-
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.
-
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.

Nothing can justify this.
Edit: You guys aren't getting this, so I'll explain it. This was senseless murder. Period. This wasn't some he said she said left versus right bullshit. Go ahead and say "actually" and go fuck yourself. I'm tired of this ridiculous nerd baiting bullshit. You're not funny. You're not witty. You're not scoring points. Life isn't reducible to the whims of some shitty sorting hat that rewards you points because you're not a cunt. This was senseless murder and should be treated as such without stupid fucking dry sarcasm.
And yet many will try
Then they are a piece of garbage
but maybe decades of throwing bombs in their heads explains it
Nope it doesn't. They didn't rape the women at the music festival because of the Israeli bombs. They did it because they're monsters and they enjoyed it.
Can we see some proof of these rape claims? I've been scouring the news and have found nothing.
Scouring?
Should I know what you're trying to say here?
You don’t have to look far to find the videos.
They’re on X and TikTok even.
Link me. You're all saying they exist. I'm seeing nothing.
Israel is reaping what they sowed.
Maybe not justifiable, but 100% predictable and a direct response to Israel's illegal actions (and unfortunately, as usual, innocent civilians are the ones who suffer).
The people affected here aren't "Israel". They're just civilians trying to live their lives. Believe me I hate the Israeli govermnet and am very sympathetic to Palestinian soverignty.
NOTHING justifies terrorism. It's evil and the people who did this are rats
Edit: yeah downvote me you sacks of shit. They raped women next to dead bodies of their friends.
Yes, that is exactly what I'm saying, why am I being downvoted and you upvoted?
Edit: Well, I'm happy to know most people agree with me, despite misunderstanding my comment

I didn't see the "they're just civilians" when Americans justify Hiroshima.
people criticised the bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima constantly, and continue to do so
I thought so, until I happened to watch a reel about it on Instagram and the amount of comments "they deserved it for pearl harbor" was shocking.
different people have different opinions, more in at 5
That's a dumb justification.
An opinion can be subjective. You can like or dislike communism. But you cannot like or dislike genocide, unless you're sick in the head.
its probably a dumb justification because i wasnt trying to justify anything
im pointing out that some americans saying something isnt hypocritical or less valid just because you saw some other americans say something that contradicts it
So you chill with Israel leveling Gaza then?
Israel needs to stay tf out of gaza! did you read what I said???
I hate to break it to you, but Gaza is where Hamas is. Hamas decided to fuck around and they're going to find out, and it's not going to be pretty. Gaza will likely be completely leveled; it's too dangerous to allow Hamas to remain anywhere near Israel.
Quick note: I'm not a fan of Israel either.
You know that Israel will enter Gaza after this - with a huge army. And they will not start to indiscriminately kill civilians… but they will enter there, because they want to get attacked. And as soon as they get attacked, they will start flattening whole buildings from where they were attacked.
Lmao what serious Marxist is saying this is ok?
You haven't looked at lemmygrad.ml then: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/2247249
Also:
Why are we still federated with these terrorist supporters?
Jesus.
Let me guess, you're one if these galaxy brains that thinks Ukraine defending itself is it being "just like Russia" too?
You're being downvoted, but a shit tonne of people are justifying the atrocities because it's againstna people they hate.
deleted by creator
Do you know how many thousands of civilians were killed by the allies in WW2? Do you think that was unjustified too?
Nothing against you if you say yes, it's just about consistency.
Yes. Yes that was. And very irrelevant to the topic at hand. What are you trying to do, get a moral compass of some guy on the internet? Then what, open discussion? This is baseless murder. Stop comparing and start raging at the injustice.
If all you people actually cared about Palestinians and didn't turn a blind eye about all the atrocities committed by Israel the past 70+ years, none of this would be happening now.
You're removing the all context because you don't give a fuck about Palestinians and their treatment by Israel. You're trying to pretend this happened in a vacuum.
