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.

Shouldn't have launched missiles at Israel on October 7th. I know they've been fighting since 1948, but perhaps that bombing put Israel's barrage into overtime.
Who would have thought that Jews and Muslims can't share the same land.
A fight over the holy land, and people care more about the Muslims than the Jews and their 6 million death genocide during WW2.
Is it because Trump supports Israel?
Is it because the Palestinians are the rightful owners of the holy land?
Either way, you can thank the almighty Great Britain for this holy war and bringing down the ottoman empire.
It's a tough situation for either side. A whole planet and the two contradicting ideologies are trying to inhabit the same land.
Hopefully, both sides find peace.
They lived together fine for many years. People are concerned about Palestinians because there is accepted scholarly consensus that they are being killed en masse in a genocide waged by Israel and supported materially by the US and it's allies. Likely at least 100,000 Palestinian people have been killed since October 2023.This isn't a competition for who is the most worthy victim historically between Muslims and Jews, innocent families, entire neighborhoods are being obliterated by Israel right now. Thousands of children are at risk of starving because of the total blockade by Israel. Many Jewish people disagree with what is happening and would prefer to share the space in peace.
Supporting Palestine and recognizing this as genocide has nothing to do with recognizing the horrors of the holocaust and feeling sympathy for the Jewish victims of antisemitism, they are not contradictory positions.
Tbf, not everyone needs to get informed or involved with issues like this. Realistically, many people would be better off engaging minimally with social media and focusing on their own health and wellbeing and just generally embracing casual anti-racism, rather than trying to internalise it.
I bet you would have been against the Warsaw uprising as well.
Everybody sucks here. Neither side deserves the land, nor has a moral upper hand. They should both be shunned permanently.
No, Israel sucks here, the Palestinians have the moral upper hand, and the Israeli apartheid state has no right to exist. They're committing a genocide, and have been ethnically cleansing the Palestinian people for over three quarters of a century. The Palestinians have been exercising their right to resist the ethnonationalist, apartheid, genocidal, colonial occupiers, which is perfectly legitimate under international law.
We don't need this kind of stupidity. Here, anywhere, now, or ever.
