What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.

"lemme just attack a leftist real quick for heaving the AUDACITY for living in Ukraine and choosing to show an affinity for Ukrainian self determination when I didn't approve of it"

Campist gotta camp. There's no "left unity" with these people, just like back in 1910s when Bolsheviks backstabbed everyone who helped them to build their own autocracy

The left is forbidden like all anti-war parties in 'free and democratic' ex-ukraine.
No complaining about being kidnapped to die for a lost cause in the meatgrinder for the US benefit. The only 'leftist' in the banderite camp are the silly anarchists, they have a tradition of being useful tools for western imperialists and fascists.

leftists in ex-ukraine get put in jail or their parties forbidden like 12 or so.
Maybe you should've honored the Mink accords and let the east and south have self-determination and not live under a coup regime that wants to treat them as second class citizens.
But no you chose to bomb them or burn them alive.
FAFO

Ukraine is in close cooperation with anarchocommunist groups within Ukraine at the front and leftist groups from russia like Sibir Corps and Cut the Lines that the kremlin has labeled as terrorist groups. i don't know where you're getting your understanding that the modern day russian federation is the champion of the left in Ukraine, but it's certainly not a stance with a grounding in reality

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world -4 points 4 months ago

your understanding that the modern day russian federation is the champion of the left in Ukraine

Cheap fallacy of putting words in my mouth.

Russia is mostly conservative and I don't particularly like Putin.
But they are certainly the lesser evil against a US fascist proxy who get more and more unhinged every day.

has labeled as terrorist groups

This Sibir Corps are fighting against their country, so terrorists is accurate. Traitors also.
Maybe they should join the RVC?
Oh wait, they're from a different ethnicity. I see the problem there.

And as I said, typical of anarchists, fight against 'authoritarian regeeeem!'.
Invariably and only against enemies of the US.
They are an embarrassment and should stop dirtying the name of communism.
Some literally joined Azov.
I hope they get what they deserve.
