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.
-
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.

Fucking hot take from someone that doesn’t think about the stupid shit they say.
So my family is here literally because both grandparents escaped the Nazis. I’m not fucking here because of genocide in america, im here because of genocide in europe!
A genocide EUROPEANS didn’t handle let alone Germany!
Your words are meaningless. You don’t think about what America IS. Who really lives here!
That’s BEFORE the fact everyone took advantage of our military might while telling their citizens how much better they were because look at the cheap healthcare and education!
While they peep on the data of millions for the eyes of the surveillance state that is the USA in secret. For shame on everyone.
America is a fucking joke. Every American is at fault for all of the ills of the world. So fucking easy to be you, isn’t it? Offload all that bandwidth to people you don’t know, to think you’re above over a hundred million people. More people than most countries have in the usa and are against this. They vote in people who lied to them about leading them through this. All of our fucking allies helped in this charade!
Everyone is to fucking blame.
You are jumping to so many conclusions, I haven't claimed any of those things you seem to think I have.
The USA isn't alone and pretty much every country sucks. But the USA is the ruling country of the American Empire and it has been for nearly a century.
Honestly, I think you're just getting angry from the cognitive dissonance.
Just accept that your nation is the bad guys and that you need to change it. Yes, other people need to change too.
Honestly though, it's probably not going to matter, the US is in decline and pretty much is going to collapse soon.
