How deep are they willing to guzzle that Nazi boot?

    Ok, lets say theres a news story about people calling for violent resistance against fascists.

    Can that be posted?

    Can commenters make their own statements of support for this, in that thread?

    This is basic logic, these rules do not make any damned sense, they are obviously contradictory when applied in the manner you are suggesting.

    Also uh no, no .world does not actually have any specific rule that deliniates the distinction you’ve invented about violence being ok in news posts but not in comments.

    Find me those rules.

    Also… if? IF you were opposed to fascists?

    Implying this is a stance that requires deliberation and contemplation?

    Pretend you’re a brown skinned American citizen who just got fucking illegally kidnapped on fabricated charges and deported to a foreign death prison complex for the rest of your life, which will probably be quite short.

    This has already fucking happened.

    Does this remind you of any historical events…

    … Hendrik, from an obviously German lemmy instance?

    Anything involving gas chambers, ovens, work camps?

    Anything ringing a fucking bell?

      Dude, calm down a bit, we’re not enemies. I’m on your side, we just talk a bit differently and probably live far away from each other. I’d send you a big stick or even help you cudgel the fascists if I were in the States. And yes, as a German I know how nazis look like and I can recognize them easily.

      Here are the rules: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/#1-attacks-on-people-or-groups
      It’s the first one: “[…] We do not tolerate serious threats or calls for violence.”

      Concerning your first question:

      lets say theres a news story about people calling for violent resistance against fascists. Can that be posted?

      I think yes.

      Can commenters make their own statements of support for this, in that thread?

      I think you’re trying to shoehorn something in here. It’s complicated. Is this “support” a call to do something? Is it intended to motivate people to join in as well and it includes violence? Then no. They cannot do that. Otherwise yes (unless it contradicts another rule.)

      Btw, here’s your MAGA shirt. I wouldn’t wear it: https://www.amazon.com/Tree-Liberty-Thomas-Jefferson-T-Shirt/dp/B094H1VR7Z

        It’s the first one: “[…] We do not tolerate serious threats or calls for violence.”

        Cool.

        So anyway:

        Also uh no, no .world does not actually have any specific rule that deliniates the distinction you’ve invented about violence being ok in news posts but not in comments.

        You’re not proficient enough in English to understand what I’m saying.

        You’ve suggested I buy a fascist shirt, while at the same time saying you would help me hit American fascists with a cudgel, when they all have body armor, military assault rifles, and armored personnel carriers.

        … Despite the fact that I was not even the person who said the tree of liberty quote at all, but you keep acting like I did.

        You’ve repeatedly insulted me multiple times by way of your poor grasp of English, I am bailing out of this conversation before I am as rude to you as you have been to me.

          Sure, I did not intend to insult you. The t-shirt was a reference to my earlier comment where I intended to say: The quote which started the discussion isn’t even anti fascist, but sadly also in use by the fascists. That was to contextualize what we’re talking about, and only loosely connected to your statements.

          You really can’t expect me to answer to like 5 different questions and not make one omission. I expected you to know the difference between “call for” and “report on”. But I respect your wish to bail out. I wish you the best. Sincerely. And my solidarity is with you. I wish there was more I could do. A free America is important to all of us.
