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.

What will be done to Israel and it's population will unfortunately not even be even as insufficient as Nazi Germany was. Not unless the world changes the way it deals with a society in the aftermath of a genocide.
There was a means of (false) denial of knowledge within the population that could be used as a means of self criticism in Germany. This denial is mostly untrue; but was still reasonable enough for means of recovery. A means of recovery that still allowed for the idealism of liberal thought to operate within. A means of recovery but definitely not a means of justice.
The levels of recovery and justice that Israel would require at this point would give Stalin himself a moment of pause. Not just in his famous "kill all the Nazi officers" comment. But the level of real and justified "reeducation" that would need to be forced on to the Israeli population would need to expand beyond the level that our Liberal ideas of "freedom" could contemplate.
It's an example of a society that is too sick and beyond repair that the ideas of justice we are taught in the west lack the tools to address.
But I hope we understand this soon. Because the rise of the AFD in Germany should show us that a reasonable denial/acceptance with a reflection on the harms caused is NOT enough. The fascist and racist supremacy needs to be pulled out from it's root.
Those unable to be reeducated need to be removed from society and influence on future generations. Especially those with wealth and political influence. Their children need to be given a chance to repair the harms and make peace without the corruption of a generation indoctrinated by fascist and racial supremacist ideology.
If we don't take into account these larger harms; and instead focus on individual "rights" the seed of fascism with continue to spread. Its a parasite that latches on to the ideas of Liberal thought. It will continue to take root unless the anchors it latches onto are removed entirely.
Edit: I say all of this as an American with complete awareness that our society is following a similar path.
You might want to look at the history of the US, especially what happened to all the natives
I agree, unfortunately everything you write is true, including USA being on a similar path.
At least there is still hope for USA, as for now it's "only" half the population that has gone crazy. I think USA is at a tipping point.
The AFD is only winning because the liberal center pinned their platform on an unpopular war that destroyed their economy, and all to arm the same fascism you speak of.
Western liberals are only NIMBY about fascism. They foster it within our "adversaries", in Ukraine and Russia. Navalny was a fascist. Pussy Riot are fascists.
And sure, Russia has done like in exchange.
The big winner is fascists everywhere.
