Notice how slowly step by little step extremists are pushing their agenda on the world.
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.

But wait, they say it's the gays and the Jews are the ones with the agenda??
The Swedish strike is still ongoing. The German protest against their factory is still ongoing. The cyber truck can never be approved for use on roads in all of Europe. Every fourth Tesla fails the first EU-inspection. The average for all cars is 3%, so it's exceptionally bad.
I don't think a boycott is even necessary. There are enough reasons not to buy a Tesla.
It might not be necessary to stop him from selling cars in the EU, but the symbolism of it would be fantastic.
Every fourth Tesla fails the first EU-inspection. The average for all cars is 3%, so it's exceptionally bad.
I also wouldn't buy a car from that freak for various reasons but that high failure rate at the first inspection can be at least partly explained. Tesla - unlike most manufacturers - doesn't do regular inspections on their own. Most cars are checked (and repaired!) by the dealership before they get officially checked. Therefore, the 25% aren't completely comparable to the 3%.
Interesting, so they are externalizing QA to dealerships? Do they own the dealerships?
Yes that was one of their big business model points. Saves thousands on each vehicle. Technically afaik there is no "dealership", it's their corporate store.
But do they really have those many qualified QAs to send to each dealership? I entered one of their dealership only once and the guy talking to me, and appearing to run everything in there, sounded like a cryptobro on coke, but that was in Sweden, so I may not have a good idea of the reality of things elsewhere.
At least in the US, they lock things down so heavily that they're the only one able to do most repairs, so they've got tons of people in house or for body work they'll have someone they exclusively sub-let the work to.
That makes about as much sense as shipping their vehicles without paint. Oh wait...
Top tip: if you want your local cybertruck off the road. E scooters can total them by denting the impossible to repair body panels.
There are soooooo many teslas and cyberfucks in the US. It's horrible
TBF, half the cyberfucks I see are broken down
Just ban Tesla, X and everything else owned by Elon Musk
Just ban Musk
That's the first time i've ever seen it described as "ban" but I support the sentiment.
Like full ban from society, 8 billions people not talking or interacting with you. He can have food and shelter but nothing else
As an aside, I love the irony of that speech. Musk tells the wannabe Nazis that they can forget about the sins of their (great)grandparents.
The idiots of the AFD want to forget the past simply so they can repeat it.
They want to repeat the sins of their forefathers, they just don't want to be reminded of the consequences that followed.
Still grandparents in a lot of cases. I’m 40 and my grandfather fought the Japanese in WWII.
Plenty of people left on this planet who had grandparents on every side of that war.
Or maybe your parentheses was meant to cover both.
Yeah it was.
Fuck it. I typed it. Maybe some other idiot will read it wrong.
i am that idiot <3
Hey, hey. We can start a club!
I somewhat disagree. They don't want to forget, they want to finish the job. They have immense pride in something they should feel shame for. That, I think, is the issue. The unwillingness to feel shame, so they replace that feeling with over-zealous pride.
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
And those who do, are condemned to watch the rest of them repeat it. :(
Those who do remember the past intentionally repeat it because they are fucking Nazis.
The only way for Germany to move past its Nazi history is not to forget it but to learn from it. For Germany to truly move past its guilt it must:
- Ban the AfD (they're in the process) and ensure Europe is free of fascists
- Guide Europe toward a bright free future (they are doing this)
- Protect Europe from its threats and ensure no nation will ever devisate it again (they're in the process, hopefully they can establish a federal European military)
Instead of,learning from it, the guilt from it means they support genocide in Palestine, while those in the far right want to relive it. Germanys economy is not going great, which leads to more unrest.
- Not elect the conservative party who are starting to take up most of the AfD's program and sabotage points 1 through 3 (they're failing catastrophically when looking at polls)
How can Germany force other European nations not to elect fascist parties?
Yeah, fuck Elon
Poland of all countries...
Fascists will never ever be not guilty
The EU should impose a continent-wide ban on Tesla imports (or steep tariffs eh? Why not copy the orange peel) until Tesla offloads Musk - including buying back his shares.
Any democratic society should boycott Tesla until Musk is removed from the company.
Deposed?
Divests from.. him being investee in a company should disqualify it.
it's only been 80 years, these motherfuckers can't get over the US civil war after 160 years.
As a Pole: Its funny to see hoe people in Poland is viewed by other countries vs how its actually viewed.
- Soon government starts program of subsidizing buying new EVs. Teslas are not excluded. Its basically poor financing rich's new cars.

- Main opposition party demands deposition from minister who made unfortunate slip of the tounge and didnt immediately correct herself on international conference on 80th anniversary of liberating of the largest concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. "In the territory occupied by Germany, Polish Nazis built camps that were labor camps, which later became mass extermination camps."
I'm convinced Elon's final act will be running over minorities in a Cybertruck while strung out on Ketamine.
He's right we should move past the guilt and onto whatever it is that strips modern day Nazis of their wealth for reparations.
