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.

Look, they're out of missiles to shoot into the ocean and they blew up all the roads between them and the South. They've got to do something to get attention.
Look, everyone knows you blow up all the roads into your enemies territory, then you declare war and invade.
It adds a difficulty modifier to your XP bonus pool.
After each ten war declaration punches, you get a free frozen yogurt.
That’s good!
The yogurt contains megalomaniacal dictators
That's bad!
It comes with a free choice of topping!
That's good!
"Alright, that's it! It's super-duper double-dog war times infinity, no backsies!"
Technically I think North Korea is at war with the US, not South Korea. To declare war against South Korea would imply they believe there is a legitimate government to declare war against, whereas I believe they just view it as an American occupation.
Also wouldn’t be surprised if a standard DGI drone would be perceived as military grade compared to their equipment.
Right? The one started in 1950 ended with a ceasefire but there was never a treaty ending the hostilities.
I guess they mean ending the ceasefire and a return to active wartime hostilities but the way they say it is certainly funny.
War after sending troops to die in Ukraine and after selling their barely working ammunition to Russia. Yeah dude, sure. Whatever.
Everyone knows you send your special forces thousands of miles away when you’re ready to declare a border war
Depends on the exact meaning of "special" in this case, I would say.
Didn’t they just blow up some railways on their side that would help get supply’s and troops to their border? Good timing
Ah, you see, we received intel from China that the South's first order of business when they invade us is to destroy these railways. Now we, as to be one step ahead as always, decided to take preliminary actions. This is how you disrupt enemy planning, watch and learn you people.
Oops
That was a retaliation for the alleged drone.
This article is old news.
Drones famously require roads to travel. This is a real blow for the south.
Some articles claimed it was mostly meant symbolic.
Did Russia promise to back them on this thing if they send people in the ~~meat grinder~~ small military operation against Ukraine?
Or is it just that time of the month again?
Under the Russian agreement, North Korea will send 10,000 troops to North Korea and supply ammunition to itself.
Stop teasing me Daddy Jong-un, get your dick out and let's fuck already.
Sooo... "Monday"?
Checks calendar... Yup. Monday.
You're several time zones behind me. How is it Monday for you already?
Korea. ;)
Can confirm. Currently in Korea and it sure feels really Mondayee.
In Best Korea, it is whatever day Dear Supreme Leader says it is. Reality is for westerners.
you made me scared
They'd have to declare peace first. They've got an armistice but the war is still technically active. Anyway they should focus on how many of their people are going to die in the near future when they find out how much experience the Ukrainian military has which they do not.
Can someone explain to that lard bucket, that he is at war with South Korea already?
DOUBLE WAR!
I was under the impression war was never officially called off there and so while no fighting is happening the war is still ongoing. If so would this be like double war? Maybe they have been under double secret war for awhile and it only is just coming to light like after otter had sex with wormers wife.
No, it would be war squared.
Or maybe war(war());
…they’re technically still at war… so… 🙄
In Perun's latest vid, he mentions that SK have a publicly stated plan to take out NK 'top leadership' in the event of war.
nothing to see here :)
The amount of fart sniffing in this thread is baffling. Like 20 people all saying "umm actually they're still technically at war" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Is kim suicidal wtf
