United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Germany does it the best
In Germany we are at a point where it's difficult to identity antisemitism became everyone who doesn't actively support the genocide in Gaza is called an antisemite
Same as everywhere else
...in the western power block, a relatively small portion of the world(despite ridiculously appropriating the name ' intenational community ') that now has another good reason to be hated by the rest of the world.
They aren't antisemites. They stand with Israel /s
We did it the best from 1933-1945, but currently we are nowhere near the american police state.

ACAB. Doesn’t matter where or when in the world we’re discussing. ACAB is universal.
While this is true, there are still various degrees of how much the police is used as a tool of oppression and the shit we see in America is miles away from what we see in Germany.
I’d argue the Stazi were far more effective than the Gestapo, and that German police stating peaked in the mid 1980s.
Fair enough with the Stasi. I could see how why, but I Am not capable of comparing the effectiveness of both.
The Gestapo relied almost entirely on public informants. The Stasi had an extensive and qualitative surveillance apparatus.
