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.

But thank God we saved Palestine from the evil black lady right? /s
"We stood up for our PRINCIPLES!!!"
-- screamed over the sound of brown people being exterminated
Oh don’t worry, the Israelis will only murder the Palestinians that can’t get out of the West Bank and Gaza when Israel takes it over.
Iran can defend itself. Homeless children can't.
Thank your god Netanyahu that she played into his hands.
Good thing your party stuck to their guns and didn't compromise on committing genocide. Then you wouldn't be able to be smug about losing to a convicted rapist and felon.
Kamela actually talked about a ceasefire several times, Trump just wanted to nuke Palestine and be done with it. If you paid attention, you'd know that.
Biden has talked about ceasefires for a year now, and proven it's just talk. Israel has crossed so many red lines it's impossible to keep count, all with no consequences. Harris said she wouldn't change a thing and her campaign made sure people knew she didn't support an arms embargo on Israel. You can gaslight yourself all you want about her intentions, but her actual words -promised- more of the same.
Trump is awful, but telling people the Dems presented any meaningful opposition to ethnic cleansing or that Harris made it clear she'd be better is propagating a convenient lie.
You might find out soon what genocide actually looks like and then you can wipe those fake tears with your useless virtue signalling. Clown
Haha genocide is not some kind of spectrum, it's the most horrific crime a person can commit. So no, I won't. SeE ReAl GeNOciDe. I'M ALREADY SEEING IT. All from a party that thinks I'm stupid enough to believe they're for justice and peace
So outside of Dems learning a lesson which is now yesterdays news. Do you believe Palestinians are in a better place now Trumps is taking over?
I didn't vote for Trump either. And it's the Dems that blocked progressive candidates like Bernie from office.
Do you think by telling voters like me to eat shit about Gaza that they're better off than if they had actually intervened in Israel's genocide?
No but it's about end results and being savvy about applying what little influence you have and thinking a step ahead. Palestinians are going to be worse off now, Trump has stated before the election that Israel can do what it wants to get the job done. How do you think Trump would handle any ongoing protests at the university's, etc. A man just itching to deploy troops to shoot protestors.
You can blame the dems all you like but voting 3rd party or staying at home has assisted Trump back into power and brought in the loons with him that think war in the middle east will bring the rapture.
He's going to make American, Ukrainian and Palestinian lives far worse. But yeah I guess the dem leadership has learned a lesson now they are going back to their comfortable lives that most likely won't be impacted by any of this.
At least under the Dems you could have continued the protests, continued the pressure for peace.
If you compromise on genocide then you are not a political agent, you're a sheep that can be herded with enough pressure.
You keep using that triangulation bullshit because your party has been using it to goad their own base into voting for far right policies OE absolutely pathetic band aids.
We're not falling for it anymore and we're going to fight against genocide without your worthless party.
People decided to stay at home over this issues or vote and Jill Stein have compromised though. A sheep is someone who would have voted for Trump thinking he's going to bring peace. If you were aware and you decided to protest vote knowing that there is a high chance Trump was getting back in or you would put some thought into it and know whilst the Dems are also a poor option you could at least have some dialogue, protest etc. Donald will set the national guard on you.
No idea how you voted or if you voted at all but the option you have ended up with is more genocide with a extra pat on the back. Non dem voters who were aware of the Gaza situation knew that this would be the end result, you have fallen for it because you have ended up with Donald Trump. Netanyahu thanks you, as he can finish what he started.
I'll eat my words if Donald brings quick peace to Gaza and a two state solution but nothing he's said or done so far shows he is going to do that. So if you knew you could aid Donald getting back into power you also knew and accepted what his stance would be on the Palestinian situation and what the end result would be.
Dem leadership got an ego check but will move on to their speaking engagements and board of directors roles. The Palestinian question is two years out at the midterms and it will likely have been "solved" by Donald. Well done.
Genocide according to who btw?
