All from in this thread in [email protected] about a chant at a British music festival where an artist said “death, death to the IDF”.
After other users were quoting that chant in the comments and had comments removed and banned, the hero of our story, @[email protected] (appearing as “acargitz”) pointed out that under international law, fighting an occupying force is legitimate. But apparently not under world news rules, as their removed comments and the many explanations from mods make clear in the thread.
Equally against the rules is the call for the eradication of an organisation or business, even without an explicit call to violence against individual members of the business.
In the same thread: user @[email protected] had comments removed for being anti-American “(again)”, though I couldn’t see the first time. It’s not even clear to me how the removed comments were anti-American.
Bonus points for the “DC Comics” removal reason. Though this seems to be incompetence, rather than malice.
Answer the fucking question. Simple yes or no will suffice.
I can’t answer yes or no to a disingenous question asked in bad faith:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loaded_question
You can sweetie, you just don’t want to 🤣
I absolutely can, you just won’t accept the answer you deserve.
Come into one of the communities I mod preaching violence, you’re going to have a bad day. Suck it.
Go on, sweetie. Is the answer “yes” or “no”
Ask a question honestly and I’ll give you an answer.
When did you stop beating your significant other?
I did. Is it a yes or no, sweetie?
Still waiting for the non-dishonest question.
Do you accept that you cannot advocate violence in [email protected] ? Come on, it’s a yes or no question.
Make it easy, say “No” so I can permaban you and save the trouble later.
Why are you slapfighting?
Answer the question, you coward.
Yes, which is why comment “Israel has a right to defend themselves” should be banned as it is a direct call to murder yet more civilians including children. On the other hand calls to kill IDF should be allowed as long as they refer to Palestinians - as they are allowed to kill IDF soldiers under international law.
You should ban yourself for your genocide apologism.
That isn’t a loaded question lol, per your own link, it is a direct question asking for a clarification of your morals. You’re just too dishonest to engage with it.
I will absolutely engage in good faith questions. That’s a bad faith question which has been asked and answered.
Lemmy communities are not the real world and promoting violence is not accepable in them, full stop.
They don’t like that answer because it’s the truth.
You literally didnt answer their specific question you gaslighting prick
Their specific question is dishonest, it doesn’t deserve an answer.
The answer is as stated:
Our Lemmy communities ban advocating for violence. If you want to do that, take it outside our communities.
You’re projecting your dishonesty and you just now admitted you lied previously when you claimed you answered it.
The question has been answered. It’s a disingenous question that has no bearing on any lemmy community.
It hasn’t been but keep chanting it so your mind stays calcified, ya fucking moron
