edit with NO WARNING I was banned from the Ukraine community… on my own instance
edit2 a post asking why I was removed and banned was also removed, lol this is pathetic
edit3 after reaching out to @[email protected] in direct message he immediately chose to accuse me of going off the rails for insight into sopuli.xyz
edit4 I have not received a response from anyone at sopuli.xyz still about Burstar or the situation, I am considering leaving this instance.

To be clear, I despise people who are antisemitic, I can’t stand it not only is it an evil ideology it reduces complex problems to “blame the jews!” which I think is stupid as hell on top of being hateful as hell. Judge people for their actions not the religions they warp into justification for their actions.

Removed Comment > Don’t try to pretend Iran doesn’t deserve it. Cool so you know that collective punishment is a war crime right? You do understand you just admitted to supporting that casually without realizing that normal people do not think this way right? You aren’t supposed to give the game away that easy lol… What the actual fuck… by supersquirrel reason: r3
Removed Comment So would you consider continually assassinating the Iranians we are trying to make a peace deal with while also repeatedly using peace making processes as bad faith covers for massive bombing campaigns meant to humiliate leadership in Iran that chooses foolishly to respond in good faith to the peace negotiation process… something we just had to do because we are stuck in a war? What a laughable argument. What are you on about? The US and Israel started BOTH recent outbreaks of war against Iran, that is what the facts are. by supersquirrel reason: R3
I demand a specific answer, as well as a reason as mods you chose to silence this discussion instead of weigh in on it. This is an issue DIRECTLY relevant to Ukraine and NOTHING of my criticism of Israel and the US has anything to do with being a Nazi or being antisemitic, I am deeply disappointed in this community.
I take this seriously, I do not like being labelled a Nazi and if you are going to throw that around back up your assertions or stop lazily participating in a narrative of silence around these topics.


I understand; clever and useful version of a social bookmark system :D
Too bad, that you seem to have lost interest in bookmarking articles about Ukraine. Nowadays I have to read Reddit again, since i cannot read your and LaFinlandia’s posts any more. but well, thx again for the months when you provided those interesting links!
All the best wishes!
I promise this is temporary, I have been posting the most important bits about Ukraine I find to [email protected] and to [email protected] for now and I have tentively made [email protected] and I was going to start posting to it within the next couple of days, I intend it to encompass the scope of how I want to share news and information about current world conflicts as a series of actions taken by fossil fuel powers to lock in a dwindling fossil fuel market as renewables begin to ernestly compete with fossil fuels at their core competencies and efficiencies.
I mostly stopped posting on [email protected] because there is a weird blindspot about Israel going on, and I had a similar issue with lemmy world admins and articles about the palestinian genocide so… I am wary to go over to [email protected] because of experience with site admins (not [email protected] mods) on these topics but also the community seems chill there lately so I am trying to post there more.
Also the Bab-El-Mandeb has been drawing my primary focus of late just because of how much worse escalation there can make everything including the war in Ukraine… and I guess too I feel like I have made my major points about Ukraine and we will see if many of them are wrong or right as the details of Vivaldi start to come out and it evolves… right now the tires are hitting the pavement but because of opsec we won’t know or be able to start talking about it analytically right now and once the Ukraine government starts publicizing their counteroffensives more broadly I think is when that conversation takes off like a cambrian explosion (and then will there be an amphibious landing on the Kinburn Spit?). This is just the antecedent moment before that and I guess that is another way of saying that except for lack of ballistic missile interceptors Ukraine is kicking russia’s ass and I am pretty hopeful for Ukraine right now, way more than a year ago.
For now the main strategic message I have for Ukraine is Israel is not your friend and that being happy Iran is getting fucked up because they were instrumental in supplying russia’s flying bomb production especially in the beginning is not the same thing as it being good to get drawn into this illegal war of choice that has crucially for Ukraine denied it what it needs most in the short and medium term… i.e. ballistic missile interceptors.
We cannot see these conflicts as divided into clean categories the way the lemmy world news admins seem hyperfixated on and I don’t trust the [email protected] lead mods to not censor conversation on Israel (though I agree with zero tolerance for nazis and antisemites) when it is uncomfortable nor do I trust the lead admins of sopuli.xyz to really engage with that nuance, though I would love to be proven wrong on that it isn’t a feeling set in stone.
