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.

Because New York hasn't revolted yet
USA is a terrorist state and must be dismantled.
Good news: it will collapse.
Not fast enough
Russia has been holding on in a similar state for quite a while now
Rome was neither built nor fell in a day. Russia is out of gas. They are conscripting people to die in Ukraine. You are witnessing an empire in collapse.
Hang on a minute, I'm using that.
How the fuck is this valid? The UN HQ and surrounding land should be should be a principality allowing anyone to go there.
Petty US government bullshit.
The USA wants total control, because a permanent seat wasn't enough and they think WWIII is impossible.
Nope, it wants anarchy. They want to destroy America and the Union so that they can take over and create a fascist theocracy using their mindboggling wealth and influence in order to never have to bother with elections or rule of law again.
When they talk about the "good old times" they're talking about the 1600s.
anarchy79 is warning us that the fascists want anarchy 🤔
I'm dyslectic. I misspelled arachny.
This is fucking horrible. Surely the UN has some pull to get these people in?
They'll still attend by videocall. It's just the US being petty.
No the UN doesn't
Death to US imperialism and US-led genocide.
What's funny is that Abbas is a Zionist bootlicker who does whatever he's told but even that isn't enough humiliation for the Epstein class.
even that isn't enough humiliation for the Epstein class
Well, naturally. Epstein was a mossad asset. Anyone who's been to one of his parties, Israel has so much kompromat on, they'll do whatever's necessary to appease their masters.
That's how traitors are always treated . Nobody respect them
Cuba Once Again Denies American Officials Visas to Attend Guantánamo Torture
Oh no wait. Can we all agree that the UN should not be within US borders or under US jurisdiction. If that means moving it, so be it.
But the UN as an organisation is arguably acting as intended as a purpose-built tool to impose the hegemony of the US, UK, Russia and China
Boycott America I guess.
~~America~~ Israel first
pathetic behaviour from the epstein network regime once again
I mean the Epstein thing was likely coordinated by Mossad so no surprises there.
Yep 100%
Traitors are not respect neither by the colonized and neither by the colonizers and their enablers
Europe should make their own U.N.
