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.

I know who you are now, you are the one who claimed that because you are gay you were automatically right, while I responded it may actually cloud your judgement on the issue.
Man that was months ago, and you still carry that around? Thinking my comment was anti gay when it was nothing of the sort.
Maybe I'll just block you, because you are too weird for me.
I don’t know that you’re talking about, but if you think that’s how any of our past interactions have gone than you’ve secured my opinion of you.
You should block me, because you’re tagged. If you don’t like being constantly reminded of various ill comments I’ve seen you post, then blocking me is a smart choice.
And you claim you are not obsessed.
🤣 🤡
Did I claim that? 💋
Wow, you don't even remember what you responded a few hours ago!
I wrote:
And you responded:
So yes you did claim that.
I remember you clearly now, you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic.
And by your own admittance you like so much to hold a grudge that you tag people to get back at them.
That's just so pathetic.
Prove it
Funny you ask for proof, when I just gave you proof on your previous question:
You did the exact same thing last time ad nauseam, you just go on and on questioning another thing when something was just proven to you. No I'm not going to prove it, because this was months ago, and I don't care to dig through hundreds of posts to find your stupid posts to present them to you again.
If you can̈́t remember, why do you choose to keep this grudge going. That's your problem.
The part about holding a grudge by your own admittance, is shown right here in this thread for everyone to see.
But as is typical for you, you just say "prove it" without stating exactly what it is you want proof of.
When I write: "you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic. "
You are welcome to interpret that as merely my opinion. And obviously I can't prove an opinion.
That's like being asked to prove a color is pretty.
Again a clear symptom of your flawed logic, and assumption that people will understand what you mean, even when you fail to provide the necessary specifics.
Aren’t you arguing your opinion based on no evidence and flawed logic? (Yes) You refuse to provide evidence, your only logic is attempting to discredit me (like I care), and you seem pretty pissed off for an innocent person.
Sweet dreams.
