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.

You don't get to say "some Muslims are in peace". Muslims are part of a religion that is causing a lot of troubles.
When someone is part of a big organization, like the police, one does not get to say "not all of us are pigs". If they are not raising their hand and telling on the shitty people causing problems, then everyone is the problem.
Everyone says this bullshit until it's their group causing the problems and then all of a sudden they deserve mercy and understanding for how complex their situation is.
Most Muslims are decent people. If they weren't, the west would be in a continuous state of violence. People like you are just racist assholes looking for any excuse to justify your prejudice.
You don't get to judge an entire group by the worst members without it coming back to bite you in the ass some day.
If I were part of a religion that is so extrem that is killing people and attacking members of the LGBT community, etc, I would 100% leave said religion/group. Its not really that hard to do it. A decent person wouldn't be a part of those kind of groups.
I mean... you're a citizen of a country, right?
Once again a stupid analogy. I can't be not a citizen of any country. You can be not a member of any religion.
You can choose to leave a country and join a different one. But you haven't, so you belong to it.
But your thought processes are clearly blocked. I'm certainly not going to try to open them. Closed minds are boring.
You wouldn't give a shit if you did. Most of my Muslim friends aren't religious at all, pro-LGBT and everything. They still get shat on by racist fucks like you. You don't care about people.
your addiction to analogies hasn't helped you a bit into at least making proper analogies
And your education has sadly failed you in teaching you what an analogy is.
An analogy is a comparison. I wasn't comparing, just trying to teach you a basic logical thought process. Don't worry, I've given up on that. I can see why your teachers failed. Prejudice is a hell of an intelligence blocker.
Oh so you have the whole world figured out now? Collective punishment is for fascists.
Fucking piece of shit. You're no different from the intolerant people you hate so much.
Quick glance tells me you're mexican.. Which Cartel do you work for then?
Cartels aren't a religion that are trying to expand over the world.
It is honestly, with all due respect, a very stupid comparison.
Just saying; your take wasn't exactly enlightened either.
It's just as stupid as your moronic comparison, cartel enabler. If you really cared about the damage the cartels do to the world you'd leave Mexico. We don't want to hear your excuses.
I left Mexico many years ago, lol. Now you leave your religion of peace.
You left to where, the US to commit more crime? Stay tf away from civilization please. We don't need more Mexican criminals here.
😯
Oh, so it's okay to belong to a group of people whose open tenet is murdering and enslaving people, but a religion that teaches against those things, but has a few nutjobs is somehow not?
Strong logic there. Completely free of bias. 🙄
Who is saying that cartels are ok?
Also... "a religion that teaches against those things". You are really brainwashed.
You're excusing cartels: organizations that are absolutely and unashamedly expanding and taking over the world, simply because they aren't a religion.
That may not be your intended meaning, but it's definitely connotated.
Dogma doesn't have to have a God to be dangerous.
Fuck cartels, that's the reason I left Mexico.
You can also leave your religion of peace.
