Rules (2024-08-30)
- This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don't overly distort the content.
- No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
- Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don't post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don't troll nor incite hatred. Don't look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia's List of fallacies.
- No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism.
- Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add "/s" when you're being sarcastic (and don't use it to break rule no. 3).
- If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
- Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in !yurop@lemm.ee. (They're cool, you should subscribe there too!)
- Don't evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
- No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
(This list may get expanded when necessary.)
We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.
If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don't show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.
If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the mods: @federalreverse@feddit.org, @poVoq@slrpnk.net, or @anzo@programming.dev.

Oh no lets stop helping Ukraine! /s
Fuck Russia and their shenanigans. I mean if it was even them. Who cares?
Not jumping to foregone conclusions is a good idea, no matter how likely a particular actor is, imo. And it's quite likely that we'll have to accept a degree of uncertainty for years. The Nord Stream sabotage wasn't fully resolved either so far.
Yeah, can't have been the guys who were just threatening to disrupt undersea cables. It's gotta be somebody else.
lemmy and its downvotes even though Nord Stream is a good example of transition from "bad Russia" to Ukraine most likely. I'm not saying that Russia is the most likely culprit, but a little caution should be in place.
Yeah but there is the; looks like, talks like, walks like duck
It's probably a duck
As the others already said, it's most probably russia, they just threatened to do it and no one else have the motive. But also I said, who even cares? and still you have to respond a pre made text about uncertainty.
No thanks.
Also, no one is talking about the north stream pipeline (and no one cares at all about it, may it disappear), changing rhe goalpoasts is another bad actor technique, just saying.
It is likely. But the way this thread developed, people were simply jumping to conclusions. I don't like these reflexive accusations.
Huh? No, it was written in the moment.
I just referred to the obvious example for another high-seas sabotage action that wasn't fully resolved yet, from the same war. The reason for that was to illustrate that it may take a while to see through spin.
Not sure which goal posts you think were moved by this.
