What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Pretty sure he’s dragging down America’s reputation everywhere else, too.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 3 points 1 hour ago

Not exactly, some people already hate America.

Of course, but sinophobia and yellow peril narratives having been going strong in Aus for over a century.

To be more unpopular than Xi with australians is a big deal.

He's pretty much completely fucked America's reputation in the US, for anyone with a better than room temperature IQ at least.

Is that why they closed that art show? Because they hate Trump? lol. Sounds like they love him.

Do you mean the posters in the window of the bar in Canberra? I don't think you could call that an art show .. also pretty sure the took them down based solely on the Netanyahu poster, because Israel sympathisers can't handle the fact that they are the new nazis

[–] dieICEdie@lemmy.org 1 points 3 hours ago

Well either way. Simp for Netanyahu, simp for Trump. Same thing. Adios Australia.

Nah mate. We are a nation with really small population and dont have a strong military so we need US at all cost. We really try to be like Americans and we try hard so nothing going to damage American reputation here in Australia.
