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.

Like, ignoring a trade deal we created? Oh no, that was him. Donnie, if you're going to attack people, you can't get upset when they defend themselves. Maybe you should just take your ball and go home?
Not a war crime the first time. Sit down, Donald.
Trump basically tried to play Rochambeau, said "I go first", kicked himself in the balls, then had Canada and Mexico take their turn, and it's now whining like a little bitch that his tiny balls hurt and saying it's not fair.
Canada: "I'll fuckin do it again"
Trump: "I challenge you to a fist fight!"
[gets punched]
Trump: "No fair! You cheated!"
"Not fair! I called tariffs no backsies!"
Donald Trump does not lose trade wars. He wins them, or he quits because the other side is cheating.
What a petulant fucking child.
Classic loser response: "you're cheating"
They should rage quit as well
"mommy, they're mean to me!!!"
I remember Trump rage quitting a NATO summit when Merkel, Trudeau, Macron, Johnson and Rutte were making fun of him during his first term. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/dec/04/trump-describes-trudeau-as-two-faced-over-nato-hot-mic-video
I meant him rage quitting with a gun
I hope he takes Vance and Musk with him then. Because him dead means Vance as president, and he's a lot more dangerous.
Im not sure. Vance lacks the power to command the mobs
Idiot fucks around, finds out. More at 11
What a fucking baby. You reap what you fucking sow. I'm glad Treadau didn't buy into the games of 'TARRIFF!!!...haha just kidding...TARIFFS AGAIN!!! Nope just kidding again'. It was obviously some stupid tactic to act like he was in control of the situation. Glad they're standing up to him.
the cryest of crybullies
Dude used the word war in a sentence with Canada. And now he's surprised at the result?
I'm a little surprised they've been so fair actually
im glad you asked me about playing with my balls, mister trump
"Plankton cheated!"
These sky high Tariffs are part of Canada's unfair, long-standing policy to shield domestic producers from foreign competition
"And only I'm allowed to do that", he continued.
It's always projection with this imbecile. At least we always know what he's up to, because he blatantly accuses other people of whatever he's thinking.
Yeah... we're definitely cool with becoming dependent on the US for our food supply.
"These sky high Tariffs are part of Canada's unfair, long-standing policy to shield domestic producers from foreign competition, especially in Agriculture," he continued. "Our Great U.S. Dairy Farmers deserve fair treatment from Canada. Enjoy it while you can!"
The bastard cries about “unfair policies” that use tariffs to protect a country’s industry and yet in his own Steel and Aluminum tariffs declaration he stated:
“To allow U.S. aluminum producers to restart production and to incentivize new capacity, additional adjustments to section 232 tariffs on aluminum need to be made, including limiting exemptions and increasing the tariff rate.”
Literal toddler tantrums.
This is Trump trying to tell his MAGA moron farmers that he's fighting for them when he's actually fucked them with these tariffs. US is THE largest agriculture exporters in the world. When the retaliatory tariffs come, his base is going to hurt because of him, they know it, he knows it, so he's trying to change the narrative.
Those farmers are already hurting from when elon killed USAID and suddenly it wasn't buying US farm produce to send overseas
All is fair in love and war. If you did not want to fight as though it were a war, then it would have been better not to send over a declaration of war.
Came here to say that lol
Not only is he a shitwit, a fuckwad, and a Nazi, but he's also a fucking pussy.
How dare you insult and defile the pussy with that hideous human turd! He's probably well over 100 courics!
Wow. If he loses even more connection to reality, he'll start getting transparent and floating away.
That's been the right wing talking point for a while now. It's the only thing they could come up with, because even to them the Fentanil explanation was to thin. Of course they completely ommit or ignore the quota part.
The article is "Trump truthed" rage bait.
The "cheating" is on the original USMCA where Canada has imposed steep tariffs on dairy products over a certain quota.
