- 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 (perjorative, perjorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (perjorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect!
-
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.

We're about due for a big war unfortunately. It's been long enough since the last big war that no one that was alive to experience it is still in power. The politicians we have today didn't live though it or were toddlers when it ended.
History repeats itself and the current crop of idiots we've got in leadership positions in places like Russia, China, Israel, North Korea, etc are unstable and most of them are getting old with nothing to lose. I honestly feel like it'll be a miracle if we're able to end all of the current conflicts without them escalating or spreading, and the posturing from North Korea and China against their neighbors doesn't help things either.
We're living in a period of time that is going to be very interesting to read about in history books a century from now.
Come on, you really want to be the last one on the planet without a war? Get with the times, hippie, war is the new black. Get yours before they run out!
NK feeling tough with all that russian money jangling in thier pocket right now.
I would not be surprised in the slightest if when Vlad is booted out of Ukraine that he starts a proxy war in Korea to felate his bruised ego
This aggression was part of Putin's weapons deal with Kim. This is one of Putin's numerous global efforts to distract the west from Ukraine.
Putin's other helpers include: Hamas, Iran, Houthis, Venezuela, China and U.S. Republicans.
