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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.

MODERATORS
Your post was removed for continued Islamophobia and it doesn't matter how many links you provide because the vast majority of the 1.9 BILLION Muslims in the world ARE NOT VIOLENT.
For guns, I absolutely do make the same argument. Take the AR-15 for example, notorious villain in anti-gun communities, ban worthy, etc. etc.

"The AR-15 is the Weapon of Choice for Mass Shooters."
Best estimate is there are over 20 million of them in the United States. I saw another estimate putting it around 44 million.
Problem: The vast majority of mass shootings do not involve an AR-15. Pistols are far easier to obtain and conceal.

So what you're telling me is that the religion of islam is a peaceful one? That doesn't kill LGBTQ+ people, that allows them to exist, that doesn't stone women or have honor killings or is fine with womens rights?
All of these things you're under the impression that Islam tolerates?
Everything that i have posted has been against the religion, that's not islamophobia. I say the same shit about christians and they're diddling of kids, but I'm betting I wouldn't be called out for being christianphobia if I did though.
Also i forgot you're actually one of the sane gun owners around here... I will say others who are posting here are %100 not in agreement with you on this though. All gun owners to them are baby killers.
I'm saying the vast, vast majority of the 1.9 billion people who identify as Muslim are, in fact, peaceful people. If they weren't, the problems with religious violence would be a million times worse.
