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.

MODERATORS
That may very well be, but I don't see how your link is relevant either.
It proves exactly what I just wrote?
I must have higher standards for what constitutes proof than you have.
It's not that I disagree with your point or agree with the post you were replying to. I just don't see how your image supports or refutes any of it.
You don't see how other countries having similar or more popular far right parties is proof that Germany is not uniquely far right?
You posted an outdated picture without explanation, and now you changed your own description of what point you're trying to make ("uniquely fertile ground" vs "uniquely far right"), and now you're trying to turn this around on me.
No, I don't see how an outdated picture that doesn't reflect the current reality proves or refutes anything.
For the record, again, I don't necessarily disagree with you, I don't think Germany has unique circumstances or w/e that make it especially vulnerable to far right ideology. I just think you're doing an awful job and bringing your point across.
And now I'll stop replying with multiple paragraphs to your one-line comments, obviously you're not putting much effort into them.
It's not outdated, it shows the current constitution of European parliaments.
IT'S NOT THE SAME EXACT WORDS!!!!! Wow you totally got me there. It's not like they mean basically the same thing in the context of this argument. "You changed the words, so you changed the argument" is a child's understanding of language.
What current reality? Poll numbers don't necessarily translate directly to votes, and even if we assume that the AfD will gain about 18% in the next election, that still underlines my point because Germany would be situated comfortably in the middle, between Portugal and Finland.
I'm not writing a PhD dissertation, I was lying in bed with my phone and just copied the link because I had seen the image just the other day and knew exactly where to find it. You're on Lemmy, get off your high horse.
Thank fucking god. Everyone who has read this thread is worse off for reading your substanceless comments, you have contributed absolutely nothing except impotent attempts at finding some kind of gotcha. Please refrain from commenting anywhere, forever, so we are all spared your boring, irrelevant mental excretions.
