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.

And if you're an American there's no possibility your tax dollars help the victims or stop funding the perpetrators.
Because both of our only two options get a shit ton of political donations from Israel via AIPAC.
The few honest politicians left have spent literal decades trying to make AIPAC register as a foreign agent, but the people who decide that all take AIPAC money.
We investigated trump for Russia connections, but Israel bought both sides, so no one wants investigations into this
Biden has been paid over 5 million dollars since 1990 by pro Israel groups.
That's why he's more than happy to supply the weapons to get this pesky genocide done.
Could it be because Russia is the west's enemy and Israel is its ally?
When your ally does a genocide, do you rub their shoulders and give them missles? Or do you find new allies?
Wrt their genocide on Yeme, the US was rubbing SA shoulders and giving missiles for something like 6 years before they half stopped
Yeah we send missiles because our alliance is based on Israel's posture with Iran and has fuck all to do with Gaza. Israel could carpet bomb all of Gaza and the West Bank a dozen times over before ending our alliance affected Israel's posture with Gaza. So, as to Gaza, dropping our support is dropping our leverage. Sorry this doesn't fit your wildly out of touch and frankly childish narrative.
You’re not wrong about the motivations, but the ends should never justify the means. America’s unwavering support of Israel has led to a huge amount of blowback over the past 70 years
Good boy, defend the genocide so that the US can maintain their colony in the middle east.
Hey! Don't shoot the messenger. You're the one living in Fantasyland
With allies like that, who needs enemies?
