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.

I correctly predicted that you would accept no evidence. You were always arguing in bad faith.
And as I said in my edit, you missed the “and” in my request:
“go ahead and point to a single person here that claimed to be a centrist and has provenly supported genocide“
You simply went to your clipboard and copy pasted your go-to “evidence” to support your nonsense.
None of those people claim to be a centrist. THAT is what your accusation is based on:
A CENTRIST - supporting genocide.
So either you have a reading comprehension problem, or you are willfully arguing in bad-faith. If it’s the latter- that’s essentially trolling.
I dug around in the modlog. Picked a few names I remembered.
Few centrists do. You want them to come right out and announce that they are both centrists and that they support genocide? Do you suppose they're leftists?
And there you have what is possibly the closest anyone will get you to admitting you are full of shit. You don’t know whether or not they are centrists, and therefore can’t accuse them of being centrists. You just seem to enjoy carpet bombing lemmy with false accusations, because you know that if someone calls you out, you can just side-step and bad faith your way out of it.
Now I know you need to have the last word, so- you’re welcome to it. Go ahead and make it a good one, but I’m done having this discussion with you.
Disclaimer: “This discussion” has been emboldened to emphasize the fact that it is this particular discussion that I am done with, as evident in your comment history and modlogs- you seem to love rewriting what people say, and turning it on them as a defense mechanism. I’ve argued and debated with hundreds of different versions of you. I know how you roll. So, in the future, if I ever respond to your rhetoric again, you don’t get to use this against me by saying “I thought you done with me! See! You are a liar!”
Pretty sad this needs to be said. But that’s where we are.
Have a good day.
