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.
-
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’m sure 4 years of republicans calling those same countries “shit holes” has nothing to do with it.
This whole article comes off as incredibly disingenuous and pure uninformed ~~opinion~~ BS.
It entirely omits 4 years of trump/bannon burning down the state department and driving out career workers there. It ignores 4 years of trump siding with putin and attacking NATO members, weakening those relationships.
It ignores 8 years of bush/cheney burning down the Middle East and showing the world how unreliable the US can be on the world stage. It ignores the gop lying their way into invading Iraq and it ignores how bush ignored the mission and how trump sold out our presence in Afghanistan, both for personal gain.
The article does say in one sentence: “the White House has worked tirelessly to bolster its existing alliances, while trying to establish new ones wherever possible.”
But then turns around and writes a whole article saying basically that despite these counties having a favorable view when Biden was VP, clearly as Pres, he has ruined everything and his support for our allies must be wrong!
Aiding Israel’s genocide in Gaza is also helping relationships
Repeating tankie nonsense only shows us who are the morons and shills on the internet that think things boil down to one man, compared to damn near a century of US foreign policy, most every lawmaker in congress and a majority of voters… who are uninformed.
Blaming Joe Biden for that just shows how useless you are in understanding the world around you or coming up with any real solution to that very real problem. You might as well blame 3 years of Biden for all the shit reagan, bush1, bush2/cheney, and trump did…
Aka you gotta be just as dumb as this article…
“Genocide Joe” = I’m ignorant of history and like catch phrases. So now, not the past 100 years, is the time for a tantrum! Not workable solutions, more like a T-shirt slogan cause I’m so smart”
Enlightened centrists are the one true god
Not a centrist. Voted as progressive as possible my whole life. Live in a blue state, have marched.
I’m not an idiot. That’s the issue here.
It that the issue here?
You’re right, it’s pretty idiotic to wrestle with a pig, you get covered in shit and they enjoy it.
Your prior comment implied I was taking the position of “enlightened centrist.” That was after your other post which was just a stupid t-shirt slogan.
I mean we could talk about the bigger issue of what your dumb ass comments imply… but fair… the issue right now is giving anything this fucking ignorant the time of day.
Anyone who disregards the aiding of an active genocide as tankie bs, deserves to wrestle pigs. That might fit on a Tshirt
