UK police probe Bob Vylan's festival chants against Israeli military, as US revokes band's visas

Calling for death of any group is not allowed.
You can't stop the mouvement and Palestinians has the right to self defense whatever you like it or not

No, Ukraine can do whatever they need to do to throw off an illegal invasion and genocidal statements and actions.
YOU are not Ukraine, and if you're going to participate here, you will abide by the rules of the community which explicitly do not advocate violence.

Palestinian can't?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]These are contradictory statements, it makes no sense. When you say that "Ukraine can do whatever they need to do [in the face of] an illegal invasion and genocidal statements and actions" YOU are also saying that they can use deadly force. YOU are advocating violence on behalf of Ukraine. But if we flip the bit from Ukraine to Palestine suddenly it breaks the TOS?

We specifically ban calls for violence, if you argue "Death to Apple" in an environment where Apple stores are being firebombed, then yeah, we'd remove those statements too.

Doesn't matter. Calling for violence against any group is against TOS.
Your TOS do not prohibit it. It only prohibit call for violence against racial, ethnic groups and any minorities

I wonder what the term is for anti-palestinian? The equivalent to anti-Semite but for Muslims I guess? Just Islamophobia? That doesn't have a good ring to it. We need a good term to use that Palestinians can play the racist card with for the next 100 years like Israel does.
Whatever it is, the only way to win this battle is for people to start using that new word to call out people who are quite obviously hateful. With enough use of the word over the years, it will have the same shameful effect as what they have done with the word the other side uses

No, chanting death to Nazi was never controversial. It wouldn't even be controversial if it was death to the Russian army .
You are denying Palestinians right to self defense by opposing the chant death to the IDF
wrote on last edited by [email protected]You're bubbled, it's undeniably controversial to chant death to people, especially groups of people. By debating it you agree it's controversial, do you even know what the word means?
Please don't try to say I'm denying Palestinans the right to self defence because I don't want to chant death to their oppressors. My friend, that's a wild statement and you should pipe down
Next you're going to tell me I'm pro Russia because I don't agree Putin should be assassinated

I guarantee you can find droves of zionists that say "free Palestine" implies the destruction of Israel and is therefore antisemitic.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Anyone who thinks those statements are one and the same is delusional and not even worth talking to.
If someone can prove to me they're not a rational human they lose my interest

Good question. It’s a venn diagram of Islamophobia, anti-Arab racism, and anti-Palestinian hate.

Can we rename the Streisand Effect to Vylan Effect now?

Israel will be remembered in the History books the same way Germany circa 1930's is today.
Not if the fascists keep winning.

Oh, don't discount the Racism.
People aren't being investigated by police for criticizing Russia.
If it was only about money, they wouldn't have reacted as they did to Russia's invasion of Ukraine given all the money many were making from Russian fossil fuels and mineral wealth.
The big difference in the reaction to Russia's Genocide in Ukraine and to Israel's Genocide in Gaza (which is way worse both in numbers and in how many of the civilians being murdered are small children) is that in Ukraine the victims are Whites as are the aggressors whilst in Gaza the victims are (brown) Muslims whilst the aggressors are Whites.
At least amongst the power elites, especially in places like the US, UK and Germany, White Colonialism isn't just this old 19th century practice we fortunatelly left behind, rather it's a way of viewing the world which very much alive and widelly held.
Racism is an inherent component of capitalism,
Especially it’s late stage of decline, fascism where those in power obfuscate their culpability by redirecting the ire of the masses towards scapegoated social classes -

I am not, Ukraine is outside this place, what happens outside this place does not need to conform to our rules.
If you're going to participate, you will abide by the rules.

Palestinian can't?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Palestine can also do what they want, they aren't subject to the rules here. The people here will abide by our rules.
I'll make it super simple:
(Lemmy.World Rules (World.Lemmy.World Rules)) . . . (The entire rest of the world, including Palestine, Israel, Russia, Ukraine... everyone)
If you're here, you agree to our ruleset. If you're not here, our rules don't apply to you.

I'm not interested in stopping anything outside bad behavior in the groups I moderate.
I have nothing to do with "the movement" and neither do you.

Not sure, but on a side point I reject any "anti semitism" claim because:
-
usually its just used to try to silence you
-
they're the ones anti semitic because Palestinians and arabs are semitic.
So maybe actually we should re-purpose antisemitism.

So is saying "Ukrainian should beat the Russian army" "removable", then?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]No, because that's not a direct call to violence.
Let me give you an example:
Someone posts this story:
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cyvjj9lmq3zo
"Three killed in Ukrainian drone attack on central Russia"
"Three people have been killed and 45 injured following an attack by Ukraine on a factory in the city of Izhevsk - more than 1,000km (620 miles) from the border - Russian authorities say."
User replies "Good."
That's removable. They are applauding the deaths of three human beings.
Alternately, someone posts this story:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/russian-drone-strike-odesa-deaths-injuries-ukraine/
"Russian drone strike on port city kills married couple, injures 17, Ukraine officials say"
"Russian drones struck the southern Ukrainian port city of Odesa overnight, killing two people and injuring at least 17, Ukrainian authorities said on Saturday."
User responds with typical pro-Russia propaganda. Ukraine are Nazis, they started it, yadda yadda.
That's also removable.
