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.

WWIII here we come!
I'm pretty sure ww3 was already started by stuxnet. Have you not seen the news lately regarding cyber crime/espionage/attacks?
Enlighten us.
I'm being serious, not sarcastic, i really do want to know.
we are already in the warm up for ww3 since the fucking russians invaded parts of ukraine and want to conquer big parts of europe...
I was talking about the cyber crime/ espionage attacks.
And I'm pretty sure it's the US plus assorted allies agression that is inflaming tensions around the world.
you think west ist responsible for the atrocities the russians started 2014? LOL!
Yes
are you on crack or just a stupid tankie?
Damn, don't project so hard.
A source, just for you. Not that i think you would even care about it:
https://responsiblestatecraft.org/new-us-strikes-yemen-houthis/
The article talks about NATO expansionism as the main cause for the flare ups in Ukraine and Russia, even before 2014. It has linked sources in the article.
This article is about that terrorist group and not about the russian fucks and their legend about any nato promises...
give me a direct link to an article or fuck off, I'm not reading trough pages of possible tankie propaganda.
Apologies, it was the wrong article. This is the correct article:
https://responsiblestatecraft.org/russia-ukraine-nato-expansion/
Now kindly fuck off.
So Putin is threatening the countries bordering Russia, provoking civil wars and manipulating their governments. Some of these former Soviet countries are turning to NATO for protection and Russia now feels threatened after all this aggression and is blaiming the west for beeing such a cunt?
😂 This Article is full of shit and Russia can fuck right off. They are not the victim here, they are the fucking agressor.
The article has actual sources that prove that US agression and also via their nato vassals is the cause of what happened in 2014 up until now.
When Russia tried to reach out to be more integrated with Western Europe they were continually rebuffed on orders from the US.
There was no reason for this of course, the USSR already dissolved. No reason besides the US trying to prevent a united Europe.
But anyway, i know you're going to spew psychotic verbal diarrhea again, so I'm out.
Finally! Bye tankie.
Then you are a hopeless person.

But you do you mr "hopeless person"
Edit: the correct link: https://responsiblestatecraft.org/russia-ukraine-nato-expansion/
NATO expansionism meaning "independent countries seeking to join NATO because they fear getting attacked by Russia and Russia being mad about it"
Yeah sure mr Geopolitics. Link your articles that I'll never read anyways. I know the situation on the ground. How people would refuse service to you if you tried to talk in russian (saying "try speaking polish, we don't like the (russian) language here"). How much hate there was for Russia in Ukraine. The only reason there was no "tension" was because there was a puppet installed that licked Russia's behind. Then Ukraine revolted, and in return they got immediately invaded. But why the hell am I wasting my time explaining this to a tankie.
