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.

Hassan Piker is only far left if you're far right.
Isn't this the guy who praises China and the CCP?
It's CPC, and China does a lot right. But people would rather keep CIA narratives than actually learn. Finally, because someone can acknowledge what another nation has done and is doing doesn't make them "far left." Western people have been prodded so far right, so slowly that the collective memory of what US "right" and "left", the common purview is anything left of Reagan is "far left."
China is an authoritarian dictatorship, so if it does anything right that really doesn't matter.
Not that the US are better but what a wild stance to just decide to take unprompted
The usa is a democracy that is responsible of ton of coups, creation of failed states and murder of millions of people all over the world
Yes, that's correct
What's wild is blind hatred based on everything I just listed.
Is it blind hatred to recognize that china is authoritarian? Lol
To dismiss any good thing about China yes it is.
When did that happen?
China is quite possibly less authoritarian than Western governments. All states have and use authority. Better it's used for the citizens' housing, health, food, transportation needs than Elon and Bezos.
Edit: also while discussing authoritarianism, perhaps check the thread title and read the article. This is what Western authoritianism is for and spends.
Authoritarianism is when people are allowed to petition the government with their grievances
Way to deliberately miss the point. The point is ethnonationalism and genocide and apologia/encouragement.
Uhhhhh...... No see I DONT want to encourage those things. That's why I don't like china
Yes China does all of those things. Really awesome to see you’ve challenged your own flawed reality so quickly 😄
hes pretty much a resistance grifter though, he comes from the burgeoise, his turkish family is wealthy asf, plus cenk ughyger got him a job right out of college on tyt. his fans only like him because they think hes attractive. plus his multimillion dollar home dint come from his own pocket.
So you ignore Marx and Engels because of their bourgeois origins?
We are all in an evil society and we're all tainted by it. Nobody's pure. And you can take my word for it because of my own working-class origin.
He's very open about his financial security though, it's not like he cosplays as working class. How much money does he actually make? Does he push much merch and shit? I usually only see him in clips.
