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 think more bureaucracy, more european funds giving money to their friends, more surveillance and more prohibitions should do the job.
If you want change, start by removing prohibitions, give back freedom of decision how people can live and die, start lowering cost of living by repairing existing infrastructure instead of only destroying it, start destroying monopolies, start promoting small businesses, stop all socialism, start respecting all people and their believes instead of promoting only one single source of truth - we are different, protect native culture, promote traditional family that is roots of europe. Stop promoting and spedning money only on new things and stop taking care of only of yourself.
But what I know. I'm nobody and the best I can hear is I'm under russian influence, I'm racist and I am underman because I dared to think by myself.
Ok, let's see how your proposals are faring in the contemporary laboratory of the far right.
Italy moves to ban lab-grown meat
Italy's LGBTQ+ community decries government's attacks on same-sex parental rights
Cost of living in Italy to rise again from September
And so on. Looks like the only things she's delivering is fucking over anyone who looks or lives differently. Keep deluding yourself thinking that screwing over others will solve your problems. You'll have time to relish in your triumph when Europe becomes a shithole and you realize that, after having removed the undesirables, your life is still shit.
I... What?
If I were to plot all of your positions on the political compass, would that draw Rick Astley...?
Because of people like you Europe will die, because people are divided on those who are allowed to speak and who can't speak freely about what they feel because they're scared they would be laughted from and marginalized or more likely canceled - just like you did laughted my comment.
Hmmm nooo, I have no problem with you speaking, I'm just pointing out that what you speak makes no sense. That's just free speech :)
Well I fell the same about your text. Maybe that's what people are, they write without sense and read without sense.
Stop socialism, but also stop taking care of only yourself!
So don't be socialist, but also be socialist.
And you wonder why people say you don't make any sense.
Because there is a difference between socialsim and national socialism that is growing. Those people who allow national socialism to grow are mostly media. I believe that most of people who support national socialism are manipulated because of misunderstanding what socialism and what nationalism is so they say hey you're wearing my country symbols I like you. But they should say hey you're wearing my country symbols and you're socialist so get out of my country you nazi scumbag.
Media today tend to simplify and put equal sign between nationalism and nazism (national socialism) and as a result they allow national socialism to grow instead of nationalism and patriotism to grow and strength the difference between nations but losen the difference between people.
So if you know who you are and where you belong to and you meet people different to you, you don't feel bad but respect both other people and yourself because you know where you're standing.
And that changed in media to become - everyone is equal (no we're not), everyone is capable to do anything (no we're not). They removed work as a way for success and replaced it with being popular and fancy so everyone right now want to be popular not working.
People forgot who they are, we are bombarded that we are citizens of the world, yet we still live as part of certain nation, certain country and certain land and we should start identify with it or we lose our identity and everything will become haos like you decribe it it doesn't make any sense to you because you're bombarded with messages that you belong to the world not bounded by anything.
