I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed
edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual
Yes, Israel started as a colonist power, and the Palestinian people didn’t yet have a national identity.
I hate this, though, since you can just keep going on and on about who started what and who owns what considering the history of the region. I love this music video since it really shows just how extensive this history is.
Yeah I know, and it almost seems hypocritical since we all basically come form colonial powers. but we used to to horrible shit all the time. We know better, we can be better. And to do it in the name of religion truly disgusts me. Like it or not, the tides are turning.
the only way for peace though is meeting both ways.
i think a good start is Hamas and the Bibi government being dissolved. Good luck with that though
Yeah I’m with ya there, that’s the first step I’d like to see. The right wing in power now scares the bejesus out of me and has the possibility foment generations of hate.
He would lose if there were elections.
