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.

First they came for the >!socialists!< democrats, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a >!socialist!< democrats.
Then they came for the >!trade unionists!< journalist, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a >!trade unionist!< journalist.
Then they came for the >!Jews!< Gays, and I did not speak out— Because I was not >!a Jew!< gay.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
They already came for communists.
Udaltsov is a communist only if you think that the Soviet Union was communist. The reason for his constant arrests was his opposition to Putin.
I originally wanted to post recent arrest of communists, but didn't find it in first try. Anyway, no sane communist will support Putin.
EDIT: Interesting... I wanted to say that Putin arrests communists too.

All very deep, except the Russians probably arrest or kill anyone who speaks out, so it's not exactly as simple as that.
And the Nazis didn't?
The Nazis didn't kill their own. So no, not initially
You should really brush up on your history. It's estimated that up to 77,000 Germans who were a part of the resistance were executed and an additional 800,000 were arrested. You're right that Nazis didn't kill other Nazis, they killed Germans who resisted Nazism.

Oh, come on, it was a lawless land ruled by violence. Everybody could find themselves before a firing squad (after a few days of relentless torture, of course) or just be beaten to death, party membership wasn't a guarantee against this. That was pretty intentional. That was the Nazi idea of a proper society - absolute despotism, they were also huge fans of the Middle-Eastern examples of such.
If you spoke out against the regime, you could easily be imprisoned or executed, blonde hair and blue-eyes or not.
The fuck is this bullshit?!.. It's as if some American schoolboy of the dumber kind with a confederate flag on the wall thinking Wehrmacht was "honorable" and didn't know shit wrote this.
Also have you read what the judge said on Remarque's sister's trial, after which she was executed?
Something like "your brother regrettably has evaded us, but you haven't." That was the only reason.
I think you should also read something about courts in Nazi Germany. There wasn't even any pretense at justice.
Are you historically illiterate or a troll?
It's often said "The first country the Nazis subjugated was Germany."
Not even Nazis were safe from Nazis.
*not even Germans were safe from Nazis
Also they to ban Golos movement first
