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. 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.

Israeli academics? Believe it or not, Hamas!
It takes literally 5 minutes navigation "Israel" history to find out it is a genocide based project. They literally calling to build "Jew state" on a land where other people lives. And the more you read the more fucked up it gets. So academic should be doing better ! This been going for 2 years, and the pretend the plan wasn't genocide since British Christian Zionist came up with the idea as early as 1580..
Like you can't even imagine this shit..
Look it really doesn't matter what some crazy people thought in 1580 or 1844. Trying to condemn the entire modern-day nation of Israel and its inhabitants is on par with calling all of Gaza terrorists.
I'm not saying Israel doesn't have deeply rooted colonialism nor that we shouldn't study its history, but making blanket judgements about entire peoples based on random historical nitpicks, is the weapon of the enemy.
Is not random nitpicks, it is the root of what we see today and what we will see tomorrow. If this is the root of why European pushed Jew from their land in Europe, then indoctrinate them slowly over the years to believe this is their land and they can "kill every human, animal, and trees" then no wonder we have estimated 80% of the population support the genocide of the Palestinian people.
It does because it add context to the reason why occupation and genocide is still happening
You attempting to erase the history of a racial supremacist movement is part of the problem.
ALL MODERN DAY ZIONISM is the belif in a racially pure jewish ethnostate in control of the holy land.
Until ZIONIST idology is shamed out of public society, until ZIONIST politicians are barred from power, they will keep committing the same atrocities.
after the formation of a large army in the wake of the establishment of the state, we will abolish partition and expand to the whole of Palestine - ben gurion first israeli prime minister before arab decided to attack
Wonder if Palestine academics are secretly against Hamas too
Everyone in Palestine is Hamas to Israelis. You can tell because they're trying to final solution them all as we speak.
