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.
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.

I think the only thing Putler can get away with is Crimea, but that would require him to accept all the other terms set by Ukraine.
There's only one way that this should end, and it's not on Putin's terms.
Let's see what Putin says when Ukraine takes back Crimea.
Would someone please show this man the window?
he famously avoids windows of any kind, he hides in palaces and bunkers. and dont forget he has 10-40m tables.
Oh nooooooooooooooo…….
More like : Nyyeeeeeeeeeeeet
..
He further claimed that Russian military units are advancing every day.
My suspicion is that Ukraine can afford to slowly yield farmland for longer than Russia can afford to give up energy infrastructure, at present rates.
Yeah historically the person winning is always asking for peace talks. Duh. Clearly Russia is winning so hard that they feel bad.
Let’s base it on tomorrow’s oil refinery instead
Can someone just kill Putin already?! I can’t think of many who deserve a bullet to the head more than this psychopath.
I can think of one
I still think that, when one goes, the life expectancy of the other will also be drastically shortened.
we surely can afford two bullets, even in these times
You can go literally anywhere in the world and say "I eagerly await the day he dies" and people will immediately know with high certainty who you're talking about. That hasn't been a thing since Hitler.
And you know what, that's his own doing. That his true legacy. He's the new comparison point for evil.
There's definitely an argument to be made. Really they're just two sides of the same coin.
Two cheeks of the same oligarchic ass.
It's freaking telling, when I'm getting spam in Russian, telling me about "A $1439 reward from Trump." LMAO.
Hahaha. Lol. They're losing ground, their oil infrastructure keeps exploding, and they want to go back to the prior terms?
Wtf... Just fucking shave it off man. 🤷♂️
Putin is desperate but still trying to save face lol. Keep pounding 'em, Ukraine!
"Sorry can't hear you, Pooty. Your munitions cooking off and your bridges crumbling deep within your borders are too loud!"
Ukraine initialed an agreement to keep the peace and Russia invaded. Ukraine now is expected go with that old agreement after all the pain inflicted?
just fucking stop the war man
