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.

I am from south asia
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know Russian web brigades hired foreign workers. So you're from North Korea then?
stop thinking about russia, theyre weak.
So is your trolling
Not really, I successfully ragebaited a liberal
I haven't seen a single liberal in the entire thread other than you (as you defend Israel as a liberal democracy instead of a fascist dictatorship), but good on you dude. But if you're really from the south of Asia, isn't it way past your bedtime already? As you probably have school tomorrow. And if not, maybe it's time you start going to school as you clearly don't know what you're talking about. You don't even know what liberalism is. You talk like a liberal while accuse others of being liberal who clearly are not. But you what they say, ignorance is a bliss.
Israel is infact a liberal democracy with periodic elections, freedom of speech, capitalism, etc. It was apple of eye of all western liberals as the sole democracy in middle east until the genocide that followed october 7th. Talkk to average american liberal they would still say israel has a right to exist as jewish state.
Dont care about my schooling, care about your ideology.
Western liberals weren't paying attention to the years of massive protests against corruption and consolidation of power that make Trump and his pet SCOTUS look like amateurs even to the liberal-Zionist Ashkenazi centrists, starting well before 2023. Western media loves to totally ignore the millions of Israeli subjects living under permanent martial law, too, so of course their viewership would say "democracy" based on what they were shown. The final crack in the facade doesn't make the lies before it real.
