- 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 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.

I don’t feel Canada is wrong here. You can’t just murder one of our own citizens on our own soil. If India wants to prosecute or use the legal system that’s fine.
That being said, I also feel like Canada accepts a lot of immigration from India. We take tons of Indian students and Canadians don’t necessarily go to India for schooling. I’m wondering how long this will last because I don’t feel Canada needs India as much as India needs Canada. I could be wrong, just a layman’s assessment.
No one "needs" India...
Their plan is to become the world's new sweatshop instead of China. And shipping all that junk overseas costs a lot of money and pollution while taking jobs away from the countries that buy it.
Maybe if they'd already replaced China that would be a short term issue, but they haven't so it's not.
They're of no use from the other side of trade, there's not many wealthy enough to buy goods from Asia or the West.
India could go completely isolationist and the only ones it would really affect are people who live in India.
I'm hoping the West has learned that maybe exporting all of our production capabilities to a foreign country isn't actually a good idea.
As long as it is cheaper, businesses will continue doing so.
Those schools will miss the international student tuition fees.
But I don't care about that. I just feel bad for the families this will affect and I want the Sikhs who call Canada home to feel safe here.
Can't kill citizens on their own soil? You know their are government organizations who's job that is specifically?
I don't think you understand...
India killed a Canadian citizen in Canada...
Even then tho, your comment doesn't make a lot of sense
I don’t understand this false equivalency.
Yeah militaries around the world have done terrible stuff and they shouldn’t.
It doesn’t make what India allegedly did OK during peace time and to a Canadian civilian.
Lead poisoning or just willful ignorance?
Why not both?
