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.
-
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.

How generous to hand out peanuts.
Not to be a clit but the devaluation of Russias dollar. How much would that be in US terms?
Around half a monthly salary for the low wage jobs. Maybe even less than that.
So, a slap in the face. But watch them thank the tzar instead of reaching for the pitchforks.
Almost like they get the ruler they deserve.
On the flip side, it's difficult to build enough momentum to change things. Your last line can be used for virtually any of the political systems in the world. Even the "free" ones.
Much harder when any differences of opinion results in a "disappearance".
That is fair. I'm just disappointed with the amount of people who buy the government propaganda, but that's not a specifically russian problem.
Although when the government starts killing their neighbours justifying it "because they're gay nazis" - that's probably when the slightest bit of critical thinking should tell them that there's something wrong with the government and not their neighbours.
Disappearances will continue for as long as the state is enabled to do whatever. It would be very foolish to feel secure only because of staying silent. But to realise that would as well require some critical thinking.
Residents who have been displaced by the ongoing fighting in Russia's Kursk Oblast will be paid 10,000 rubles ($115)
$116.00 = ₽9976.25 ₽116.00 = $1.34
I think he was asking about purchasing power of 116$ in Russia.
Yet another sign of the Russian economy booming!
Things are going great for Russia now and Putin is really showing how to fight them Nazis!
Things are going great for Russia now and Putin is really showing how to fight them Nazis!
All from the comfort of their own home!
And 900 hours of AOL
Why is he punishing them?
That oughta fix it
Shit, almost enough for breakfast!
They don’t have any eggs in Russia. Just potatoes boiled in tears.
Sounds like he expects the number of affected russians to get much bigger!
