World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.

Instead of mass shooting jews, Israel masd bombed palestinians. Both also used starvation as a weapon amd systematic torture
Nazis were also famously fascist, had no elections, had a strong security system to squash internal dissent and brooked no protest, none of which apply to Israel.
I get the appeal of labelling things you oppose as nazis but you can't just pick and choose what aspects fit and then apply the term nazi, it just makes us look dumb.
When someone gets banned from a site and complains that site is run by nazis, if we're using your standard of picking and choosing then that person is as correct as you are as the site is allowing no dissent and removing those who do. But in reality (I pray) we both look at that person and think less of their complaint because of the silliness of their comparison.
Didn't police beat israeli protesters in Tel aviv for cease fire? Isn't israeli police always beat anti zionism ultra orthodox.

Do you really believe protests like these would have been possible in Nazi Germany? Like the Gestapo would've just been "yeah, that's fine."
Is this silliness coming from tik tok or are we really this ignorant nowadays?
Like i already said, many of those protestors was beaten by Israeli police. No matter how much you deny it it is a fact thst israel is using very similar methods as nazi against the group of people they treated as animals deserving to be killed
That wasn't what I asked.
Again, could you see these protests actually happening at all in Nazi Germany?
Yes, there was protests against Nazis during Hitler reign like Rosenstrasse. You keep making minor points and ignoring all the similar terrible stuffs done Israel and the nazis
That's the one protest, as the Reich was falling, reeling from the defeat in Stalingrad. And there were plans floated about simply shooting all the protesters.
Again, it's just nonsense to declare Israel is now a nazi country. Fascism is very different than what Israel is.
Doing terrible things doesn't make one a nazi, and claiming it does makes you look like a child.
I only answered your question, I never said that pretestors in nazi germany was not brutalized. If the comparison was made based on Israel treatment of there own citizens I would agree but here we are talking about Israeli treatment of Palestinians vs Nazi treatment of Jews
If you'll go back to the start, you'll remember the whole thread was about the stupidity of calling Netenyahu a nazi.
By your logic, anyone that attacks a group of people on any group characteristics is a nazi. Which is goddamn nonsense.
I get the appeal of calling people doing bad things nazis, but you sound like a child doing so. Worse, it makes it much more difficult for anyone to take our side seriously. (Same way that it is fucking stupid when trump called Harris a communist.)
My workday is done and you aren't worth my free time.
Have a good weekend.
Natanyaho who compared palestinians to amalek. I never heard such a more clear genocidal statement as that. The bible talks about israelites being asked to kill women, infants and animal. He is responsible of killed ten thousands palestinians, displacing millions and create a famine so yeah the comparison is fair.
No my logic is a group of people trying to genocide or ethenically cleansing another population can be compared to nazis
Trust me nobody would stop being pro palestinian because natanyaho and israel are compared to nazis
I am the one who wasted my time showing all the valid comparisons while you keep bringing irelevant stuffs like democracy. It is reminds me of zionists using the democracy argument to say that there is genocide
