2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

Something more than a social media comment...
You know, like a non biased source? Something from an international media organization not just a press release from the country making the claim?
Pretty standard stuff really
Did you try to Google it?
Yep, as much time as I spent googling if bigfoot was real.
But just like with Bigfoot, if you want to say something is true, it's a lot easier for you to provide a non biased source backing it up than for anyone else to check every link online to make sure there isn't proof of Bigfoot somewhere.
Then I suggest you spend $735 for a plane ticket to Cairo. $25 for a bus to Rafah. Probably a hundred to get yourself into Palestine. Hitch a ride to Gaza and see for yourself. Because there is no amount of evidence you can be shown that would convince you.
You could have just said a non biased source that backs up your position doesn't exist...
Or just never made false claims to begin with, same result but that would've been easier for all of us.
Obviously to you everything is a biased source, so there is no reason to try. Good luck with your battle of being right.
Oh yeah....
Because no one else is going to read your comments?
Like, even assuming you're right and the non biased sources exist and you've got them ready to post...
Not posting them just makes it look to everyone else like that don't exist and you're lying.
Probably (and this is a guess because you won't link them) because they don't exist.
Reply all you want, I probably won't reply again unless you make even an attempt at linking a non biased source
I mean, if you are here making a claim then it's your responsibility to come up with evidence to support it.
Telling someone to go research your claim is bad Internet etiquette.
If you don't feel like doing that, fine, then just don't engage.
I'm not going to chase my tail for you guys who will just reject anything you see.
sorry about that,
Then why are you bothering at all?
Like, if you don't think anyone is going to believe anything you say, why are you bothering to debate?
Tried to be nice and answer a question only to find out that the person wouldn't believe any proof. If I would have known that to begin with, I wouldn't have engaged. And if you had read the whole string, you wouldn't be asking stupid questions. So that makes me think I shouldn't have written this answer.
