All from in this thread in !world@lemmy.world 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, @theacharnian@lemmy.ca (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 @DeathToTheIDF@lemmings.world 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.

    nobody asked

    I think i mightve waaaay upthread, but you did kind of explicitly say a little more recently.

    my personal opinions dont factor in

    Then let a large language model do it. Or is that a complete fucking shit show every time someone tries?

    only countries can do violence

    See, this is where i think we disagree on that. Youve got a very 19th century view of war here. I think if you skipped the bullshit show trials til you were mostly done, a much leaner organization could get that done. I dont think state monopolies on violence are worth sacrificing an entire people to.

    I think if the zionists started seeing their foreign tourists killed, their food imports poisoned, even their weapons backfiring at more than the usual rate, this could be actually ended.

    Edit: i dont even think most of it needs to be tightly coordinated. I think if they’re just spontaneously murdered coming back from getting beer at a stadium, and everyobe stops helping them to cheer, once the annoubcer clarifies who/why? If a foreign made toy car gets made out of an ingot of something originally labelled ‘drop and run’ and a little ‘free palestine’ engraved on the inside, gets delivered to a day care the zionist parliament sends its kids to? I think those deaths woukd do more to ending the genocide than a million soldier-on-soldier deaths. Saying that cant be called for is advocating for continuing the genocide.

    ukraine, so must win election

    Yeah they’re super fucked. It’s not cool. Bullshit rigged election wont change that. Europe may or may not. Not placing any bets.

    But im not sure the russian army needs to fall here. I know at tye start of tgis shit show, it was conscripts who didnt want to be there being driven by a massive machine of domestic repression. I think, unlike the zionists, there’s a small handful of old rich shit heads in russia, and maybe a couple buildings full of bureaucratic momemtum, that could have gone away and solved the whole thing in a few hours, and other problems besides. Maybe still are.

    And i think the massive numbers of dead, of fields polluted with bombs, of more expensive sunflower seeds, of production and greenhouse gas and horrible trauma turned towards killing each other, is largely the outcome of your statist ideology.

    The idea that wars are between armies, despite civilians doing most of the suffering. The whole general map-game-y bullshit view of geopolitics.

    The idea that the government, even a repressive totalitarian government, can be equated with its people.

    The idea that ‘leaders’ are somehow sacred and inviolable, and that those who build and operate the machinery of power are personally blameless

    Please don’t mention ‘trials’ to me; you know thats bullshit fantasy nonsense. Systems of strict axiom breed lies; ask anyone raised by strict parents.

      I would literally rather open my own wrists than turn over any part of my daily responsibility, in real life or on lemmy, to a large language model.

      We used to have a bot that posted fact check stats in every post, people hated that. You think they’d stand to be moderated by an LLM? Yeah, that’s NEVER going to happen, at least not here.

      Look at all the problems algorithmic moderation causes on YouTube or Facebook. Granted they’re so many times bigger than lemmy it’s not even funny, but I also don’t see any other way for them to do moderation due to their size. 🤷‍♂️ It’s damned if you do and damned if you don’t.
