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.

No, but USAmericans living in Mexico can be deported back to the US, especially if the local voting population "cry all they want" about it.
So, do you think that the rich people who own everything in Mexico are going to allow the non-Mexican people who are paying more than they should but less than they were before to be deported? I would be very surprised if the rich Mexicans are willing to give up that cash. Break as many windows as you want
I would guess it's not windows but gringos those people will start breaking. And even the Mexican rich don't want an unstable society, so they might just let them.
Do you think it would be OK for a Mexican citizen to physically injure a person who has chosen to work remotely from Mexico City in an attempt to be able to afford a good life? Do you feel that is appropriate? Do you think that I should be able to Physically injure immigrants that I don’t agree with? Is it just limited to Mexicans against white people?
Money always wins. Money wins 100% of the time. Money never ever ever ever loses. I wish the world was different. I wish the world was how I thought the world might have been when I was a kid. But it’s not. People from north of Mexico Are going to be moving to Mexico. People from Mexico are going to be pushed out to this suburbs or the rural areas. This is life.
Personally, Mexico is too hot for me. I will probably end up dying in a trailer in Alaska or Northern Canada. Hopefully no one will find me for years and it will be super creepy.
The reason why salaries are higher in the US is because they exploit Mexico. You don't get to go there and enjoy the cheap price you colonialist fuck
I don’t think I would enjoy living in Mexico. Clearly I would not be able to bring my things with me because deportation would be eminent. So I imagine all I could do was pay a lot in rent and spend a lot at the local restaurants and other stores that most likely are owned by rich business people who will absolutely side with me.
Of course, I would never move to Mexico because it is way too hot. I would rather take my chances north
Also can you start calling me a white piece of shit instead of a colonist fuck, it’s good to get the racism out in the open
