Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

MODERATORS
What a pedantic and useless argument. Palestinians want a sovereign state. The international community recognizes that they have a right to one. However, Israel violates that right every day therefore deny Palestinians a truly sovereign state.
Honestly, stop pretending you know anything about the plight of the Palestinian people. You showed your ignorance by claiming there was not violent conflict immediately prior to October 7th.
So you just accept Israel's claim that it isn't sovereign?
Because I don't.
You were wrong about the state of the conflict prior to October 7th. You refuse to admit it and now you want to sidestep your own ignorance through semantics and pedantry. Have fun with that.
Got it. You do not think Palestine is a sovereign nation.
If you're unwilling to admit that you were wrong about the state of the conflict prior to October 7th then it's pretty reasonable for me to assume you're arguing in bad faith.
If you really want me to explain to you the difference between between the right to sovereignty and the material existence of a sovereign state I can. I could even provide you with articles written by Palestinians on the topic. However, why should I do that when it just seems like you want to pretend you've won some internet argument for the sake of your own ego.
Again, I get it. You don't think Palestine is a sovereign nation.
If you’re unwilling to admit that you were wrong about the state of the conflict prior to October 7th then it’s pretty reasonable for me to assume you’re arguing in bad faith.
And if you're unwilling to admit that Palestine is a sovereign nation, then it's pretty reasonable for me to assume that you are agreeing with Israel on that point.
Why won't you admit you were wrong? I'm not engaging further after this unless you address the question. If you can't then I suggest you get offline and see a therapist to deal with your own insecurities.
And now you are violating our incivility rule.
My refusing to do what you demand is not an excuse to violate rule 5.
I literally think you might need help though. It's not uncivil nor an insult to suggest someone go to therapy unless they mean to belittle people with mental health issues which I certainly do not. It's not something to feel ashamed about either especially given the world we live in.
Do you, Dr. Freud? Based on a few text-based interactions?
Amazing. Psychiatrists take more time, but you've figured out the shortcut.
I think it's generally good practice to go see a therapist every once in awhile if you can afford it and even if you feel fine. I'm not trying to diagnose you and therapists don't really do that either. But yes, seeing the way you've interacted with me and others I think is enough for me to give you that advice.
Based on what, exactly? My refusal to concede to something you demand? You're not that important.
I'm not important. Feel free to ignore me if that's what you really want.
And yet your whole psychoanalysis is apparently based upon my refusal to do what you demand.
I actually recommend going to someone who specializes in CBT and not psychoanalysis. That said if the latter is all that's available to you it's generally better than nothing.
And what, specifically, are you diagnosing me with that requires CBT? Not following your orders?
CBT helps plenty of people live happier and healthier lives. You don't actually need to be diagnosed with any mental illness to find it useful.
That's not an answer. What, specifically, do I need CBT for?
You don't recommend it to everyone you talk to. So why me?
This is starting to seem like you're trolling.
Ask yourself, are you happy arguing with some something this deep into a comment thread? Are you really getting anything out of it? Because if the answer is no but you find yourself still engaging, it's probably worth talking to a therapist about.
None of that has anything to do with cognitive behavioral therapy. I don’t think you actually know what it is.
So either tell me specifically what you claim I need CBT for or stop trolling a moderator. Your choice.
CBT is useful as a way of addressing all sorts of issues someone might be dealing with. It's very common for therapists today to incorporate aspects of CBT into their practice regardless of the client. It's not just something used to treat severe mental illness.
Got it. You're trolling.
Ever since I started paying women to step on my cock and balls with high heels my life has gotten happier and healthier.
