Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

Damn is it nice to see people upset about this.
I literally just got banned from a community cause thsi didn't matter enough, only Gaza. Like, why can't we support saving lives in multiple places
I'd like to note, the community was a politics board on lemmy.ml. You could breathe the wrong way and they'd ban you over there.
Yeah they banned me but kept up the comment talking about how democrats would dismember every Gaza baby to keep the Ukraine war going
So, I'm kinda glad I'm not going there anymore haha
Who is people? I feel like that word is doing a lot of work while in reality, noone cares. At least not anyone that van make a difference.
Yeah, you and I are outraged about it but do you think trump cares? So far there have been hundreds of protesters, sometimes even thousands, whoooohhh, cheeto must be shaking on his fat ass. Quite a few of them were angry cat ladies doing weird dances, and I remember seeing a woman having difficulty trying to say "fuck trump" in public... Yeah, these people surely will make a difference now!
Wake me up when a million protesters in each and every of the major cities in the entire country paralyze the country for a week or so. Wake me up when Democrats organize something that will completely gridlock the US government until Cheeto steps down or something
Until then, I just don't want to hear about "people are really getting angry now!!" No they're not. They don't care, politicians don't care, Democrats don't care.
Good job at being a stick in the mud.
Keep up ruining the mood, everyone appreciates it
You're missing the point that none of "some people made sad face" is going to change anything and I am just flabbergasted that nobody is doing something that will actually enact change. Singing won't change shit, writing on Lemmy won't change shit and in case you ask me what I'm doing, I'm not an American, thankfully.
Americans have to fix this, but before anything, they have to want to change something and from the looks of it, not more than a fraction of a percent want change, and that fraction is for a good part crazies that go singing and dancing, thinking they can enact change that way.
So no, nothing will change
Sorry, but that is the reality we live in now
I agree with you fully.
But I had literally just been arguing about how this actually matters with other people on lemmy. Some people absolutely will not agree on saving Ukrainian lives, so when I saw it on another post I expressed how it was just nice to see someone else write about it.
You had to come in immediately and shit on it for whatever reason.
I never said you were wrong. I just called you an ass
you were banned for a reason lol, you basically said ukraine doesnt matter and only gaza, both matters. if you are talking from an pro-israeli standpoint, sounds like you are, which is also pretty wrong.
Da fuck are you talking about
Now your just gunna make up arguments to fight about?
