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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

What’s my responsibility as an American stuck in this shithole as someone who is poor and has no resources? Should I go try to off the Nazi lord here and immediately get killed to then go on and make no difference whatsoever and die in vain? Maybe I could get in a car crash on the way there and then lose my sources of income while in the hospital and end up homeless due to medical debt and die of a minor infection face down in a gutter!
Sounds like you are already in precarious condition... if that did not make you act, I doubt you would for a bunch of murdered school girls in a country you likely cannot place on a map
And what am I supposed to do beyond what I have already been doing in resistance?
have you been doing anything? if so, why are you upset that a random stranger says you are not... I am obviously not talking about you if you are indeed fighting in resistance
Because people keep saying stuff like you are saying while there are shitloads of us out resisting, protesting, getting killed, getting abducted, etc and when you say things like that, it takes a big massive shit on all the resistance that we have already been putting forth.
There is a HUGE world wide frustration with the USA because of all obvious reasons...
And sorry but while you have managed to organize some large walks, you always seem to be doing it on weekends to ensure there is zero disruption and thus easily ignored by the Pedophile's regime.
To this day, there doesn't seem to be any serious call for a General Strike (a non-violent protests that actually may accomplish something)
Sorry if I do not seem to be recognizing your efforts but you can imagine, if you are frustrated because people don't recognize you have walked in 2 large marches (I think, there only been 2, except Minnesota)... imagine how we all feel when our lives, livelihoods, independence, etc are threatened by a pedophile we did not elect into office twice
Yeah, I feel your sentiments. I wish people would fucking get going out here. We need armed resistance and serious withholding of labor, stalling the economy, and tax striking. And blasting some evil pieces of shit in the street. These extreme measures need to happen but without numbers, the extreme gets swallowed up really quick by the system.
Now we are talking!
