  • My point is I don’t want to see your French posts, but I want to see your English posts. Mastodon allows users to only show the languages they want. Because you post without setting a language, I’m forced to see all of your posts, whether in English or French. I’m asking you to be a good citizen and set the language so I can filter out your French posts. Bear in mind you keep tagging the Lemmy community, !palestine@lemmy.ml I’m not sure where the confusion lies. If you’re unwilling to do so, just say that and then I’ll block you and move on.

    Ce que je veux dire, c’est que je ne veux pas voir vos publications en français, mais je veux voir vos publications en anglais. Mastodon permet aux utilisateurs d’afficher uniquement les langues souhaitées. Puisque vous publiez sans définir de langue, je suis obligé de voir toutes vos publications, qu’elles soient en anglais ou en français. Je vous demande d’être un bon citoyen et de définir la langue afin que je puisse filtrer vos publications en français. N’oubliez pas que vous continuez à taguer la communauté Lemmy, !palestine@lemmy.ml. Je ne vois pas où est la confusion. Si vous refusez, dites-le-moi, je vous bloquerai et je passerai à autre chose.







  • The government care because they crave power and holding on to it means they can’t become too unpopular. So trying to deter people from protesting and this becoming a bigger thing is their plan to maintain power while pandering to foreign powers.

    The people protest because they understand they have power. Limited as it may be, sometimes you have to stand up for what’s right. Even in the face of adversity.

    Plus we’re close enough to France to be, at least in part, inspired by them.





  • We’re talking about sexual assault here. When you censor and refer to it as SA, you’re minimising the gravitas of the crime. It’s very much a crime committed or at least sanctioned by a state. It’s manipulation. Hamas invited the UN to investigate accusations of them sexually assualting prisoners. On the other hand we’ve seen evidence of Israel sexually assaulting prisoners and there’s no action or sanction. This is allowed to happen because key words that we’re rightfully appalled by are initialised or censored, so we don’t see it as bad as it is.

    But as I said, this is an issue that extends just beyond this particular incident.
