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.

I see these every day now... is literally anything being done by anyone that matters, or are these the stories we will see until no one is left? I'm really confused why retaliation is impossible against war crimes.
What is needed are new Nuremberg Tribunal trials for both Israeli and Russian war criminals.
"i'll show those genociders whats what by voting for jill stein!!"
-morons
The idf terrorists always shot innocent palestinians . You will blame everything on jill. You are so ridiculous
the woman who has been arrested for protesting the genocide is responsible for said genocide, because she got a few votes that could have gone to the President financing and enabling the genocide, or worse, the other president who is in favour of the genocide?
edit: I'm pointing how stupid it is to blame her,
Even if all third parties voted for harris she would still lost. Stop blaming other for your cult loss. Only the voters who voted for the two cult giving billions of dollars to israel and unlimited persecusion and diplomatic cover.
You also serm very happy about the genocide continuing despite palestinians in gaza not having the right to vote in the united snake election
i think my sarcasm wasn't clear,
It's just plain stupid to blame the genocide on the only candidate that was against it, who got so few votes she didn't even influence anything.
Sure this genocide is the fault of the small number of protest voters and not you know the Israeli state and its enablers in Germany, Britain and the US in both the Biden and Trump regimes.
she's been charged for attacking a police officer during a Gaza protest.
not saying you should vote for her,
just that she's busy between election cycles but the media completely ignores her.
