What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

So you hope that Hamas and Hezbollah continue firing rockets at civilians?

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I hope Israel stops committing genocide and slaughtering civilians.

[–] small44@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

How about ending the colonization? That's the only way to peace.

[–] Rolder@reddthat.com -1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Alright, so what land do Israelis get and what land do Palestinians get? No matter your answer, one side is going to be pissed which leads to more conflict.

[–] small44@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Almost everybody who want a two state solution believe in the pre-1967 borders. I personally prefer a one stste solution thought

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 5 points 2 months ago

A two-state confederation seems good to me. Independent national governance, with bilateral laws for basic things like residency rights across the states and local voting rights based on residency.

[–] orrk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

why is it that everyone who defends Israels right to genocide always ends up calling for an ethnostate?

[–] Rolder@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Probably has something to do with the fact that when the Jewish people try to live in other states, they almost always end up persecuted.

[–] orrk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

IDK man, I'm not seeing a genocidal Romani ethnostate, being a people universally discriminated against isn't something special, and the others aren't founding genocidal ethnostates

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee -5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Israelis can return to their countries of origin.

[–] Threeme2189@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sure bud. Just like all of the Americans can...

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee -2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's only been seventy years, bud. Maybe they should have conducted themselves like decent fucking human beings, but that of course would be the antithesis of the colonizer ethos

[–] Rolder@reddthat.com 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe learn some history? Jews have been moving to/from Israel for pretty much as long as Judaism has existed.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliyah

Usually there are waves when they start getting persecuted in said countries of origin.

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Maybe you should learn some history. Since we're pasting Wikipedia links, here's one about the geonicide that formed the modern state.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba

[–] Rolder@reddthat.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I am aware, I was simply pointing out that you acting like they have only been there for 70 years is a load of horseshit.

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Many of them have been, should I post the Wikipedia link to their fascist recruitment "birthright" tours, since you live defending blood and soil so much?
