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.

All imperial countries like china spy on each other
It's not limited to any kind of country. They all spy.
Capitalism loves more capitalism. Capitomunism? Comitalism?
china doesnt sponsor coups on other countries
Taiwan.
tell me about the chinese sponsored coup in taiwan
Ohh sorry, it wasn't sponsored, it's just sometime a political party of a country decided that it's a good idea to join up as a lesser state with a bigger country that bully them over and over and will never let other country or organisation to recognise them as their own country, just like there's group in Canada that totally didn't sponsored by foreign entities willing to push for being a lesser, 51st state.
Ohh sorry those countries and organisation isn't pressured by China to not recognise Taiwan as a country, they do it in their own free will.
Sorry about that, there's totally nothing wrong with China and China is very clean state with no abuse of human right, they totally didn't do nothing to Uyghurs and there's totally nothing happened in Tibet too. It's a good ~~emperor~~ government trying to spread their goodness across the world.
the us and every other first world country has recognized taiwan as part of china since at least the 70s. the literal reagan era. yet we have them sponsoring a pro western government in taiwan.
there isnt one chinese tragedy real or invented that is worse than what the us is doing today. problem here is not really china. the us has done what you claim to the entirety of latin america and never a peep about it. they are sponsoring an actually real genocide in the middle east as we speak.
Spying doesn't necessarly mean trying to do a coup
yeah but imperialism necessarily means couping other countries.
Not always even economical control is considered imperialsm. Thst's how the usa control Canada and many other countries
