A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

French Polynesia seems to be happy being French. They have their own money and all the benefits of being French citizens.
Israel is a shame among all Jewish people who feel shame
Netanyahu is a war criminal dictator. He will never leave office or else he will have to face justice for all the murder land theft and genocide.
French Polynesia with one relatively good example, but there are others that are rather bad : New Caledonia/Kanaky, Mayotte are maybe the worse i know of. Not Israel-level bad though, but France is clearly not the absolute clean guy here either.
Yair Netanyahu, who lives in the US
Nice hypocrisy bro. I would expect a good spanking for this idiotic behavior, but I guess it won't happen.
Edit: he seems to be a nice guy:
Yet another nazi. Nice.
Lives in the US, you say?
Aww. Little Genocide Jr found an old geography book! Bless him.
Netanyahu and his son are piece os shit people. Benjamin is a war criminal, child killer. Both are biggots and as I said, piece of shit.
Just to be clear, fuck Hamas, fuck Intifada, fuck sharia law, fuck Isreal.
Good argument, but you misspelled Israel as "isreal" haha, I voided your argument /s(because I don't even want strangers to think I'm serious)
F**k! I always pronounce "Isreal", I don't know why.
F*ck grammar!
Just double down and saying fuck English
Notice how those French places are not a total ruin.
Well some more than other, especially New Caledonia and Mayotte which are experiencing big post-colonialism crisis. It's clearly not the Gaza level though, and by far, but hey, french government also has blood drops on its hands.
It's a fair comparison. But when dude is comparing his own genocide to that of others, is he really winning? It just reveals his white supremacist, colonial ideology.
Especially when he's a privileged nazi coward promoting genocide while hiding in Florida.
There isn't any genocide going on those places he pointed, and there hasn't been any for centuries.
Dude is comparing his genocide to history books.
"All of Europe genocided indigenous populations throughout the age of sail! We deserve to do it in the 21st century!"
Why do these people always have inane, yet insufferable sons?
They raise them to be just like them.
Two things can be true at the same time.
They can vote for their independence. But they haven't done that yet, go figure.
They can try, but France will make sure to hold the elections when native peoples are unable to attend then say they're never allowed to have a vote again - as they did in New Caledonia.
The rebuttal might be coming from a complete shitheel, but it doesn't make it any less true.
Oh no there’s another one
