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.

Sharon Osbourne urges US to revoke Kneecap rappers’ visas after Israel criticism
(www.theguardian.com)
My mother's best friend's name is Sharon. Finally, someone else said it! /j
but also, what's up with these rock n roll people, meant to be sticking it to the man, sucking the man's dick?
I like to think of Steven Tyler. Big time rocker. Smooth. In the 70s. Then went on to host a singing show while being the lamest. Somewhere along the line they sellout and abandon former coolness. Like a 180! Don't even deserve the title.
Seems to be around about the time they start showing signs of becoming the Cryptkeeper
Nobody is cool asa middle aged parent but some think they are entitled to be considered such because they were cool as kids.
“Music’s primary purpose is to unite people.
Against you, you fascist thundercunt.
She ruined the only opportunity I had to see Iron Maiden.
They dropped off the Ozzfest tour that year because Sharon was a cock-juggling-thunder-cunt right before they got to my town.
Who gives a fuck what Sharon Osbourne thinks?
Love being lectured on “music’s true purpose”
Talk about a fucking high horse. I’ve never seen one so big! WHAT DOES IT EAT?
Meanwhile "War Pigs" is playing loudly in the back of my head.
It must be corn, it's the only grass I can think of that grows tall enough for that horse's lofty station.
Sharon Osborne can fuck off. She's only notable because she rode Ozzy's coattails, and only then because of rubbish reality TV.
because of rubbish reality TV
Is there any other kind?
My initial reaction was to agree. Of course it's all rubbish! Then I thought to take a few minutes to challenge my assumptions. Could actually good reality television exist? I found only two examples.
First is Nailed It, which is far less dramatic, more fun, and designed so that all contestants will fail but they are aware of this going in.
Second is Sasuke, known as Ninja Warrior outside of Japan.
That's it. The rest is shite.
Bat heads
Uhhhhhh… has she never listened to the song sung by her husband ‘War Pigs’?
For anyone unfamiliar:
War Pigs by Black Sabbath
Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields, the bodies burning As the war machine keeps turning Death and hatred to mankind Poisoning their brainwashed minds Oh, Lord, yeah
Politicians hide themselves away They only started the war Why should they go out to fight? They leave that role to the poor, yeah
Time will tell on their power minds Making war just for fun Treating people just like pawns in chess Wait 'til their judgement day comes, yeah
Now in darkness, world stops turning Ashes where their bodies burning No more war pigs have the power Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling On their knees, the war pigs crawling Begging mercy for their sins Satan laughing, spreads his wings Oh, Lord, yeah
The song was originally titled Walpurgis and they had to change the title.
"Walpurgis is sort of like Christmas for Satanists. And to me, war was the big Satan", said bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler. "It wasn't about politics or government or anything. It was Evil itself. So I was saying 'generals gathered in the masses / just like witches at black masses' to make an analogy. But when we brought it to the record company, they thought 'Walpurgis' sounded too Satanic. And that's when we turned it into 'War Pigs'. But we didn't change the lyrics, because they were already finished."
No.
Sharon Osbourne is a terrible person and her family line should not be given aplatform for anything.
The Osbournes need to fuck all the way off.
She is just mad the truth is coming out. And all she can do is try and kick people out of the country she doesn't like who aren't spouting the approved messages. Sharon and her gang (I'd say likes to see, but I feel they bury their heads) like the high number of dead--dead babies, children, mothers, women, aid workers, journalists, and the destruction of schools and hospitals. It's why they stand in the way of truthful reporting. All while claiming everyone is a terrorist and everything is antisemitic. These people have no shame! They are the liars.
Fox News commentators also condemned the band and accused it of bringing “Nazi Germany” sentiments to America.
The hypocrisy is baffling. As if Fox ~~News~~ Propaganda hasn't been bringing fascism to the US for decades.
She's still alive?
Bet she rejoiced during Bloody Sunday.
How about we clean up the trash, and send it back to England..?
