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.

    I absolutely can, you just won’t accept the answer you deserve.

    Go on, sweetie. Is the answer “yes” or “no”

          Still waiting for the non-dishonest question.

          Do you accept that you cannot advocate violence in !world@lemmy.world ? Come on, it’s a yes or no question.

          Make it easy, say “No” so I can permaban you and save the trouble later.

            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.

              Israel got attacked by Iran.
              Israel has the right to defend itself.
              Iran got attacked by Israel.
              Iran has the the right to defend itself.

              Are you comprehending how this works yet? I really don’t think you do.

                Palestinians are slaughtered by IDF and have right to kill IDF soldiers. Comprende?

                Answer the question, you coward.

                  They can do that all they want, off lemmy. If they advocate for it in a lemmy community, it will be removed. Same as if the IDF came in and said “kill 'em all”. Not allowed in the lemmy community.

                  Please learn to differentiate real world rules from lemmy community rules. There is a difference.
