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.

They attacked a fucking music festival and slaughtered civilians. That's a beginning.
That is horrific, inexcusable, and unjustifiable, but it is not a beginning.

Yes, it is. Last week, Gaza was at peace. They planned and executed this attack.
Not true. Gaza was not "at peace".
Yes, they were.
Only according to Israel.
According to objective, basic reality.
Not by a long shot.
How many more innocent people have to die before you admit reality is real?
Explain this then

Doesn't sound like open warfare.
You’re an idiot. Gaza is an open air prison
After almost a century of the people they support relentlessly trying to make a genocide happen, I am at a loss as to what alternative solution you have in mind. But I'd love to hear it.
Oh that easy. Make Germany Israel since you know Germany can be blamed for what happened to them. Israel wants a state? Fine but not Palestine they had nothing to do with ww2
If you can get all of the Jews of Israel to voluntarily leave to colonize some vacant land in Alaska or whatever, knock yourself out.
England did it once they can do it again 😚
So, you want ethnic cleansing, by force, of the Jews
Idk how many more settlers will Israel slaughter before Hamas retaliates again? U tell me.
It's up to Hamas.
Wrong.
Oh, right. Yes, I forgot that peace was achieved between Israel and Hamas until Saturday.
Last week, they weren't shooting each other. This week, Hamas unilaterally decided to end that by murdering hundreds of civilians.

Dude the Palestinian-Israeli conflict didn’t begin last week….
This war did. Last week, Gaza was at peace.
No it wasn’t. Last week it was under Israeli occupation and blockade. That is not peace
Blockade, yes, for obvious reasons. But Gaza hasn't been occupied since 2005.
Dude just… no https://www.ochaopt.org/poc/5-18-september-2023
This war is a part of a almost century long conflict. You cannot ignore that.
Lmfao. Tell me u have no clue without telling me you have no clue.
No it was not. Has not been since 1948.
There's been a series of wars, generally started by Arabs, since 1948. But last week, there wasn't a war.
Simply wrong on all accounts. Wow.
