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.

I don't think your method of open ended questions when pointing out some Jewish people as heads of banks (Rothschilds and heads of the federal reserve) hides from your antisemitism.
Example: A good portion of C-suite executives in tech are of indian descent. If they decide to start sending money to Modi or funding parties in the US because of their belief in Hindutva, doesn't mean that it's a global conspiracy or that "they control tech".
They're just rich assholes funding a fascist movement - not to mention the other rich assholes that put money behind movements like that for their own enrichment or ideas (like Zionist Christians who are a much bigger population than Jewish Zionists and very wealthy).
Wealthy benefactors will put down money for a cause they like, bad or good. And if it happens to be a good ROI, then that's all the more reason they'd do it.
Making blanket statements of an ethnicity is racist. Especially when structured power dynamics exist and are very obvious.
Any of this untrue from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chair_of_the_Federal_Reserve
Fed Chairman since 1970:
Arthur Burns 70-78. J. 8 yr
William Miller 78-79. P. 1.5 yr
Paul Volcker 79-87. J. 8 yr
Alan Greenspan 87-06. J. 19 yr
Ben Bernake 06-14. J. 8 yr
Janet Yellen 14-18. J. 4 yr
Jerome Powell 18-26. RC. 8 yr
Kevin Warsh 26- J
J= Jewish, RC = Roman catholic, P = Protestant
Religion is a facet of politics whether thats convenient for you or not and the legends in religions inform how its adherents see the world. When the country has ~2% of the population that are of the Jewish faith, and claiming judaism has any influence in banking is "antisemitism", explain why Its overwhelmingly the norm (~83% of the time) for Fed chairman to be of the jewish faith since 1970?
Is reality itself antisemitic?
Or are you just bad at gaslighting? Maybe you should keep your "antisemitism" accusations to yourself.
To follow up on why I deleted my earlier post, I read over some of your comments and you appear somewhat sane. But if you are going to chase this for your own jollies and some need to lecture people to never mention religion or they're automatically in the wrong, then fine lets do this. I have zero inherent respect for anyones religion and its the root of a lot of bad philosophy, tribalism, conflict and bad governance in the world.
