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.

My opinion on banning abortion in my country? Not now, they should focus on the economy and redirecting funds to social welfare first. 2/3 children not having a meal everyday is just of higher priority.
You can't have an opinion on it right now? Or you think it's not something positive for your country right now? What about in the future? Do you think it's a good idea to outright ban abortion in the future then?
I have an opinion and it is: Not now, solve the whole “2/3 of children don’t eat while the goverment is paying millionaires to make movies” problem first, then we can discuss abortion.
Well, sucks to be you, because Milei seems to want to do it now, and won't call a referendum on it.
I wonder how long it will take for the leopards to start eating people's faces. (Well, they kinda did with women, but who cares about women having access to abortion, right?)
Not really, that bill was made by the legislator Rocío Bonacci(a woman? how can that be!) without asking Milei, and there’s like 0.01% chance its gets approved so there’s no need to worry.
They won’t, these leopards only eat rats. And they’re not messing with women, once again: we (men and women) voted for this.
A woman trying to ban abortion access to all other women doesn't justify shit.
Don't like abortions? Don't have one.
"We voted for it" doesn't justify shit either. The germans voted for the nazis too. Democratically. Did that justify anything? What kind of take is that?
The leopards eat faces. As we have seen many times before. Good luck to you and your people, you'll need it.
You’re saying this as someone who likes abortion, I’ll remind you that anti-abortion people don’t just “not like it” but actually believe it’s equivalent to murdering a person. You would’t say “don’t like theft? Just don’t steal!” to push a bill to decriminalize theft, would you?
Our culture doesn’t appreciates abortion the same way yours do, that’s ok and we’ll not push your country to ban abortion.
And I may be wrong, argentina may be more pro-abortion than I think, we’ll see once/if a referendum happens.
Thank you! uwu
