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.

These far right roots are rioting because of bullshit. The murderer wasn't Muslim but the fascists still used that fake pretext to stir up trouble.
This was absolutely born out of of racism and propaganda. The guy who did it is from Wales. They rioted because they were told he was an immigrant.
And yes there are bad parts in any city that harass women. That's why they prefer the bear. It has nothing to do with being an immigrant or not.
Sure, but one terrorist attack does not justify another. And crime stats just don't support this idea of immigrant criminality.
No there isn't. This is just daily mail nonsense.

Damn, really? Where specifically?
Name the cities and neighborhoods or you're lying. It's possible someone mislead you, but if you repeat it without verification you're still lying.
This is like the thing conservatives said about "cities burning to the ground" because of BLM. Whenever you looked into it, it was some rando not associated with any group. Or possibly a right-wing agitator.
Stop repeating the game of telephone. You can literally go to Saudi Arabia without wearing a headscarf. You think Paris is going to be stricter?
"Definitely"? Lol. You are just repeating 10 year old "Fox and Friends" nonsense. The 19th in Paris is just a working class neighborhood.

Lol. Yeah man. No one ever goes to Paris.
You were talking about "no go zones" where women are supposedly attacked for not covering their heads in Paris. Now you're describing some random attempted robbery in Marseille. Those are 100% not the same, unless the carjackers had an ISIS flag or something.
I think you need therapy for PTSD or something. Your experience might be affecting your judgement.
Ok man, whatever. Conveniently everyone in your story agrees with you. I'm sure they all clapped as you escaped dramatically.
I think it's fine to be pissed off about any religion, especially if it's bringing harm and unrest to a community/culture. Historically kind of religion's thing...
But the second anyone brings ethnicity into it...
It’s a lie. Just like being anti Zionist is racist. It’s not. Can happily critisize problematic teachings of religious doctrines while having zero problems with a person of that race who also disagrees with the doctrine.
What race? If you criticize a religion in a way that sounds like you're attacking a particular race, you're either being speaking from a place of racism, or you need to seriously rethink the way you're expressing your criticism.
No. If you read the thread this is in reference to people who attempt to tie their own race with religion. Eg Jewish people who believe an anti Zionist statement is anti Jewish or a criticism of parts of the Koran is somehow an attack on Arab people
Same thing with Jews and Judaism
It's thin air and racism. To argue other than that is ignorance and racism. Attacking innocent people no matter what you think a select few from their community do is racism.
You write with such confidence while providing no evidence.
Hyperbolic bullshit.
