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.

For the sake of truth, those who flew planes into the WTC on September 11 also had mental health problems. You have to be insane to believe that when you kill and die you will go to heaven where 72 virgins will be waiting for you.
Pretty sure it wasn't the virgins that convinced them, and more like fighting back against an empire that was actively killing their people. Not defending their actions, just trying to curb back the blatant islamaphobia from your comment.
It is not Islamophobia per se, it is "Religion (Chrisianity, Islam, ...) is just a bullshit story for people with ...". That was just a example of people with ...
If NDE research tells us anything, once they’ve died crashing their plane, they likely have to experience the pain and suffering of those they killed, along with the pain and suffering of the loved ones who have to endure the tragedy.
To paraphrase, "when you're dead you don't know you're dead and it's not hard for you. It's hard for your loved ones. Same thing when you're stupid.".
The worst part is if they got the gender and age wrong for the paradise virgins. Turns out its only guys and old men who underwent suicide missions. Both virgins too
Even the Afterlife is subject yo the juisdiction of Supply and Demand
”What if its ten? And then we have to split them between us?!
And the fixation with virgins just screams how unsecure they are, fearing any comparison. I'd rather have 72 women who know what they want and know what they are good at.
