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.

Take the country’s word for it? Some of those politicians are the biggest liars of all! Trump, Putin, Netanyahu etc couldn’t lie straight in bed!
Yeah, I feel like people are up oting the headline without reading OPs rant they included with it...
I'm going to bet that he's hiding somewhere, because he doesn't want to end like the Khomeini or on trial. So his propaganda team put out rumors that he's dead and then they released obviously fake videos to cause distractions and confusions, and then later they're going to say no actually he's dead with his family so the world forgets about them and they're out free in their safe haven.
In the end a specimen like him does not end zionism or it's atrocities, there's plenty others like him.
he did run away the first time he hit Iran to about retaliation. he flew to another country so only his subjects are harmed
Yup that's what I heard back then.
Would be pretty great honestly. It gives autocratic rulers a way out without worrying to be hunted by some past enemies - given they aren’t narcissists that simply want to rule till the bitter end.
If there are norms saying content is true until proven otherwise as you say.... Welll... That can also be exploited the other way around. I swear it's not me abusing those minors. It was AI. I swear no it's not me cheating my partner, it's AI. It's not me caught saying something compromising over what I thought was a closed microphone, it was AI.
I see what you are trying to do but this is a damned if you do, damned if you don't kind of situation.
Wild open access to vast reliable information has to be a social anomaly. I think the US will basically rewrite the Internet to promote national interest. It's worked well for China. I think they can basically control the population with an app.
Basically Internet becomes TV. It's entertaining and could be educational, but it is mostly useful to help people find sales and remember to work hard and respect their financial betters.
The Internet had scads of potential, still does, but imagine how radio enthusiasm changed from two way to broadcast communication.
So, it'll just be like the early ninties again? People had similar feelings about digital technology being easy to manipulate.
An interesting theory and possible too. I'm a bit ignorant and I'm aware my skepticism is based on that gap knowledge, so here I ask: when did China implement these reforms? Was the Internet already widespread and part of everyone's lives as it is today for most western countries? And with regards to radio, did we ever reach a point where everyone had access to radio for communication both ways 24/7, as is the case with internet today? What I'm trying to say is I don't see a resource being reclaimed back, simply cut short just in time. Perhaps I'm too naive and hopeful but I don't see the same happening as smoothly with internet today.
That's a terrible idea. Administrations would have to issue statements 24/7.
You're not wrong, but, eh. I wanna see the obviously-fake-statements by obviously-not-trump. This might get interesting.
Good that should keep them busy
“That’s a bad idea because I think it would be hard” You’re presuming that they wouldn’t have to avoid lying as much.
OK, let me put it this way: I set up 50 shell newspapers that push 100 articles per day along the line of "Politician A is a reptilian", "Government Y is hiding aliens", etc. Do you really think it is productive work for an administration to a) find these statements, b) research the validity (after all an otherwise unknown agency could really be hiding aliens), c) rebute or confirm the statement and d) enforce the rebuttal?
Pandora's Box was opened just before the worst administration to open it under.
This world has reached quite a level of absurdity. Me are no longer in the information age and have entered the age of disinformation.

well zuckerborg is an android, i would ben surprised if zuck had him replaced with an android too.
Are we.. serious here? You think an Android replaced Mark?
No judgement just checking
Zuck has been looking uncharacteristically human lately.
Probably one of musk's, it's not very convincing.
Okay, now, do any of you think it truly matters? The geopolitical objectives of the settler state of Israel, just like the settler collection of states called the USA, have always been known and strictly adhered to regardless of who's the acting head scapegoat, right? Dead or not, Israelis, just like many Americans, are a bloodthirsty, amoral, sociopathic group of people. They could've been just regular white folks had they been raised in a different environment, maybe, but they weren't and that's the reality of things. Call me pessimistic if you want but I don't think things will change with Satanyahu dead, just like things haven't changed in the direction of American geopolitics (they're just more restrained now [and at times more violent since the walls are closing in] because of the rising multipolar world and the fact that, being amoral and selfish beings, corruption [read: inefficiency] is on every level of government).
