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 was just banned from an ml community for calling out someone who was pushing this, "you have to give Trump credit for brokering a peace deal in Gaza" narrative.
I guess this is what they mean by "peace"? Naqba pt. 2? Fucking shameful.
I guess your first mistake was expecting anything different from ml
I expect moderators to abuse their power at this point.
It's why I overwhelmingly don't respect their decisions.
Not a terrible idea, but I wish we could bring them over to the US.
Unfortunately the US is too close to Israel and that will just result in Palestinians using the opportunities to harm Americans.
Israel really is an albatross around the neck of the western world. We need to drop them like a bad habit.
They can just take the Nazis’ Madagascar Plan and search-and-replace “Palestinians” for “Jews”.
Here we go again...
Has this kind of thing literally once in history ever ended well?
Pfft. Since when has world superpowers taking land from peoples who have lived there for generations and just giving it to some other ethnic group ever gone badly?
...oh.
Lmao just steal some land and put 'em there - it's home! This has never not worked out well in the past...
The US should talk to some indigenous Americans about how resettling pans out.
Dear imperial propagandists... It's called ethnic cleansing and land theft. They're war crimes being committed by zionists. JFC.
WTF is this crap still on the table? What happened to the Egyptian plan?
America and Israel never accepted it. So far Gazans are in Zionist limbo.
Egypt refused and Trump cut the foreign aid to Egypt.
What a wonderful idea. And it's not like the displaced Palestinians will have displaced another people in 50 years time because everyone involved is brown and therefore culturally homogeneous. /s
Not quite. The places they're trying to resettle them to are all a lot more populous than Gaza. They'd be persecuted there too.
I was not making a serious comment. Reread it but inject as much sarcasm into the tone as possible
I know it's a joke; just being a pedant.
