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.

No he will stop.
It costs too much money to waste continual war. It doesn't make sense to continually be at war.
He only did this because Ukraine wanted to join NATO.
And Putin didn't want NATO on his front doorstep.
You've been brainwashed by western media into thinking that he's the evil one but he's protecting his boarders from the imminent threat of NATO.
Maybe stop being so naive and think outside your box.
If your family was fighting for their lives, they'd give up a little bit of land for some security.
Of course you have no idea what that's like, because you live in your sheltered little world, behind a computer screen.
Right he will stop. Talk about being brain washed and naive!
You're regurgitating Kremlin propaganda, nato is a defense treaty.
Jfc your lack of ability to understand the situation astounds me.
Keep shilling for putin and his continuous land grabs. Keep excusing that all of this is his fault.
I pitty you.
Yeah and they call the American war machine the defence budget.
Just because it's called defence, doesn't mean they won't attack.
Don't be so naive.
They prodded the bear with threatening to join NATO. And they got the whip.
Right, and every other country who wanted to join nato? Maybe it's because they were concerned for russias consistent aggression to their neighbour's? Imagine being such a limp dick you invade another country only to be checked by what should have been a push over, and has now cost almost a million casualties, and depleting tank stocks, and to have naive people defend your aggression as if it was some sort of 5d chess move to defend yourself by showcasing how shitty your army is. Lol.
Nato is a defense agreement, against aggression like say the aggression that russia is doing.
Seriously, you naivity is showing.
