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.

Good. We should do the same in the US too.
Should do the same in every nation on earth, nazism cannot be allowed to flourish again. The cost of life is too high
It's weird that I have to say this but this should also be done in Latin America.
Like, no, you're not Aryan, you're just pale. And you-- you're not even pale, wtf? You'd be the first one in the gas chambers, Pedro Contreras!
This reminds me of that black white supremacist skit.
Then Chapelle got rich and decided to go full right wing
It seems like they all do. Or for some at least they always were but pretended to avoid being cancelled before having enough money to not care.
We need to shut down the stand up venues until we figure what the fuck is going on
God help you if you're just generally not interested in watching the fuckin thing, every "free speech absolutist" within a three mile radius comes down on you for not supporting Dave over "just jokes!"
Bro calm your stiffy I just don't care about the guy cause it's, yknow, 2024.
Honestly, it's worse, if you're thinking of the Chappelle's Show skit. At least the character Clayton Bigsby is also blind so he literally doesn't know he's actually white.
Because they believe in many of the same "traditional values" as nazis -- they're natural allies.
Of course those dipshits don't realize the nazis only want their help now because they're desperate for numbers. As soon as the nazis no longer need their help they're getting their own Night of the Long Knives.
IDK if there's a name for the logical fallacy but I always think it's bonkers how people who throw in with hate as an ideology never think it'll fall on them at some point, especially as a non-(white/cis/male/whatevs.)
There's alot of anti trans gay people throwing in with the right because they are too - never once think after the trans are banned that they'd come next, not like that's half the right's thing or anything.
Original Position Fallacy.
It is banned in Brazil though, but it's hard to prosecute when the police itself has sympathizers in it that didn't want to take in custody a dude with a nazi tattoo:

And Canada should as well.
Technically it is illegal here in Canada.
I work in set Decoration in Canada and dealing with Nazi paraphernalia has a whole documentation process. There's a handful of prop houses in the States that traffics in the stuff and the paperwork to import it has to be very carefully handled or else it gets seized at the border. Once the stuff is owned by the production company it must be kept under lock and key when it is not onset and removing it from the set or the lockup without proper signed off on authorization is a firing offence.
It's depressing that we have to jump through so many hoops for a stupid symbol that should have been relegated to a laughing stock of losers in the past.
Sadly, we've got a whole new wave of young losers with plastic / lead brain rot that made them susceptible to this shit.
Just look at those two morons in the article...
The recent round of anti semitism incidents has nothing to do with nazis, though, I suspect the same in Australia, this is probably politicians bring politicians more than anything.
It's not even antisemitism related.
My state did this already last year and it's to combat the alt-right/white supremacists. Jewish people don't really factor into it as much as their hate for Muslims/Black people.
Not really. Just look at the news.
Hate speech is protected in America.
Authoritarianism is never a good idea, even when used against authoritarians.
