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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Ehhh. Even in Israel's case there's some that are appalled by everything that's going on, including this. Not many, like 15%, but they're there. Any time you get a group that big there's going to be dissenters. There's a far right, a mid-right and some centre-right moderates. No one left of that would want to live there in the first place.
15%? My friend, that's the Palestinian population in Israel. That's literally the aligned Arab coalition party and the far left Jewish party with communist ideologies who want to break the colonial state.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_List
The Palestinians want to live there because it's their ancestral home, the Jewish Israelis who are communist/far left want to either leave (not easy to do) or dissolve the current state and basically renounce their citizenship. To lump them in as the 15% population of Israelis that are dissenters is not very accurate.
Israel is either a small population of far left and therefore don't really identify with the state or nationality, and everyone else is right wing. Which is why it's redundant to say "far right Israeli".
I'm not entirely disagreeing with you, we'll likely never have accurate data on how many remaining Jewish Israelis actually dissent, and it may well be that 15% is almost totally the Palestinian Israelis. I'm well aware almost everyone even vaguely left of centre has either left the country or is trying to (I will admit I have some out-sized sympathy for those who can't), and they were never a major faction to begin with, because most Jews with progressive or socialist sympathies never wanted to be associated with the project in the first place. I'm just saying it's not untrue that there is still a spectrum within the remaining right wing there. "Far right", is still an accurate description of the most extreme subset.
I mean, listen, there's always a spectrum. But my definition of "far right" is anyone advocating for a colonial ethnocentric state. And that's israelis.
A liberal Zionist is still left of far right Likud, but the majority of the colonial project was constructed and given cover by liberal Zionism. And that's far right.
