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.

Serious question: Do you think anybody would listen? There have been multiple former members of the White House staff and Cabinet you have come out with scathing tell-alls. Then there are the multiple communications leaks. Then outright just stating that they are going to do the thing.
I'm pretty sure we are well past the point of revealing his true end goals and ending him right there
Look man. If my favorite football team sucks and makes shitty deals for players and has a losing record, I'm still going over the top saying they're gonna beat our main rivals and are the best ever. Hell I don't even need to understand why they suck or what they could even do to get better. They're my team! I can't let you talk shit about them.
Probably not but I'd enjoy the hour but of course I wouldn't actually resort to hurting him if possible.
I do want to know if he is actually a Russian Asset though.
Unless your EEG looks like a topographical map of Iowa, you should be jumping at him almost immediately or you'll go insane. I cannot imagine the torture of listening to him talk for an hour without being able to physically make it stop.
I'm a bit of a sociopath what he says doesn't really bother me I'd just be interested in getting the truth out of him.
I don't want to hurt him mainly due to the legal system. As I don't want the consequences but I would push the limits until he talked a lot.
I'm N Irish so I think he'd get I was serious and start talking almost immediately due to the accent and the various drills/saws scattered around. If he doesn't he would regret it even though I'd keep him alive. I don't want to be a killer but he has a hell of a lot of explaining to do in my opinion and zi seriously want to know whose pulling his strings.
Bold of you to assume he knows who is pulling his strings.
That's something I'm sure would become clearer with questioning whether it's Putin, vance or someone else.
It's probably no one that either you or Trump has heard of.
