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.

Since nazis hate jews by definition and assuming Netanyahu's statements are true, Musk is not a nazi.
Are you implying that Netanyahu speaks for all Jews? Israel and Zionism do not equal Judaism and Netanyahu definitely doesn't.
Nah, Nazis hated Jews just because they needed to hate someone to justify their own existence but they'll switch to any other easy scapegoats and work with whoever they need to hold on to power
In terms of practicality Nazi Germany Nazis hated Jews bcs that was already the style at the time (it's easier to use & inflate current public arguments than to seed completely new ones), they just added German efficiently into it's propaganda & weaponisation.
for additional context:
the anti-jewish sentiment in europe goes back to the early middle-ages, and only fell out of fashion (mostly, until recently) after the holocaust and the de-nazification programs in austria/germany.
same goes for anti-roma/sinti racism and anti-black racism; very old concepts, always convenient tragets for the far-right, since the sentiments are difficult to completely eradicate and easily spread by mass media.
People also forget that nazis killed 5 millions non jews. Not to say that there was no systematic killing of jews from being jewish and not to say thst a final solution wasn't planned for jews
That's not the definition, that's an association.
It's like saying that the definition of an American is someone who hates tea. That's a much older association (and the comparison is tongue-in-cheek), but this kind of thing isn't how definitions work.
I've got really bad news for you about how Musk feels about Jewish people.
Like why even give him the benefit of the doubt, you can just look up all the antisemitic shit he's tweeted and retweeted.
