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.

Any article that quotes an anonymous account on Social Media must be obligated to prove it is not a Bot, beyond a reasonable doubt, before I'm going to take it seriously. FFS, for all we know, the person who wrote that was working for Newsweek at the time.
Similarly, some hardliners
Anyone we'd recognize? No? Just anonymous randos, then?
I swear to god, if 4chan hadn't imploded last week, we'd be getting Greentext in the headlines.

> Report a story about other religious groups having hot takes on the Pope dying.
> F to pay respects :(

> Randos are all over it. Apparently they didn't like the guy.
> They're mad a guy from a different religion was humane about it and not trying to start a holy war.
> They're throwing around words like "crusader" hoping for another holy war because they're bored and missed the first one.
> And I get paid to post their stupid meaningless opinions.

What's this about 4chan imploding?
You can't kill 4chan, it's not a website, it's a part of us all
Abrahamic religions are brain rot.
Religion will keep us belligerently within its clutches forever, won't it?
It's the whole point of religion, so yes.
As long as there's a state...
Is this literally the only thing you know how to type? Jesus dude...
Anatomy of the State right once again.
All religions are not the same and they come in many flavors.
Some religions in some flavors cause immense suffering though.
Fundamentalist parts of it is the one that causes suffering
Extremism is usually against the fundamentals of many religions. The whole terminology is wrong to begin with.
Take the example of American Evangelists. Do they go to the fundamentals of Jesus preaching according to the bible? Take everything you have and give to the poor? Rather an Elephant goes through the eye of a needle than a rich man reaching heaven? Tossing over tables of trade in the temples as the places of worship should not be places of commerce and greed? Refraining from violence wherever possible?
In the same wake the people quoted regarding Shiasm. The Quran says you should not bother with that. Also it is core to understand that noone except Allah knows what is in the heart of a person and noone except Allah will judge on who goes to hell and who goes to paradise.
English translation of the meaning:
[6:159] Surely they who divided their religion into parts and became sects, you have no concern with them; their affair is only with Allah, then He will inform them of what they did.
So being extremist shouldnt be called fundamentalist, as you need to violate some or many fundamentals to become extreme.
Nah, they're all pretty shit
