General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I suspect the issue they're having, much as I am to a degree, is that a country is literally murdering men, women, and children so it can take their land and possessions and most of the world continues going about its business as if nothing is happening. Scaled vastly down, it's almost as if a gang was murdering a neighboring family and the family is screaming for help while the other neighbors do their best to ignore it.
I get why people aren't flocking to Palestine en masse to defend Palestinians, but especially for anyone with friends or family there, it's all bizarre. It's a huge, devastating, pressing issue that weighs on their minds all the time and most of the world doesn't seem to even care.
