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.

Neither are Semites so we're even.
Pray real hard then. I'll wait
At what point do you ask yourself "are we the baddies?" Apparently full blown antisemitism isn't that point for you.
You think that point would be when you're bombing hospitals, murdering children, and torturing civilians.
But hey, we still have people defending Israel and calling everyone supporting Palestinians as antisemitic ¯\(ツ)/¯
Anything Jews disagree with turns into antisemitism, shits crazy.
Because they are protesting a hospital founded by Canadian Jews. There is an Israeli consulate in Toronto, but they choose to protest a Hospital founded by Canadian Jews instead. They aren't distinguishing between Israelis and Jews from other countries. The just hate Jews. That's the definition of antisemitism.
I'm unsure how you equate a pro-Palestinan march with anti-semitism when they are CLEARLY not the same thing.
I don't hate Jews or Israelis. I hate that Netanyahu has decided to murder over 30,000 people - mostly women and children - to divert attention away from his corruption trial.
I hate that nations around the world sit back and do nothing while thousands are killed to satiate his bloodlust.
And I hate it when people like yourself refuse to use critical thinking skills when looking at all the facts available, and see who's really responsible for this shit storm.
Was it right for Hamas to kidnap Israelis? No it wasn't. But that should never be an excuse for an elected leader, who's in an active court case on corruption charges, to murder 10's of thousands of women and children.
The most dedicated of these people have literal orders to combat criticism of the state of Israel. This is warfare, for all intents and purposes and they don't want you to know it.
Maybe use some critical thinking skills yourself.
They are protesting a hospital founded by Canadian Jews in a city where there's an Israeli Consulate.
They aren't just protesting Israel anymore. They're protesting all Jews without distinguishing where they're from. Hating all Jews (both Canadian and Israeli) is antisemitism.
At what point does a pro Palestinian March turn into antisemitism?
Because YOU don't agree doesn't mean it's antiemetic.
When they're protesting Canadian Jews in a city where there's an Israeli consulate they could be protesting, that's antisemitism.
This is also antisemitic. You're not talking about just Israel, you're expressing negative feelings about all Jews. You're antisemitic, plain and simple.
Protesting Israel's actions you imbicile
Yeah and instead of protesting at the Israeli consulate, they protested a hospital founded by Canadian Jews. Who's the imbecile? The people who see no distinction between Israelis and Canadian Jews, or people who rightly condemn this as antisemitism?
But you're forgetting that protests that happen in places they normally aren't get a shit ton of more coverage. Do you think they would have gotten any coverage in front of a consulate?
is it in bad taste, probably, but that's what gets people talking. But all y'all see is they hate Jews. No they hate what Israel is doing.
Yeah it gets people talking about this Palestinian group being antisemitic.
Gee... wonder why that is? It's so unfair these people are being judged by their actions!
INB4 the inevitable "both sides" arguments.
Can you not see the distinction between Canadian Jews and Israelis?
Also why are you assuming I'm Jewish? I'm not. Do you think of all Jews as your enemy and all of your enemies as Jews? And why the scare quotes around "people"? Do you not consider Jews to be people?
If you're constantly hearing that people are saying you're being antisemitic, you may want to consider the possibility that you might actually be antisemitic.
Yep gloss over Palestinians, deep throat Benny, cry antisemitism. See what you think of the conflitct
Yes this conflict which was started by Hamas (an authoritarian regime led by billionaires) has made you antisemitic. Just as they intended.
That's what obe Bennies bitches would say

Also a more grounded take of what happened
https://www.thegrindmag.ca/what-happened-mount-sinai-hospital-palestine-rally-passed-by/?ref=readthemaple.com
Your "grounded take" has a photo of someone cosplaying as Hamas. Ya know the people that went into villages and murdered every Jew they could find?
Y'all have lost the thread on this one. I see people claiming to not support Hamas when that's convenient, but you've gotten to the point where you're blind to the obvious pro-Hamas images you're seeing. You think showing someone pro-Hamas imagery is grounded take. You've lost perspective, sorry.
Click ok the picture m8. Takes you to another story about the girl on the bag they are holding. It's part of the fucking protest
