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.

It’s rich that the conservatives are complaining about this, Harper did the same thing. It’s not a party issue it’s a politics issue.
"But Harper" not relevant. Its a fucking cop issue though. The fucking arrogance in those eyes.
That’s my whole fucking point, it’s not relevant. Jesus fucking christ I’m so exhausted by you people.
Said the guy who's first line was "But Harper" when nobody was talking ideology other than fascist cop methodology
I think they were referring to the Toronto Sun being a right bias paper.
Doesn't matter either, that article itself wasn't showing any signs. Unless he thinks it wasn't newsworthy, which definitely would show someone's got a bias.
So there is a thing you can do, publish some non biased articles, then start publishing more and more radical stuff and try to use the neutral as a buffer.
“Yeah , I am saying some crazy hateful shit, but look at my other articles, you can totally trust me and anyone saying different is just trying to discredit me.”
That was not an article, it was just a list of overreactions by right-wing personalities.
That's great. Now watch the video in the article
The article literally has quotes from PP saying this is what happens after 8 years of Trudeau. I’m not arguing with someone who can’t read their sources, this is literally what they want you to be arguing about instead of the fact that every PM in recent memory has used the RCMP as their personal protection squad.
I guess Harper is the one prevented me from sharing this article on Facebook? Aside from that, of course they have a Pierre quote, he's the leader of the opposition. What I meant was, no one in this thread was making in about left or right till "BUT HAARPER" showed up. Like you expect me to say this shit is OK cause Harper did it? I don't, I remember being pissed at his shit too.
