A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

She won't see an actual jail unless she seriously fuck-up, most of the sentence is suspended and as the remaining time is under two years she has the right to request house arrest or any other alternative sentence.
So the remaining sentence is that she can't run at next presidential election (provided that she doesn't get something else in appeal before the election).
Obvious reminder that if you or I would have stole 4 millions Euro we would see an actual jail.
He so goddamn embarrassing.
How unsurprising and tiring. It's always the same.
I mean, 3 million euros is literal peanuts. Do be aware that this is a politically charged witch hunt.
One that fortifies the EU and weakens Russia.
I'm all for that
Ah yeah you have no problem with the far-right, xenophobia or the fact she's the daughter of a torturer or the head of a party founded by the Waffen SS.
The only issue is that she borrowed money from russia
He "demands", how cute...
Trump is a cunt. Sorry that’s disrespectful.
President Trump is a cunt.
Trump lacks the warmth and depth.
He keeps calling on France to do stuff when France is the country least likely to do said stuff.
Hopefully France does not.
Hopefully France cannot. The legal system should be independent to not be even able to cave to political pressure like this.
Hell no. Don’t let that right wing criminal free. We should have thrown our Orange Turd into jail.
Toton.
