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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
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.

Guys, I’m starting to think we Americans may not get to pick our own next leader…
“You’ll never have to vote again”
160 million people were fine with that already.
starting? the rest of the world was telling you like a year ago that this was it for you and most Americans were all "we gotta win the next election!"
Brave of you to think that A. the next one won't be rigged or B. you'll even HAVE one.
The last one was rigged. The game was over when Merrick Garland didn't imprison the traitor.
I hope Garland never sleeps again
You can pick whichever leader you want as long as it's Trump
The Henry Ford election system^TM^
He should go to Iran and hand pick the next leader.
Haven’t the Iranians been through enough?
Exclusive: Trump says you have to invite him to your birthday party and give him presents and he gets the piece of cake with the fancy chocolate thing on it
Well yes you can when you become an Iranian citizen. How about the Donnie boy?
Sure, let's get him, FIFA, Putin, and the rest of the Axis of Peace right on it!
Can we finish up with the Epstein files after?
It will be pretty boy Kushner
...or one of Trump real estate pedo buddies.
"He's gonna convert to Islam. He's gonna love his 42 virgins. He likes them on the younger side"
*awkward smiles
Dead in a week. Sad.
"Freedom" means America decides who rules you.
That's not going to happen, lolq
I must be involved in all donut taste tests going forward. I've declared it!
That's funny, the doesn't sound very democratic... which is oddly enough the system keeping his orange ass alive at the moment.
Based on your current cabinet composition, and the turnover in your last cabinet, I'm not convinced that you're all that great at selecting people for positions, Trump.
He is going to pick morally bankrupt pedofile
Stop fucking reporting every brainfart he has. Report it when and if he relaunches the Apprentice to choose. I'm sure every POTUS in history has said the same thing, but the press never used to report such inane crap, especially not as their headline. Surely this crap can't still be driving click through rates.
Congress: Agreed!
Will the next Iranian leader be decided with a pageant?
I wonder how high of a bribe Trump expects for this job.
It is no longer unthinkable, it is no longer an "if". "How high" is the only question left.
He pretty much announced the start of the bid with this statement.
He won't be satisfied and then pick himself.
Who's volunteering for that role?
