United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
Are there any other political entities that use that symbol? Perhaps a Nazi entity? I actually notice in the article that they make reference to other political entities.
Oh yeah, come to think of it, Israel, a Nazi state, uses the Star of David as their icon. Given the evidence, it seems more likely the band was actually referencing Israel. I wonder why the author didn't make that connection.
Unfortunately The Guardian, though probably The British newspaper most critical of Israel, has also fallen victim of the zionist lobby's push to conflate anti-zionism with anti-semitism.
It's now practically impossible to say anything in the public space in this country that condemns the policies of the nation of Israel without being drowned out by millions of voices calling you a jew hater.
As can be evidenced by the Maccabi Tel Aviv supporter fiasco where the police who took steps to ban their supporters because of their violent actions have the narrative completely turned 180 by even the prime minister himself.
