      I feel like any kind of extremism is bad, I mean, it’s in the name unfortunately. Religious extremism is obviously no exception to that.

        Democracy used to be an extremist position. Questioning the divine rule of kings in favor of letting the plebs vote?

        Completely unthinkable

        So, it’s nuanced

        Extremism is a subjective marker, and I hope you’d never learn that yourself (:

        It is objectively true though that this person’s autonomy was unlawfully disrupted for reasons inspired by herd mentality, magical thinking and egocentrism. That’s before this kind of agenda being of it’s own corporation with pipelines, money and supporters.

    James, 16, screams as a pack of black-clad teenagers drag him to the ground and stomp on his head while an attacker films on his phone in Sydney’s Strathfield Park.

    the gang forces a different 16-year-old into a toilet block and repeatedly punches him while calling him a “f-----” and a “kaffir”, or nonbeliever. Blood runs down his face as he begs, “I’ll do anything.”

    kaffir means infidel / disbeliever

      Kaffir is a racial slur in South Africa, as well.

      Actually didn’t know its origin, before.

            Just once I want someone to run on eradicatimg all religion and banning it’s practice.

            Several socialist/communist countries have had some form of this as policy.

              Several

              I suspect it is exactly zero nowadays.

              Soviet Union was the only country I know that managed to do it in a nice way: not through ban, but through serious discouraging, education, and satire program.

        Everyone who gets banned from Blahaj gets real bent out of shape for it and feel the need to bring it up constantly. 99% of the time said ban was completely justified.

            I’m game!

            Let’s see…

            Last week you had a post removed where the mod, on Lemmy.world, said “Enough of the bigotry posts, next one gets a ban”.

            Another a few months back for breaking the community rules in Dad Jokes (also on LW), with a title of “Muslim people dont seem very liberal”. So we can see which rule that broke.

            On mander.xyz a comment of yours was deleted for a disparaging comment about the disabled.

            I have to say… Yeah, I think they were right, it was probably well deserved to be banned from blahaj.

            @AzuranAurora@piefed.ca for your ref I took a look

                  yeah dude, everyone is seeing it but you, thats why you got banned

                  I didn’t get banned from dadjokes for posting that. Try again. And that post is after blahaj ban.

                  So yeah, clutching at straws at best.

              I imagined the same, I was really hoping they’d spell it out for us so that they’d maybe have a moment of clarity and realize the ban was warranted.

              (Edit - oh, maybe they did respond? I see a bunch of removed comments by ‘TheBat@lemmy.world’ whom seems to be banned now, but im sure the comments I was responding to were from a different user with a bunch of emoji in their username… I don’t know how Lemmy federation works with multiple usernames though, so I’m guessing same user.)

                I see tons of instances of you being an asshole, told to not be an asshole, and continuing to be an asshole leading to MANY bans across the whole of Lemmy. But there’s also a ton of removed comments baselessly shitting on Muslim people.

                Warranted bans. The only unwarranted ones are getting banned from the pro-GenAI comms for being anti-AI and not even using those communities to begin with.

A community for discussing events around the World

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.

  • 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 OCTOBER 19 2025

  • 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.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • 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.
