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.

Mexico has their first woman president while we have the first convicted felon.
Actually, he made himself first woman president as well - https://mashable.com/article/trump-executive-order-sex-female-male-gender
It's been 2 days and I'm so fing tired already.
The theory that I heard that made the most sense is that he thinks by renaming it he can circumvent the Biden ban on new oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.
Why would he need to do this? We have a Republican president, congress, and house of reps. Plus the SCOTUS is on his side.
Seems they just need to write up a quick retraction of that and just pass it.
If that's actually true that's fucking hilarious and really depressing that our legal system could theoretically be worked around so comically. That's like Scooby Doo levels of bullshit.
Stupid fucking circus
Retardo Mr. T didn't pay attention in school because his dady paid for it. Otherwise he would know the definition of a gulf (not golf), and that it doesn't imply possession.
What, is he goanna rename NewMexico to NewAmerica? Cuz that is something he could try. Maybe California should be now called Smokyfirefornia? Cali is from "caliente" or hot. But California is not just hot, its on fire! Oh but is we must keep it Spanish... Humofuegornia. Just bringing up a few examples of more logical changes within his abuse of power.
Maybe Florida could go by "sharknadoida" or Hurricorida. Texas would an easy change to California, it's fucking hot there. Alabama could be Notobama or just Racistama.
Just examples. I could name Mexico like Druxico. But I got no jurismydicktion there.
No, Spanish has been banned. From now on, Los Angeles shall be known as The Angels, Las Vegas as The Meadows, Florida as Blossomed, Nevada as Snowfall...
Patriotic Americans 🇺🇸: Make canada not exist again. Get the 51st state which will double the size of the U.S.. Get their natural ressources. Normal Americans 😑 : Ok bro, Silence Me 😳: Wtf
Most patriotic.
Everyone at UCSD....now they live near The Jewel. And the racists in El Cajon, you guys win! Now you live in " The Box".
National City, you keep your name, well done!
But you Chulavista...now you're CuteView, enjoy!
And San Ysidro...now you're Saint Ysidro unless they want a different take like Saint Javalin. That's a manly name.
And the SantaFe station... Now is the Saint Faith station! Yey!
San Diego... Now you will go by Saint Diego... Again if that's where Big T wants to go...maybe just "Richasscity"? Or maybe move the city so they can expand the airport? Super important airport Lindberg always blocked by high rise buildings that take away from its importance.
Next time there's an oil spill it'll be a "Gulf of Mexico" instead of "Gulf of America" problem I bet.😆
Meanwhile Florida press releases are using the "Gulf of America" phrase in critical communications which will just confuse and potentially kill people when they need important information the most.
I respect President Sheinbaum. I do not respect Insurrectionist Trump. I’d rather the United Corporations of America become Mexican territory right now.
They have universal Healthcare too, so it would definitely be a win
Some of you can join Canada, some Mexico, and the rest left to rot.
Remember, this loud stupid shit is meant to distract from the important shit.
I don't respect my own nation enough anymore to care what we call locations. Nice to see other nations don't respect our dictates either.
Personally I think things like this help let me know how much of a dumbass someone is. If I hear someone call it that, I know not to trust any information that ever comes out of their mouth again because they are an absolute dumbass.
Has the US ever really been worth any level of respect?
When they helped ending the second world war. We in Europe will forever be grateful that the US (and the other countries) helped us end the war.
Lol, settle down.
No, I mean really. Our entire history is basically just us abusing one minority group after another.
World War 2, NASA...
There were moments in its history when it maybe wasn't as bad as the competition, but it's not been great of late
No, not really.
That's not how naming things work.
I picture him trying to hide the word Mexico with his small hands.
or sharpie illustrations?
