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.

And the Western world has shown its true face: that of a degenerate accomplice of barbarism.
Came here to say this. Just wait till Trump loses the house majority next year. We’re in for a fun 2027.
I just love that I can post the picture without text and it's understood.
Hard to disagree with that unless you're a delusional piece of shit
The US is complicit. Why are so many of our politicians puppets for Netanyahu. Could also explain why many don't want the Epstein files released.
Epstein and Maxwell had ties to Israeli intelligence for decades
I wish I knew. I wish there was some kind of leak that would explain it. I always assumed it was some stupid CIA shit that says we have to have "presence" in the middle east no matter what, even if we have to support a very obvious genocide. Or a more general explanation like the sickest motherfucking psychos have control of the world.
"Israel is the largest American aircraft carrier in the world that cannot be sunk, does not carry even one American soldier, and is located in a critical region for American national security."
~Alexander Haig
There's your explanation, no secret CIA shit needed. Our economy runs on oil and the Middle East got it.
Also no secret, AIPAC has bought our entire political structure. Hell, they don't even need to spend, just scream "anti-Semite" at anyone screaming "genocide!".
And it is amazing how many pieces of shit are out there. Shane on all the governments just going along with it.
The way everyone is going on about punching Nazis in the face, you would think that it's start catching on with people denying this tragedy.
Britain was only a little surprising, but surprising none the less. Peoples need to start holding these shit filled bags to account
evil mfs will excuse anything as long as they can pin it on hamas
“Worst crime of the 21st Century” , so far!
Lol .... I was hoping to see this comment ... thanks!
So far. Humanity still has lots of 21st century to ruin after all, and that's not even counting the planetary climate disaster.
Meanwhile, The NY Times considered this breaking news that I needed to be immediately notified about:
Not to argue semantics, but the genocide didn't start this century.
no one said it did:
it can still be the worst crime of this century, because last century had even worse crimes at the same time as this one.
Yeah it's just semantics, but I think it's important to point out this has been ongoing for a long time
I cant take these pictures of starving children and infants. It makes me want to die
I mean it's bad, but what about how scared all the Zionists are of the starving children?
i totally agree, I'm going to say that a lot.
…so far.
True, but I think they've at least got "worst crime in the early 21st century" in the bag.
