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.

The danger isn’t understated—it’s packaged, sold, and weaponized. Fear is a commodity, and those in power have mastered the art of monetizing it while pretending to care. The UN’s environmental pantomime is just another act in the theater of control, where the narrative is carefully curated to keep you compliant while they rake in profits.
If anything, the truth is buried under layers of performative concern and corporate handshakes. They’re not lying to downplay the danger; they’re lying to maintain their grip on the system that created it. The real threat isn’t climate collapse alone—it’s the machinery that exploits it for power.
Stop defending the script. Start questioning who’s writing it.
Holy shit your output is juvenile.
I wondered why I didn't get a notification when you replied. It's because I've blocked you sometime ago.
Hey gee whiz such a random question but do you think Russia broke international law by invading Ukraine? That Putin is a shit and he should be held responsible in international court for all the crimes against humanity he's committed and caused others to commit?
If you're not a Russian shill, don't avoid the question and just answer yes and we can move on. If you are though, you'll get frustrated and equivocate bullshit while avoiding the answer and then afterwards start demanding that "you've already answered".
Look at their posts. They all basically follow the same format and length. Clearly LLM generated.
I get more like pretentious naive teenager who's got into reading about ideology and has gotten fooled by moronic propaganda because of their ignorance.
But I've no idea the extent to which people have customise LLM output. It just... doesn't feel as condescending. More just ignorant. LLM's are rarely that assertive in my experience. I understand my experience may be misleading me, but...
