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.

MODERATORS
And HOW!
Slava Ukraini!!
If they could arrange for Jared Kushner to take a one way tour to a Russian refinery, they could eliminate a pretty big share of global corruption.
Paper tiger president
Felon rapist president.
They'll stop in 2030 as soon as they get the Patriots the US has sold them.
Word.
Terrible journalist slop. Putting the blatant lies in the article, not refuting it with the facts that the fuel price increase is a direct consequence from the usa starting a war with Iran.
Weeeell they are reporting on the he said she said but without stating truthfulness. Technically accurate, practically useless for whoever doesn't have any context

I'm sorry, there was some kind of agreement?
All i've seen is a senile old pedophile yelling stuff.
He basically said stop hitting russian refineries and in return we stop giving you interceptors regardless. It's the retarded version of carrot and a stick but without the carrot
Nothing new here I don't think. Ukraine has always said they are open to an energy ceasefire. If the orange fuckwit wants it to happen he'll have to get Putin's dick out of his mouth for long enough to beg him to agree to it.
Ukraine is doing math here. If they stop, trump may be seen as peace maker and wins votes. Trump is a putin ally basically at this point. If they go on they weaken their enemy AND may shift elections to a more moderate candidate in the US by elevated gas prices.
Of course this could go tits up if they lose international support. Destruction of northstream might have helped anti ukraine parties rise in germany. But regarding infrastructure inside russia i think they can only win.
Lol at the idea of Germany giving up on Ukraine, they will deserve the Russian invasion at that point if they do
Isn't AfD the largest party in Germany now? They're pro-Russia
Hmmm let me take two seconds to google this
Unfortunately Germans tend to get very dense when it gets to some political stuff. 🌝
Some simply don’t get what is so controversial about building Nordstream in the first place and how it undermines their independence (and I don’t just mean energy independence).
They have Gerhard Schröder as a clearest example of someone given a share in Russian gas sales, but Nordstream is just “two countries doing business, is buying energy from France also undermining our independence?”.

Good hunting, Slava Ukraini
Fuck Trump. Honestly, best advice is to do the opposite of what Trump says.
Heck, if Trump said the sky was blue, I'd have to double check it actually was.
I wish we in Europe could get our shit together and support Ukraine properly so they don't have to rely on the senile clown anymore.
It's kinda being done but the problem is that Europe's weapon production levels were lower than America's at the start of this and I think they still are.
Similarly America had far deeper stockpiles to begin with (though as the whole Patriot situation shows, maybe not by all that much in the stuff that matters - they sure have lots of conventional bombs to give Israel to bomb Gaza but their Patriot missile stocks turned out not to be enough to face Iran)
Finally, with things sold by America it's almost always a shavers and razor blades situation - they sell you the shavers cheap and after that you're stuck having to buy their expensive razor blades. That's the problem Ukraine is having with Patriot - they got the systems early on and now are stuck having to buy the missiles from America and they ain't selling them anywhere near enough for their needs.
(That said, I don't even know if Europe has a homegrown air-defense system capable of intercepting balistic missiles).
Trump will go into history as the president who sat on his hands while he had the chance to permanently neuter a decades old ideological enemy.
Among other pants-on-head moronic moronic bullshit of course.
If only he was just sitting on his hands
... he would shit on them.
We had the chance to gather ALL the intel on how a modern, land-based war is fought, get some risk-free practice in and crush Russia. Fuck me.

Imperialist and expansionist Russia and U.S.
Slava Ukraini!
GOOD
Fuck ‘em up, boys
Good. Any defiance aimed at that fascist is a net positive for the planet.
Like I've always said. Ignore Trump and wait for the US to get a real leader again
The problems with the US go deeper than just their leadership. The country flings its arms open wide and gleefully embraces fascism every 4 or 8 years and this is getting even worse as technofascist corporations gain more and more control over ever branch of US government.
No country should ever trust the US again until it undergoes some serious internal changes.
The inevitable conclusion of capitalism is oligarchy. "But with regulations it's ok!"- yeah, the only way to make capitalism not enslave and kill us all is to inhibit capitalism from performing its natural function.
