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.
-
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.

Let us know by what time you think China will invade Taiwan.
When that year comes and the invasion doesn't happen, either admit you're wrong or double-down.
he said source.
as in, reason us why? china has clearly expressed this desire over Taiwan, why wouldn't it invade ever at all on a timeline?
I don't care what he said.
How much time needs to pass before you admit you're wrong?
Wow, you didn't just move the goal posts, you shipped them cross state.
And that ratio, yikes!
Dang, you're really dedicated to this.
Lol, gonna block you now. Getting annoying seeing you reply to all my posts.
Do you really lack self-awareness? lol
I don't click on people's profiles then respond to all their posts, lol.
Gonna block you too, though. Thanks for the reply.
There's this thing, it's called, "scrolling down", when reading a conversation topic.
Nice attempt to 'Kill the Messenger' though.
It's called normal scrolling, and seeing your next comment.
Actually, this is not the first time you told me you were blocking me. Please try to get it right this time.
If you can't handle disagreement with your opinions, move on, or stick your head in the sand, aka block.
then shut the fuck up you unanswering cunt. lmfao what arrogance
What's wrong with you?
I'm allergic to bullshit
Alright. Let me know when China invades Taiwan and then I can admit when I'm wrong.
When that happens, we'll all be worrying about other very more important things than your fragile ego, to take the time to let you know.
these reditgrants are sure pain in the ass.
i just asked for proof and they started blabbing. at the same time these hypocrites also dislike religions.
Generally speaking, you should consider that some of them are actually bots/shills sowing unrest to shape a narrative.
Okay. 10 years. 20? How much time needs to pass before you admit when you're wrong?
When do you think China is going to invade Taiwan? 1000 years from now? Lol.
While they been talking about it for a long time, true, what's change is that in recent times they've been building up their military forces a lot, and doing very political/military moves in the waters between them. They're definitely ramping up on their actions and/or responses, signaling, probing. And this is new.
How far that escalation goes, nobody knows, but usually if somebody says they're going to do something, you should take them at their word that they're going to do what they said they were going to do, at some point in time.
