I'll try to see if I catch examples happening

Sources like The Guardian, Reuters, Telegraph, CNN, BBC are sometimes allowed and sometimes removed on rule 1.

The latter case is usually evident while lurking and finding a deep long comment thread. Sometimes one user there has deleted messages and there's another's rule 3 content comments left. Apparently these cases seem to usually be mutual rule 3 but it looks like they're treated differently.

Yup. Surprised me as well. I've thought of it being an ok enough source, just apply normal media criticism. But Lemmy doesn't have transparency on whose mod decision it was or how to report those which seem to be on false premises or accidentally... Maybe some day.

The Guardian is not allowed on this community as per rule 1

Good call. I don't know if the new information about the release from being jailed is fake news, here's an older source

Global press really. It's been fascist ever since everywhere

Yea lol, every other day it's that "collapse imminent" and every other time it's "turning around and winning everything"

How west we talking about? Europe has an existential self-interest, USA has a capitalist military industry profit self-interest. Even going further to the west, China's involvement serves self-interest.

Russia is in a war economy and the USA is based on their military industry. An endless war of attrition is what the capitalist machine seeks.

Musk supports Russia so what's the play here

Europe had a view in the 90s–00s that trade can be a vehicle for enforcing peace. That plus capitalist greed let Russia invade Georgia and Crimea before that view changed overnight too late. Similarly countries turn a blind eye on what China is doing

Random acts of praxis or can the people get organized? We'll see
