One of the only true 'responsibilities' of Lemmy users is to conduct themselves in a manner that encourages user participation. This is not that and you are getting close to harrassement territory.

Drop it, and complain to the Lemmy/Mastodon devs.

Mods are not Gods. We do not have universal knowledge. If someone is spouting garbage, point why, preferably back it up with evidence, and above all do so respectfully.

Far as I can tell they were arguing that the pipe sabotage was pointless as the pipes were mostly unused, and that it harms relations with a friendly and prominent nation and consequently jeopardizes NATO/EU membership. Sounds like a cogent argument that I personally don't like but am not going to censor unless they are rude.

Next time: show that the pipes were in use (they obviously were), that the perpetrators have not been shown to be sanctioned by the UA government as of yet, and that despite the damage Germany has been a faithful supporter even beyond discovery of who the agents were believed to be. Just do so without using direct insults. Not difficult or unreasonable.

The message wasn't the issue. It was how it was said. Share your opinions freely so long as they aren't pro-invader and are respectful.

Reuters vs Aljazeera... I wonder which is the more believable news source, particularly with regards to Israel events.

edit: Without getting into the weeds Liberalism and Left/Right are usually considered separate spectrums and the definition varies wildly depending on where you're from.

In the future, it's better to link to the original news article rather than a derivative citing it. Particularly when the derivative also needs translation.

MOSCOW, July 30 (Reuters) - Russia's navy began planned exercises involving most of its fleet in the Arctic and Pacific oceans as well and the Baltic and Caspian seas, the defence ministry said on Tuesday...

...Since President Vladimir Putin sent thousands of troops into Ukraine in February 2022, the Russia's Black Sea fleet - the only Russian fleet formation not taking part in the drills - has struggled to adapt to dynamic modern drone warfare and the chief of the navy was replaced earlier this year.

July 29 (Reuters) - Kyiv launched more than two dozen drones on the Russian region of Kursk in several waves of attacks that started Saturday night and damaged an oil depot, Russian officials said on Monday

 

July 28 (Reuters) - Three tanks at an oil storage depot in Russia's Kursk region caught fire as a result of a Ukraine-launched drone attack, acting regional Governor Alexei Smirnov said on Sunday.

MOSCOW, July 25 (Reuters) - The Kremlin signalled on Thursday it was open to negotiations with Ukraine on ending the conflict while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy remains in power despite publicly doubting his legitimacy to rule.

Nothing to get excited about. Although, it seems to me a sign Russia is really starting to feel the pain.
