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.

By all means, tear down the illusory veil of peace, just as the US has. A rotten situation all around. Targeting oil infrastructure makes sense, strategically, but what does this accomplish?
Anyways, Fuck the Epstein Class. May they all perish at the hands of “Our Lord ” and burn in “Eternal Hellfire”.
How many feathers can they pluck from the proletariat before the Hen rears its head and starts pecking? When will the Cock bear its claws?
The Hen and Cock will soon be naked and bereft of their identity, cold and shivering and scared, reduced to nothing more than sentient bags of flesh and bone, dwarfed by the imposing and seemingly insurmountable stature of the plucker.
In an absence of feathers, flesh is taken.
It hurts. Tremendously.
And soon the Hen and Cock will die together, and they’ll have their insides outside, and they’ll be ground up and eaten, turned to shit.
Shit is inert. Unmoving, unconscious, and utterly incapable.
Could the Hen and Cock have saved themselves, had they a means to defy their innate and learned conditioning?
Hens and Cocks can’t do that.
I say this typing from my phone.
One thing that’s cool about technology is that it lets us operate outside our evolutionary and imparted constraints. Fuck you, multiplication tables. Fuck you, cable news. Fuck you, school system. I have the means to multiply, I have the means to teleport across the globe and see it all firsthand; I have the entire world and the history of Humanity’s entire bloodline in cusp of my fucking hand.
And yet I am still constrained by this bag of flesh. I am flawed, an addict, a slave to The Entertainment, not even a cock, just an ant that moves numbers instead of dirt.
