done legitimately so and at length. If you don’t see that you probably miss eyes and ears …
To me it looks very much like a leopards ate my face situation unfolding with you. At the Moment you are the useful idiot for Hamas so they might even cheer you on - but that WILL change. Have you ever heard anything about the Jews for Hitler?
Lehi (militant group) that actively attempted to align with the Third Reich before and during WWII?
Yeah, the Nationalist, Zionist, Ethno-Supremacist, Crypto-Fascist terrorist organization that was a preeminent force in the formation of the Jewish ethno-religious state of Israel. Oh and by the way, they also went on to form Likud, you know, the far-right political party of which Benjamin Netanyahu is a member.
Yes, that's right. Israel was partly founded by, and currently controlled by a political movement who learned from and attempted to directly align with Nazi Germany. So, careful where you're slinging around your jack-boot history unless you want to admit that Israel was created with the support of literal terrorists and fascist sympathizers.
We even have something similar today: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Voices_for_Trump
Notice by the way how your last two comments were merely your own deductions about how you see yourself because I never said any of what you claim in them.
You called a Jewish person an anti Semite because they do not believe Israel has the right to steal land and slaughter civilians. No where did I mention religion or Jewish people anywhere.
Nope, I did say however that antisemites dodge your open Hamas support and justification of their terror acts and thanked you for your honesty. That you concluded something else is entirely on you.
