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.

So, has Musk straight up admitted to being a white supremacist or has he only dropped anvil-sized hints so far?
Elon: "Why are they considered far-right? They don't look far-right to me!"
Also Elon: ⬅️-----------------------------🙋➡️
It's pretty much comes down to
Do they support trans people and trans rights?
Yes: Woke mind virus.
No: TAKE MY MONEY!
That's why he's in right wing politics now, he's said as much. His trans daughter, who he dead names, was "stolen" from him.
I highly doubt that he ever had a real connection to his children in the first place.
on the same day that an anti islam afd supporter committed a terrorist attack on a christmas market even
elon sure can pick them
In case someone needs to read the story:
https://www.dw.com/en/magdeburg-christmas-market-car-ramming-death-toll-rises-to-4/live-71129061
An anti-islam, ex-muslim, pro-afd, rams a car into christmas market killing atleast 4 people so far.
Are we allowed to discuss the many many benefits that society might receive if Elon Musk were in fact assassinated?
I’d be, with extremely little resistance, willing to listen to your argument. Tread heavily if you dare.
Nazis welcoming another Nazi.
Don't the conservative bobbleheads talk about evil globalist conspiracies? Like, I found it right here for you guys! It was right in front of you the whole time!
So Musk really is just going full Bond-esk super villain with world domination right? That's what this is? He doesn't have to win any election so long as he can just buy every government, which he can then ensure he owns all the money, to buy more...
The rest of the world might need to bring the US to heel. We're exporting hate and racism as a means to build fascist states around the world. Our rich are so rich and protected by the US military that they are becoming untethered from all remaining constraints about law and sovereignty for other countries.
Here be dragons.
Elon truly is the embodiment of cancer wow. First Nigel farage and now AfD.
Musk has previously questioned the party’s “far-right” label.
Shut up Musk. Your countries political center (if it existed) would count as conservative in Germany.
Our political center is far right anywhere else. Democrats are right-leaning centrists and Republicans are literal Wolfenstein Nazis
@MicroWave
He is just pissed because a Union just sued his Tesla Gigafactory in Grünheide, so he goes crying to the ones most likely to make the boo boo go away if given power.
Meanwhile Tesla sales are down in Europe 28% despite an increase in overall EV sales.
One of their supports just murdered 2 and insured 60 when he drove his car into a Christmas market...
Say goodbye to western style democracies! Say hello to Russia style pseudo-democracies!
Did people also saw Hitler like that before he got in power?
"Oh look that bozo doing shit again" and then bam, the bozo is the head of state?
I mean, have you ever really looked at him without the hindsight knowledge of what nazi germany would be like? he's so fucking lame.
He seems to not mind if someone would cut a swastika into his forehead.
