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.

Only wrong if you think white lives are more valuable than non-white lives
No, Putin owns Trump. Everything Trump does is literally at Putin's request. Same with Bukele. Assad. And yeah, possibly Israel/Netanyahu, it's hard to know how much they know. Because BRICS united those countries to do this to weaken USD globally and thus US control. And each country that helped BRICS will get a military objective from the west, and Iran wants Israel apparently (it's likely Saudi Arabia is a secret member who will get part of Israel along w maybe Egypt). Russia wants everything the arctic ocean touches. China wants Taiwan, the South China Sea, and probably Australia (gold). I habe write ups in my history about it with links proving Trump/Russia connection. Iran and Russia worked together to get Trump elected in 2024:

Bibi got Trump elected same way as Iran Contra hostage situation, by holding the hostages against Biden by proxy so he couldn't resolve the Gaza issues. It's likely Epstein worked for Maxwell whose father worked to fly Jewish kids in bad situations from Europe to Israel. I have a link in my posts from a news article at the time.
So both Russia and Israel have blackmail on Trump, and it seems likely Russia has something on Netanyahu to get him to betray his own people like this. Or maybe he just wants money and power. Idk.
But they are seemingly pawns of BRICS/Russia/China, selling out their own people for greed. My guess is that China will come out ahead. And before you give me a bunch of rich authoritarian propaganda about actually China is great, remember the Uyghers? They had gold. The first genocides of BRICS (called "gold BRICS" in China) were over minority groups that lived on land with gold. And the reason they live there, is bc land that has gold is usually volcanic and dangerous, and usually has severe mercury contamination from the 1800s practices of gold mining. So they coralled these people off to deadly shitholes, and now they are genociding them and enslaving us and moving us to random countries so we can't escape and live outside to make us work those deadly shitholes so they can be entombed in liquid gold while climate change eats us. Sorry, I mean, their bunkers and space ships to save them from bombs will totally work and the Titanic sub wasnt a testament to the wealthy's ignorance of science and deadly hubris

Oh yes. I forgot that ukrainians are black. How silly of me.
Lol. Nice Edit of the post.
They aren't, that's my point
No, you're right. Putin is much worse.
More than 1 million dead in the war.
As bad as the war against Hamas is, it pales in comparison.
Sure, if you believe only whites are human.
Lol. Where did you get that number from?
Oh, you're a genocide denier and a fascist, never mind.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Russo-Ukrainian_War
Sorry that you had to find out this way that you are biased.
And where did Wikipedia get that number from? Or are one of those people who doesn't understand how wikipedia works think it's a source?
You also apparently don't understand how bias works.
You're also a genocide denier and a fascist.
If i'm a fascist for pointing out that you are biased towards a genocidal maniac, then what are you? As opposed to me who doesn't side with tyrants.
No, that's you.
Except that you do. In fact, you even engage in genocide denial to side with tyrants.
I really think you need to go back and read again and think a little bit. I don't condone genocide.
I do, however, call out people for being biased and leaving out information on purpose.
Except for Isreal's genocide in Gaza
You call yourself out?
Yup, there's that genocide denial.
Lol
Yep, Netanyahu
Hard for a genocide denier like you to ''go numbers". You still haven't revealed where your numbers come from, by the way.
Answer the question. Is there a genocide in the west bank which ISN'T controlled by Hamas?
All of the sources are listed, I imagined it would be easier for you to have a look att the article rather that wade through a list of various estimates from here. But ok:

Just because you don't consider soldiers as people, doesn't mean that the rest of us doesn't. They are likely fed so much misinformation that they might aswell be civilians that have been tricked to fight.
So you're doubling down on that genocide denial.
Damn, you really are going to a lot of effort to avoid actually saying where the one million number actually comes from. Is it not a credible source?
Interesting that you're even going so far as to post articles that give numbers an order of magnitude or two lower than what you're trying to claim. I guess you were hoping no one would actually read them and would just assume that the links backed you up? Probably should have tried not to have the numbers show up even in the link text.
Answer the question. Or could it be that you can't face the fact that you've been lied to?
