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.

How come the media never mentions if they are Christian or not? Why hasn't the Pope condemned this act in Latin and English?
What does the Pope have to do with the Anglican Church? Also what does it matter if they were religious or not?
They are all Christians.
Indeed. Makes you wonder why when there is a Muslim or an refugee or an immigrant murderer I hear so much about it. Media is full of stories today about an arrest of a refugee made in a center.
Ah, is that a common thing in the UK to bring up religion if the perp was Muslim?
The Pope does not represent the Anglican Church. It'd have to be the King of England speaking up.
Go checkout the dailymail and see for yourself.
Isn't that a righting tabloid trash?
I answered your question. By all measures very popular and thus common.
Not all christians recognize the Pope. It's like asking why the patriarch of Constantinople or the patriarch of Moscow didn't comment on the news.
If all did would he have condemned the attacks in Latin and English?
Only 6% of adults are practicing Christians in the UK. It’s statistically unlikely this has anything to do with religion.
TIL that 6% = 0%
Now answer my questions. Why didn't the Pope condemn the attack in Latin and English?
Why would the pope comment on a murder in England that has no religious motive? Has Justin Welby condemned it? Mirza Masroor Ahmad? Yitzhak Yosef? No, because it’s completely irrelevant. Stop piggybacking on this tragedy with your weird religious agenda.
Right Christianity has nothing whatsoever even the slightest not even a hint to do with this. Nope.
Because if they were Christian. they were probably Anglican.
I see. So if they were Catholic the response from the Pope would NOT be silence? No? Seems like the gotcha doesn't work.
If they burnt a cross into the person they killed or claimed they were doing it for religious reasons, yeah, the pope does often condemn such acts. But really it's just another murder.
Yes the venn diagram between skydaddy followers and anti-trans is two circles with no overlap. How silly of me to think that there was any link.
I know. The Pope never condemns people who carry out what he preaches.
Next time a Muslim guy is in the news I can remind you of that.
Oh ok, so you're just an idiot. Nevermind.
Where you going? Got to get up early to get the Jesus cookie?
Nah gotta go murder some trannies
What does that have to do with anything?
it's satire about how if a muslim or an immigrant commits a crime, everyone expects imams or community leaders of that culture to comment publicly or else consider them in support of the crime
Do you believe that Christianity had nothing to do with this?
Unlikely, but I see your point.
Why is Richard Dawkins silent on this issue?
Because delightfully bigoted grandpa can't figure out how to tweet since the update.
