Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Which is why mental health support needs more funding and more avalibility for those who struggle to afford it
I agree overall, but in this case, at least according to this website, Australia is number 10 when it comes to the best countries in the world for mental healthcare- https://www.william-russell.com/blog/countries-best-mental-healthcare/
Even if that isn't true, the Australian healthcare system overall is pretty good.
Unfortunately, even in a good, robust system, some people slip through the cracks and end up committing atrocities. See also Anders Breivik.
Thankfully, Australia also has sensible firearms laws after the Port Arthur Massacre, so this could have been far, far worse.
Australia has good laws when we have a good government implementing good laws
Robo-debt scotty and the rest of the lnp cronies are a problem and so are those other parties like one nation and those new ones that the racist bigots of Australia have formed
Google tells me that Cauchi is an Italian surname, so good luck to both the people who want to blame a Muslim and to the guy yesterday who tried to claim that the killer was named Benjamin Cohen.
So was it a terrorist or was it a lone wolf with mental health problems? I HAVE to know!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The family of Bondi Junction attacker Joel Cauchi have described his actions as “truly horrific”, offered condolences to the loved ones of the victims and expressed support for the police officer who ended the stabbing spree by shooting him dead.
Police say Cauchi had mental health problems and that he had moved from Queensland to New South Wales only a month before he took a knife into the crowded Sydney mall on Saturday afternoon and killed six people in an unprovoked stabbing spree.
Police in Queensland, where the 40-year-old lived before moving to New South Wales about a month ago, said they were also investigating claims that Cauchi had an interest in knives.
“We are continuing to work through the profiling of the offender but very clearly to us at this stage it will appear related to the mental health of the individual,” the NSW police assistant commissioner, Anthony Cooke, said.
Insp Amy Scott was conducting routine duties nearby when she was directed to go to the shopping centre by reports a man was using a “massive” knife to stab shoppers.
In a statement, the family confirmed the baby girl’s condition had improved.They described Good as “a beautiful mother, daughter, sister, partner, friend, all round outstanding human and so much more”.
