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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Well that escalated quickly
gotta keep the deflect up from the epstein files
If bombing civilians and kidnapping heads of state is the level of deflection we're at, then "Trump is a pedophile" could not even be the worst thing to come out of the Epstein files.
The Epstein files already have revealed allegations of infanticide against Trump.
But realistically, Trump's personality doesn't require him to compare the two things. He has one thing that he doesn't want to do and it makes him look weak. And then he thinks people might be distracted if he does this other thing that he really really wants to do, anyways.
We're lucky somebody must have kept Trump from dropping nuclear bombs on Venezuela.
Yeah, but third time is a charm, as they say. He surrounded himself with lunatics that may be worse than him.
Oh, it's not.

Fuck off with your epstein files. It is terrible what happened to the epstein files and should be released but there are still ton of terrible things happening even worst thsn Epstein
Idk, Epstein being Mossad pretty much ensures every document leading to heinous stuff.
How doing another very hineous thing like this is a good deflection from the files and other hineous things?
Like how many illegal regime changes have been effected so a particular state can retain a currency hegemony, including via proxy wars and proxy terrorism.
The thing is, these files have the power to stop this evil man, and bring down the GOP's reign of power.
These are reputable accounts of Trump's pedophilia, child abuse, child rape, and even an account of being party to infanticide.
So we already know that about Trump and now he is doing another terrible thing like mudering civilians and kidnapping people and this suppose tocmake Trump look any better?
