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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

All these reports beg the question… have they found a country that ISN’T carrying out covert schemes in Canada?
Norway concluded our covert schemes after we won "Biggest statue of a moose"
Watch yourself or were gonna allocate additional funding to beat you guys in biathalon

That's what you get when you put your country on sale to the highest bidder.
Comoros?
I'm sure a bunch of tiny countries are only carrying out overt campaigns (e.g. island nations advertising tourism).
But yeah, nearly every country is engaging in some level of worldwide propaganda.
They think they’re exempt from any rules. They’ll rape your kids to prove their point.
They think they’re exempt from any rules
They also are but they also think they are
That's their entire world view. They have to follow 613 rules from God, and lots of them believe that if there's a loophole to how the rule is written that's ordained by God as well, since he's perfect he wouldn't make mistakes with his own rules.
They do it to their most holy book... Everything else is fair game.
They demonstrably are and they'll kill you if you try to change that then rape your loved ones and laugh
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck!
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then ~~it probably is a duck~~ anyone calling it a duck is antisemitic.
