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.

The founding emblem of the Houthis says:
Basically the same as Hamas. But yeah let's keep calling them "rebels" just like we call Hamas' terrorists "militants".
You have to play by the lemmy meta, they are not the bad guys here apparently...
While I support palestine, Hamas is bad.
They did bad things but what matters is context.
You have to start from 1907 if you want to understand the context.
I support a free Palestine and a free Israel and I also condemn the actions of both of them! And I understand the context very well, also you got to go far further than 1907.
If you already digged that deep you know for fact that it was called Palestine buddy.
If you support Israel then be consistent and support Russia taking part of Ukraine as well.
I stand for Palestine to be free and Ukraine to be free as well.
You know why it's called Palestine? Because the Romans kicked all the Jews out and to add insult to injury, they renamed it that way.
Good point! They used to live there.
Does this imply Russia did nothing wrong by taking Crimea? Because it used to be theirs as well not long ago.
So are you referencing history or trying to twist it into your own agenda? Sounds like it's the latter.

That looks like history to me. I present facts.
My point is double standards exists.
If you think double standards doesn’t exist in Palestine-Israel conflict then present facts to support your claim.
Oh double standards exist. Israel is subjected to many of them on the regular.
I'm an atheist but since they're calling to dig into history, and since religious books are technically accounts (though very inaccurate) of what their writers witnessed and knew at the time mixed with superstition, it's always ironic to me how even the Quran never mentions Palestine and instead always says "children of Israel".
Children of Israel refer to a group of people by their beliefs not where they live btw.
It’s like saying I live in atheism.
The discussion isn’t who was there first. It’s about who was there when international law became established.
Lemmy is convinced they are witnessing a genocide because Hamas tells them Israel killed 345751 children. And they want to believe so badly they don't care about anything else.
It does look like this. And although the hamas is exclusively targeting civilians with only death and humiliation in mind and is not warning, supporting or relocating them, there are somehow not the real baddies here.
And no this is of course not an excuse for the civilian losses Israel is causing, those suck too...
At least Hamas build a solid tunnel network for themselves instead of doing anything for the people of Gaza. No one gives a shit about the civilians but apparently the only baddie is Israel...
How do you think we can get accurate data?
Hamas? No. Israel? No. Usa? No.
Trusted independent party? Yes.
