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.
-
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.

To whomever is reading this conspiracionist crap, this person above is describing as mere "vandals" people who refused to accept the results of the elections, spent months camping in front of army QGs and later breaking into the congress, supreme court and destroying every fuckin thing they could find demanding a violent coup d'etat in support of a caricatural corrupt fascist piece of shit.
I'd like to remind you that the only instance a person can be sentenced to death in Brazil is for treason. So for getting 17 years (and we know very well that they won't stay there that long if they behave) I'd say that they got it lightly.
Also, by saying "censoring people who say things he doesn't like" you all can understand as committing crimes.
Look up what an actual violent coup is before you talk. Chile is a very good example of what it really is. And belive me, its not old ladies and people shitting in tables.
Also, i dont know if you consider yourself a leftist, but you are not. No humanity at all. To say 17 years in the brasilian prisons is light you have no soul at all.
And no, talking is not a crime
Oh, really?! So I can freely say racist homophobic shit to peoples faces and make death threats, spread falsehoods about your mom's sex life and demand a coup d'etat saying that the elections were defrauded without having any fucking evidence of that freely?! What a concept!
But no, these are all crimes according to Brazilian law. If you don't agree with that, become a politician or start a movement and demand change.
And don't you fucking dare to question my level of "leftiness" or my humanity towards people who wants me dead.
You can keep pretending that these were just old innocent old people while ignoring the fact that Bolsonaro himself was recorded among generals planing a coup, having documents to justify the coup in their possessions, that higher ups of the armed forces were onboard. The same Bolsonaro who said that he wanted to gun down and torture his political opponents.
Well, acording to the constitution. But you guys only use it to wipe your asses
