A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Enemies of freedom the globe over. The death cult needs to learn the world isn't theirs.
We should just give them Mars. It'll even fit their creation myth nicely. Earth will simply be the garden they were asked politely, but firmly, to leave.
Considering Mars is completely and utterly uninhabitable I support this idea as long as we can fling the billionaires bankrolling them, too.
This is exactly what happened last time. When Europe did that whole colonize everything shit the first groups were government funded expiditions and the second groups were religious minorities who were too "extra" for the rest of their country.
This is exactly how we got Massachusetts and Pennsylvania.
Yes, imperialism is a death cult from korea to ukraine to palestine and all around the world.
You're right! Death to China!
Christians - the Romans had it right. Well, most religions that preach that there is only one truth and that all must follow it. Religion is either the instigator or the tool for many things that are wrong in this world - the whole damn Middle East, the Taliban, the US GOP, Russia, sex scandal daily from the Catholic Church and Evangelicals, climate change denial, etc.
Letting people spew their nonsense because it's their "firm belief" is societal suicide and we are watching it happen.
Romans were a literal slave society. It's no surprise when people in the imperial core worship them. That's their purpose in western mythology.
Exactly what I would do if I lived next to a crazy neighboring country with WOMDs. I would go out there and show just how little I care about other people's happiness. Because that would help things 😉. I bet half of those people are bi and the others are gay too. Probably just a leader who's daughter came out as bi and they don't want to accept the fact so they gotta ruin other people's lives.
