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.

From my article linked above in the thread that you didn't read https://altmedia.house/post/183856

The US, Israel, and the West are involved in a large scale clandestine assault against Iran. Former CIA director Mike Pompeo claimed that there were Mossad agents "walking besides" the protestors. Iranian assets of these foreign forces were caught smuggling guns, ammunition, explosives, and Starlink devices into Iran. US-aligned Kurdish separatists admitted to activating and targeting Iranian security forces during the protests. The output of "Human Rights Activists in Iran" and "International Center for Human Rights" seems in alignment with the forceful clandestine targeting of Iran and not like objective human rights work.

Lmfao "200 kg of explosives". I guess those terrorists were planning on toppling the government by distributing the equivalent explosive payload of a large firework to each city.

"We heard voice recordings from abroad giving instructions" Well then I guess you have nothing to worry about because these terrorists are stupid enough to communicate over a clear channel. Wtf is this, WWII? And you still let them massacre your civilians when you have that level of intel? 😂

And a bunch of starlink devices? Seems pretty goddamn benign when you consider the government keeps cutting the internet. Hell I wish they had more of those so we would have a clear answer on what is happening on the ground, don't you???

Give up dude, your precious gender-apartheid government is clearly so strong that they don't need you to white knight for them. Go take your critical support and simp for some other autocratic religious fanatics. 🤡

hey man, I'm just trying to help you see through obvious fabricated propaganda coming from CIA fronts like the NED. But if you love the slop this much, by all means continue consuming it.
