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.

Israel deverves that wholly, because it does control a whole lot via proxies, blackmail and antisemitism threats.
If Romania din terrible things, you call out Romania, you don't loiter around worrying about what will happen to diaspora citizens of Romania before calling out atrocities commited by Romania.
If Romania meddled in the US admin, building up blackmail and using it as leverage, you call out Romania.
The world already knows zionism is the issue, not jews, and if they don't they will be told until they understand.
But you can't just bend over and give Israel your other hole just because you may get called a racist undeservedly.
I can't be bothered to give a damn about a country that I see online constantly celebrating and threatening deaths of children, on every platform that doesn't censor it.
That's not what I'm saying, hear me out here. Fuck Israel, it should 100% be dissolved and their leaders should be tried for crimes against humanity and executed.
But you gotta realize you are replying to a thread which literally blames all jews. Not zionists, not even israeli jews, just all jews. We are on the precipice of repeating the events of the 20th century and while your anger is valid it is enabling it.
Israel does not control the US. It is 100% true that Israel has a powerful lobby and many in the ruling class have ties to Israel, but geopolitically speaking, Israel furthers the foreign policy interests of the United States, not the other way around.
Israel exists to ensure the middle east remains destabilized and ripe for colonial extractive interests. That's why the US sends Israel so much aid and weapons, because Israel is a weapon of US imperialism.
The holocaust is being committed by Israel against the semantic peoples and the holocaust is being committed against Latinos in the US literally nobody is even close to rounding up Jews. Put the koolaid down
A lot of what you say is right, but you're still missing the bigger picture. The goals of the USA and the goals of Israel *ARE THE SAME GOALS. * Your leaders have been lying to you about their true values. Only Trump has been telling everyone the truth about what he's doing, every other president in the past has been smart enough to say it's for some lofty higher goal, but Trump just says the quiet parts out loud.
The goals are Christo-fascism in the USA, Judeo-fascism in Israel, Russo-fascism in Russia.
They're all working together as part of the same agenda. Israel hasn't corrupted the US, the US was the corrupt one to begin with, and it spawned Israel, alongside the UK, to begin another colonialist project in the middle east.
We can't ignore the threats from within the USA and focus fully on Israel, we'd be fighting in the dark. The entire system needs to be dismantled because it's corrupt from the bottom up.
I didn't read the linked post admittedly, just the op on lemmy, but yea I agree, jews shouldn't all be bundled in this
Maybeb I'm just blind but I don't see a mention of all jews on the lemmy op text post
Sorry for being unclear, not the original post, but the original comment that started this thread:
Obviously they removed a couple of letters there to try and sidestep censorship but the meaning is clear. Comments like this are extremely prolific and regularly well received on many online platforms.
