What is global news?
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

The fact that people are still supporting monarchies in 2025 is absolutely goofy. They are outright leaches.
I don't support monarchs.
But the UK monarch actually brings in more profit for the country through tourism than it costs to have the monarch.
And if they ever use their theoretical power, there will be an uprising and we will set their palace on fire.
Man just fuck off. Your opinion means nothing to us.
Monarch from one country that says it has claim over another country, says that the second country has sovereignty? What?
Where did they state they have claim over another country?
They are doing in fact the opposite.
Canada is technically a “Constitutional Monarchy” which means ultimately it’s governed under King Charles the III. That’s the part I’m saying is fucked up. A King from one country (UK) has come to Canada (another country) to remind the US of Canada’s “sovereignty”. The monarchy shouldn’t even exist, let alone have claim over a completely independent country.
Kind underscores the lack of it, no?
He looks like the fuckin scream mask lmao
Huge waste of money on this useless king
Still less than what they generate from tourism alone for existing.
