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.

Antisemitism is always hate against Jews. That’s what this term was introduced for originally and all it ever meant.
Israel‘s existence is legal. It’s based on international law backed by the League of Nations and the United Nations. Israel is recognized by 85% of countries worldwide, a number which only goes up.
Calling for the ethnic cleansing of half of the world’s Jews from their ancestral homeland is of course blatant antisemitism.
10% of Israelis have a second passport.
The majority of Israeli Jews have ancestry from the Middle East. They fled from the whole of the Middle East to the only place safe for them. These people can’t go „back“.
The Jews are going nowhere, because they have nowhere to go. This isn’t French Algeria.
You want people whose parents were born and raised in Israel to be replaced by people whose parents were born and raised outside Palestine.
Your statement proves exactly why Israel needs to exist and why there’s no partner for peace.
Your attitude has only lead to decades of violence and suffering for Palestinians. It ensures nothing will get better for them. Clinging to the delusion of Israel just vanishing some day is what has kept this conflict fueled to this day.
For you any number of dead Palestinians are acceptable as long as Israel is somewhat inconvenienced. The more Palestinians die, the more your hate is justified. That’s why you advocate for the course of action that will lead to their deaths.
There’s nothing pro Palestinian in your message, only hate against Israel. Sadly that’s what a large part of the so-called pro Palestine movement has come to today. Improving their living conditions and building a future for them in peace, coexistence, and prosperity is of no interest to you. It’s snd ideology of hate and death.
Nonsense.
