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.

I've seen more people blaming muslim/palestine for this war and say they deserved it than people blaming jews instead of the zionist for causing this war. You all really like to use jew as a criticism shield don't you.
Have you been on the internet in the past week? Sure politicians and newspapers are generally more towards that kind of statement but Lemmy and Twitter are basically flooded with solidarity with Palestine and yesterday I saw multiple threads about this incident with sources that claimed it was Israel which had people being all "of course they would do that" and if the article was about Israel denying involvement the most comments were not believing that.
Some people started spraying stars of David on houses where Jews live in Berlin yesterday and another person threw a Molotov at a synagogue.
There is a shitton of anti-zionist rhetoric out there which fluently merges with anti-semitism
While i acknowledge there's extremist out there and neo nazi joining the fray, and you should acknowledge that the call to violence by Israeli government is indirectly causing the fatal stabbing of a kid and his mother, the thing is, i don't see anything anti-semitism on the post you're talking? All they were doing is doubting the word of Israeli Government because they lied, lied, lied, and lied, but i never see this sort of comment hurling at all Jew, it's only the "other side" that keep bringing jew in whenever israel is being criticised.
Well i wouldn't say "never", but close.
I don't see Jews giving out candy and celebrating on the street when Palestinians are killed. But that's what is happening here in Germany when Hamas kill and kidnap Israelis. Some Palestinians and their supporters celebrate this.
That is because it's not a war between Jew and Palestinian, it's a war between Israel and Palestine, and Israeli are the one celebrating when Palestinian are killed.
Confused? Don't be, just ask yourself why it's always have to lump all Jewish people together when people merely criticising Israel(the government), but when talking about Palestine it's only on to Palestinian(which it should be) .
I don't heard about any celebrations of Jews or Israelis because of the bombings. I am sure you can post some links?
Here are Muslims and/or Palestinians and/or pro-Palestine-protestors celebrating the attack on Israel:

There is more, these are just the first I could find from Germany.
Ohh right before i forgot, and i know it's irrelevant to the point i'm making, but here you go
I'm not even talking about the celebration.
