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 wonder how partying at a music festival was supposed to help the Palestinians.
Seems like it was just an excuse to make rich people feel good about themselves while having a good time.
It's a grassroots festival, it's not some richman party like burning man.
Keep talking out of your ass though.
So it was free? No $3 bottles of water? Lol, you must be pretty ignorant to the world around you.
And people didn't travel from Germany to go there?
I'd feel more sympathetic for them if they spent that money helping Palestinians instead of using them as an excuse to party.
Keep defending rich people feeling good about themselves by doing nothing of value. You seem like the kind of guy who doesn't understand people only have excessive wealth for events like this because others live in squalor.
What the fucking hell are you talking about? A party costing money to attend doesn't make it an exclusive event, and a persons choice to travel to a party, assuming that was the exclusive reason, makes that their own personal choice. You're jumping from one braindead assumption to another to arrive at absolutely wild conclusions.
Lol, I can tell you're innocent to the world around you.
Really? It has nothing to do with wealth? Then I guess the Palestinians could've attended this event as guests of honor.
Lol, it never ceases to amaze me how ignorant you people are yet think you're knowledgeable. Give it a few more years, a bit more life experience, and you'll start to realize that money runs world. If it takes you longer than that, then good luck.
I'm gonna block you now because you don't seem to have anything of value to say. Just trying to bury your head in the sand and mine along with it, lol.
There were poor and average people at this. Poor people attend music as well.
Go for it, you wont be missed.
I'm so confused. it was a dance music festival with civilians. are they not allowed to have those? I fully support liberating Palestine. I also think Israelis should be able to have music festivals where people feel good about themselves while having a good time. what's wrong with that?
You are aware Israel is an apartheid state?
exactly what kind of life do you think average innocent citizens of an apartheid state deserve?
Was Netanyahu democratically elected or not?
Regardless, I don’t think the civilians deserve to die for that but I wouldn’t say they’re 100% innocent either.
They elected right wing extremist to “defend” them from the oppressed state they are invading.
Ben-Gvir is a terrorist.
Although in fairness it’s the US and UN who lined these dominoes up in the first place.
… My answer to you is “lets stop the apartheid and begin reparations so I can condemn all violence”
Rich people don't deserve to be executed, raped, slaughtered, and kidnaped.
BTW: 20% of Israelis are living below the poverty threshold. Israel is the most expensive country in the OECD.
Seriously, do you think before you talk?
