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.

Cool, where can I flee to?
It depends.
Are you:
A. a rich person that have a lot of money ready to be invested in another country?
B. a "skilled worker"?
C. have close relatives in the target country to sponsor you?
D. be able to marry someone of another country? (EU allows same-sex marriage, you have... options... 😉)
E. have a claim to citizenship via jus sanguinis?
Otherwise, I'm sorry, you're stuck in here. 👀
I think I have a claim of jus sanguinis, but its People's Republic of China... so nah I'll pass.
Fine, male mail order bride it is. No kiss on mouth!
I understood what jus sanguinis meant from context but oh my god does that sound gross. I never knew it was called that.
It makes me think of like a drippy blue rare stake which like, delicious, but also not how I'd want to claim my heritage.
That’s what I am thinking!! I legit am a human without a state if “Mango Mussolini” in fact revokes the 14th amendment! Even thought Drumpf and Elon came here ILLEGALLY when my dad came here with a sponser from a church and became a citizen right away! GIVE ME MY TAX MONEY BACK THEN from 15-35 years on… if not then I am an American! I pay taxes and born with a SS# so wtf! If not GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK or F off! Like Drump said about egg prices, “shut up!”. From the douche lord himself!
FUCK AMERICA; WE ARE FUCKED! (New motto)
But really, where would I go?!?!
I once camped at a hick RV park on a lake. One of the RV'ers had erected a flag pole that had an American flag and below that a flag that read, "WELCOME TO THE SHIT SHOW."
I think those flags should always fly together.
I would say come here to Canada, but... 🤷♂️
You guys should build a wall.
Seriously, don't even let me in. It would just be a matter of time before I fuck something up
As an American I kind of agree.
well yes but have you considered that he's the group laws protect but do not bind, and you're part of the group laws bind but do not protect?
most you'll get out of these fuckers is a free camping trip. or really satisfying revenge.
Washington’s governor has stated that women and trans rights will be upheld against the federal government’s policies. It’s not fleeing, because we’re fighting.
