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.
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.

theres a channel 5 segment on it, the dude decided to cross from mexico with "coyotes" back into the US, as an american, and they got caught. spent several days in shite conditions, and talks about whole process. its pretty interesting.
Channel five is fucking wild. I love it.
Bald and bankrupt did a video that is much more in depth on the trail the illegal immigrants use. Anybody who's willing to go through that hell to get to the States isn't someone in worried about paying welfare for, those people got fucking gumption.
It's depressing how much better Americans the illegals often are compared to the native trash we have in the south.
They should be terrified of great replacement, that's like upgrading from a burning pinto to a Bugatti.
They are terrified. The US got Texas with great replacement in the 1840's. White people came legally at first and then streamed across the border overwhelming the natives and Mexicans and they brought slaves and when Mexico told them slavery is illegal they declared the Texas revolution and more white Americans came to help fight it (including Davy Crockett) and they won and a few years later the US annexed Mexico
They fear Mexicans doing the same thing back. They won't, but conservative white people don't believe that.
You are giving them too much credit, they didn't study history. Conservatives fear them because their world is so small and the unknown scares them. They're terrified because they've never been abroad, they live their whole ass lives knowing the same people they grew up with, driving the same roads, working the same shit job.
They don't understand everyone is just a person.

Similar to what was done in both Florida and Hawai’i too.
They just might now.
