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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.

The first time I heard about this guy was when this stuff with Thunberg happened.
I just don’t understand what actually happened there. Why would Someone with a ton of money and a successful scam running (getting payed by stupid young men looking for advice) start participating in human trafficking?
And why in Europe? Everything about this guy is weird and doesn’t make sense. Whenever this guy talks, I don’t know if he is serious or a comedian. Whenever he talks he mixes up reasonable stuff with the most brain-dead ideas.
He is like a hybrid of Trump and Biden. Mixed together and raised by Tuco Salamanca and Saul Goodman from Breaking Bad.
I think that it was the other way around. He made money with web cam girls, expanded into human trafficking and then started selling advice about how he made his money.
Yeah his money comes from the girls not his influencer business
You're saying Scarface had it backwards this whole time?
Facescar
"Say friend to my little hello!"
I just looked up. This has been years ago.
If the accusations are correct, is there even any chance they find evidence?
He's bragged about a lot of it, that's evidence. He's directly taunted his rape victims, explicitly saying that enjoyed their lack of enjoyment. I believe they also have several women testifying. I don't know what else there is though.
I never knew much about this guy but I recently saw a horrific video with him and one of his girls floating around the Web. That gave me enough evidence
Does not sound like they got tangible evidence. A shame if he is truly guilty.
You're familiar with white supremacists already and understand they are real.
Just replace white with male supremacist instead. Everything will slot into place. Similar groups of people with very similar behaviours that often overlap.
