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.

> wants population growth
> strongly opposes immigration
Or you know, providing time, money, and a place to raise a family.
Or you know a culture that supports an equitable division of domestic tasks.
The country’s fucked and it’s too late for any it massive immigration and naturalization programs to save it.
"Hey guys, here's a dating app that fix all the problems we cultivated over generations of short-sighted traditions." I agree, they're fucked and the fall is going to hurt.
Immigration is a bandaid fix for work culture problems. People will have families and kids if they have the time and money.
Nah.
I could show up, have babies with 100 Japanese women, and then it's back to America after my 2 week vacation ends.
Japan, all you gotta do is pay for my travel, and lost wages from not being at work. Oh I'll be at work alright. Working your entire female populace!!! YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!
..........look, times are tough. Just let me have my fantasy, ok?
YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! Look at all the Japanese women I get!!!!
looks around
eats a sandwich
YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! GRILLED CHEESE!!!!
gross
What's gross about grilled cheese?
Man idk, maybe he's never really had a good grilled cheese. ¯\(°_o)/¯
Immigration is now relaxed, but now nobody wants to come because the Yen has devalued so much.
Immigration is for the capitalist class interest not the peoples.
In its current form, I agree, but national borders only exist to cause inequality.
