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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Yeah I watched videos of inside the re-education camps and the conditions the people were languishing in in their prison cells.
China has an absolutely horrendous track record of human rights, even for their own citizens as they consider them an expendable resource in their country-sized factory
I dont know you from a bar of soap, so im just going to assume you're a chinese plant designed to spread disinformation on the topic because EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. This topic comes out, all the chinese apologists come out of the woodwork to say it's all fake, but everytime a chinese national tries to tell the world about the organ harvesting, they're immediately shot down by a horde of misinformers like they're waiting for the word "uyghur" or "Xin Jiang" come up.
You yourself seem to have a weird hard-on for bringing up Uighurs arbitrarily when it has zero to do with the subject of the post. Perhaps then you shouldn't throw stones in your glass house and accuse others of waiting to arbitrarily pounce on the word "Xin Jiang", when you obviously do the same thing for the word "China".
Argue your point instead of automatically assuming everyone who doesn't agree with you is a Chinese plant. That just makes you look whiny and weak, and brings no one around to your standpoint.
It's always deflection with your type, sn't it...
Instead of owning up to the crimes against humanity and standing with your fellow man, it's "go look in your own backyard! !!! Don't watch what we're doing to minorities!!!!" Complemented with minsofrmation and disinformation campaigns.
And yes, I have a hard-on for holding countries to account for their human rights abuses, but go off queen, tell me how I look weak and whiny while you simp for billionaires who'll throw you in the gulag before they get held accountable.
