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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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 dunno, but I'm pretty sure the right option is not public executions without due process perpetrated by a bunch of religious extremist nutjobs hours after ironically fascist nutjobs stopped publicly executing civilians without due process only they didn't actually stop.
Due process would be great if there was a functioning court and prison system, but Israel bombed all that
SO just murder people at random? Great!
Lol seriously. It's things like this that put me off this site. It's unhinged. If any other state executed people in the streets without due process these same people would be up in arms, calling them fascists. But Hamas do it and it's all good. I'm convinced some users here see any criticism of Hamas as meaning that it's a show of support for the IDF/Israel.
Factly this. Hamas are, morally, as bad as the IDF, they WANT to do to Israelis what Israel has been doing to Palestinians, they just din't have backing fro the the US and the west so they CAN'T. This is in no way supporting or excusing the IDF, it's just not supporting or excusing Hamas either!
If jihadi's had proper infrastructure they'd use it!
No, fuck anybody who support the state comiting the genocide.
Who said I supported any state comitting genocide?
Would you have opposed the execution of Nazi collaborators?
Do you approve of executing accused people without actually proving that they're guilty of being accused of first?
Netenyahu admitted that he is using gangs that was involved in the stealing of food and helping them in the genocide.
That doesn't mean people should be executed because they're suspected of something, their guilt needs to be proved first.
Hamas are not idiots, you crazy if you think Hamas is going to execute civilians and make the majority of Gazan revolt against them. I can’t tell people who was stripped from all justice for 77 years about how to deal with the collaborators helping the enemy in a genocide. You can ask for holding Hamas accountable once justice is restored, the occupation end and Israeli leaders are held accountable too
Hamas are religious extremist nutjobs who want to do to Israel what the IDF has been doing to Palestine, they just don't have the resources to do so. My heart goes out to the innocent Palestinians caught in the middle but that doesn't excuse or support the awful people fucking them over from both sides!
Hamas accept the two state solution with pre 67 border. Stop acting like Palestinians including Palestinian extremist are the reason why Israel is occupying them. You just an hypocrite who would use the same rhetoric if you lived during the Nat Turner revolts or revolts against unarmed settlers that stole first nations land .
I support all sides to be held accountable after Palestine is free and yes including Hamas
No I'm not and that's not relevant
Nearly all of those executions were carried out with due process.
I don't support public executions of anyone.
I can’t tell people who was stripped from all justice for 77 years about how to deal with the collaborators helping the enemy in a genocide. You can ask for holding Hamas accountable once justice is restored, the occupation end and Israeli leaders are held accountable too
Yeah, it's a fucked situation; personally I don't think masked men shooting blindfolded and bound people in the public square is the best solution, but you're right that it's not my place to decide.
I don't think there's anything wrong with forming opinions and considering alternatives though.
Those are the gang that Israel made them escape from jail to assist them in the genocide and if they was jailed back Israel when they resume the genocide will liberate them back
No. I will not excuse Hamas being fucking awful for one second just because the IDF have been being fucking awful for a long time!
You support people who assisted Israel in the genocide. You just an hypocrite
No I don't
Fucking dumb question
Please. There's never been an anti-colonial movement where collaborators weren't punished harshly. Nelson Mandela's ANC executed collaborators in famously brutal fashion.
And that makes it fine for a bunch of religious extremists to murder people in the streets?
The IDF was involved???
What a dumb comment
Yes, that's usually how you deal with collaborators and snitches when you're at war with a much larger enemy. I don't see what their religion has to do with it, Hamas is a nationalist anti-colonial movement, not an Islamist one.
Their reason for existence is to do to Israel what Israel has been doing to Palestine, they just don;t have the backing and resources to do so. Hamas deserve not one iota more respect or forgiveness than the IDF. The innocent Palestinians getting fucked over six ways from Sunday in the middle are where sympathy goes, don't mistake them for Hamas any more than you mistake the Israeli government for Jews worldwide
They're the Resistance Française of Gaza, except the (new) NAZIs occupying their land have been there for 7 decades instead of a mere half a decade (plus this time around Britain and the US are part of the Axis alongside the NAZIs), hence their actions are more desperate.
Remembers those WWII films were the Resistance Française, when they caught them dished deadly justice to filthy French Colaborationists that had helped the evil NAZIs either by snitching others to them or even by acting as an auxiliary militia for the occupying NAZI forces? Remember cheering for the Resistance and feeling righteous justice from them dealing with the people who were so evil that they betrayed their own neighbours and even families to the NAZIs?
Morally this is exactly the same situation.
Nazi is not an acronym, it doesn't need to be capitalised like that. Also this isn't a film, this is religious nutjobs murdering people (possibly at random or for dubious reasons) in retaliation for fascist nutjobs murdering people (definitely at random and for dubious reasons).
Hamas wouldn't need to exist if Israel ended their apartheid and genocide of Palestinians. There is no "both sides" here.
Not relevant
Oh, of course, Hamas should just turn them into the police. Silly me. Oi Hamas, this Britbong bloke says you ought to call the fuzz!
What a fantastically dumb statement. Well done.
Cool story, still extrajudicial slaughter.
EDIT: Oh right, you're from .ml so obviously you support fascism when it's for your team. I should've known.
Fantastic, my dude, good luck defeating the "Hamas fascists", and the 85% of the world population that supports their actions. You've done a great job by sitting on your ass while a genocide is committed so far. Anything else? 🤨🎤🗑️
Can't attack my argument so you attack a fictitious version of me instead. You clearly hold the moral high ground here /s
Also lmao at "85% of the world supports public executions and beheadings" you absolute psychopath xD
Maybe you'll try harder on your next account.
oh no, it's someone with two accounts on two of the largest servers for the two main pieces of software mimicking Reddit! what a scandal!
