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.

TIL the existence of antisemitism as reported by the New York Times is "alt right propaganda"
No, but it is leaving behind the fact that the surge in anti-semitism is not directly related to the Hamas attack, but to the disproportionate and genocidal response by Israel.
Before anyone accuses me of supporting any of that, I am not excusing that surge in anti-semitism, it is stupid (to say the least) to attack Jewish people no matter your gripe with the Israeli government, but I think that an unbiased piece should have included as main reason of the surge the Israeli actions instead of making it look like the Hamas attack was just the first one of a series of coordinated attacks worldwide.
It's not leaving behind anything. Hamas started this war because they felt that they could escape consequences by both hiding behind the civilian population and counting on the people they want to genocide to limit themselves from any effective action. They want people like you to demand ceasefires and try to pressure them into returning everything to status quo ante bellum, so they can start the next war, and the next, and the next.
And then when Israel refuses to play that game and attempts an effective military response, people like you blame them for doing so, and even run interference when a news org like the NYT notices a rising tide of antisemitism by talking about how the reporting should both sides this or some fucking bullshit.
It's a tragedy what's happening in Gaza, but also entirely predictable. Maybe the people of Gaza should have done something about Hamas before they started this war. But they didn't, and now, it's unfortunately time that they reap the consequences of putting genocidal lunatics in power and letting them stay there.
Seeing a bit of your comment history, you seem to be very pro-Israel. So, I’m guessing arguing has no point.
I will just say - if Israel did not steal land, the entire issue from 1948 up to now 2023, wouldn’t have happened.
Hamas wouldn’t have been made, Palestinians wouldn’t have died and the Israeli people wouldn’t have died either.
The war started the moment Israel stole the land in 1948. That’s the root cause of the entire thing.
This is my first and last comment though.
The 1948 war was started by Arabs who rejected the partition plan. Israel won that. Vae victis, don't start wars if you're not prepared to deal with the consequences.
You're right that Israel has been stealing land - in the West Bank, via illegal settlements. They should withdraw those settlers, but it is irrelevant to the issue of Hamas because the last settlements in Gaza were demolished in 2005.
I'm not pro Israel. What I am is someone who is anti Hamas, and I'm not going to pretend that the Israelis are chuckling monsters who enjoy murdering babies for the fun of it.
