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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

It's also a common anti-semite talking point to declare clear-as-day anti-semitism as anti-zionism.
Very transparent.
And btw. I am against zionism while still being able to tell that it's a bad thing to slaughter civilians. Wonder why you aren't.
Point me towards a comment where you have been critical of Israel bombing hospitals in Lebanon, bombing refugee camps in Palestine or causing over 1000 civilian deaths in Iran these past few weeks.
I know it's a bad thing to kill civilians. That's why I'm against the country that goes out of its way to do it. Israel revels in civilian deaths.
cool so we are in agreement as to my initial comment that it is fucked up to cheer dead civilians.
This comment is why I can't take you at your word when you say you're against all civilian deaths.
Not only do you not have any proof to give, which might be explainable by you not getting the chance to make such a comment just yet. But instead of simply explaining why and using this chance to call out Israel for their atrocities against civilians, you decided to focus on one part of the comment so you can avoid criticising Israel while claiming the moral high ground.
This is a very typical Zionist tactic which is convincing me more and more that you are not arguing in good faith. I can still be wrong, but you're not making it easy for me to trust you.
In this case, all the victims are disproportionately Zionists, so what you're claiming is the less likely thing to be happening here. It's also very transparent when Zionists try to hide behind the Jew identity so they can avoid consequences for their actions, you know?
There is no possible way for you to know that. You are basing this assumption exclusively where these people happened to have been born.
There are polls showing the majority of Israelis consider themselves Zionists. For example.
I want to say you're just uninformed, but I'm way too used to the way Zionists argue to recognise when they are just acting like they don't know so they can make false arguments that aren't based on any facts.
And I am sure you would classify "The Jerusalem Post" as a trustworthy source as well, when it doesn't conform with your views, yes?
Also they asked some 500 people out of almost 10 million Israelis.
I repeat myself: there is no way to know weather the killed civilians were zionists. And even if they were, murdering civilians is bad, regardless of who they are or who does the killing.
Do you classify them as an untrustworthy source when it doesn't conform to your world view? I treat them as a source that I compare with other sources.
Do you know how polls are made? 500 people is enough to get an insight into the trends inside a population. There are other factors that affect the accuracy more than having more people surveyed. You're free to analyze their methodology and come up with an argument for why it invalidates the result.
Like I said, they are more likely to have been Zionists than anti-Zionists, given the proof I've provided. Never did I claim they all are Zionists. I also never even claimed murdering civilians is a positive thing. All I did was disprove your claim that the anti-Zionists sentiment here are caused by antisemitism.
Also, you avoided giving proof that you had made comments calling out Israel for killing civilians in multiple countries when the other guy asked for it, so forgive me for doubting your position that you are against all civilian death. The way you argue are far too reminiscent to the way Zionists do for me to take your word for it.
No I wasn't. I was saying that cheering for dead jewish civilians is anti-semitism because these people would not cheer for dead civilians of other countries, like russia for example.
Why do you think they are cheering because they are Jewish and not because they are a part of a genocidal regime that's shown itself to be the worlds greatest evil of the past decade or two?
I don't approve of the cheering but do you really think everyone is too stupid to see the spin you are trying to pull with it? Pathetic.
Russians don't get to vote. It's a dictatorship and they are all suffering under Putin. Israelis on the other hand, voted for and supported genocide.
And you're making this assertion based on which data?
WhAt AbouT ruSSIa guYS PutiN is BaD too
You spent time on jeffrey island didnt you?
ArE yoU trigGereD. Yes i'm trigGereD asshole some friend died. I hope your family get bombed with white phosphorus
You seem well adjusted.
I hope you do lmao. Maybe that'll teach you something about the real world beside your first World privileged LeFtiSt CircLe. Go have groupsex
It's certainly easier to be well adjusted when living in the country that sells bombs to genociders, you nazi cunt
Israel’s & Israeli sympathizer’s labeling of antisemitism for all criticisms is making that phrase meaningless. They’re putting jewish people at risk by hiding behind it.
Just own it, people are hating on that country because they commit war crimes, warmonger nonstop, and use mossad to run pedo rings to influence / control their “allies” governments—then pretend to be the victim.
Has nothing to do with the faith of the people.
