Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. 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.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
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.
That's all the rules!

He's not a Nazi, you dumb twit.
Nazis should be terminated, nevermind deported.
I don't believe he was arguing that Mahmound is a Nazi. He's noting that Trump, Elon, the far right etc... defend the hell out of Nazi's and white supremicists with "I'm not saying I agree with it, but I'll defend your right to say it, we're free speach purists", right up until someone with ideology that strongly opposes their views starts also talking... then it's shut him up, get rid of him.
I'm noting that Lemmy in general is perfectly fine with deporting people for their belief systems so long as it's shitty enough and in a flavor Lemmy hates. But there's plenty of flavors lemmey loves.
Lemmy loves communism, loves killing millions of people, especially Jews, loves racism, loves misgendering historical figures, I could probably go on. At this point, makes you wonder what Lemmy actually hates about Nazism, seeing as they love all the core tenets of killing Jews. Maybe it's the fact they did the impossible and left their mom's basement.
In any case, y'all don't care about deporting someone over beliefs, so stop lying.
If your evidence of anti-semitism is the phrase:
From the river to the Sea, Palestine will be free.
Then you're either delusional ( small chance ), or you're anti-semitically trying to link all Jewish people with a state that the largest humans rights organizations have labelled an apartheid state.
Why are you linking the actions of a state to a people? Are you trying to make those non-israeli Jewish people less safe by linking them to the actions of a genocidal apartheid state actively engaged in war crimes?
Why would you do such an antisemitic thing?
From the river to the sea means destroying Israel and killing every infidel there. Do you not understand their goals at all? It's not hard to Google translate their charters and articles.
The largest human rights org is the UN's, and it has Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates as members. They're not exactly unbiased.
