You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.
Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.
If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

Please, I am begging you to listen to me, I have been fighting against Zionism for decades, I am trying to help you. You are unintentionally spreading far-right Israeli propaganda.
I am perfectly aware of how Zionists weaponise accusations of anti-semitism against critics of Israel, but you are unironically HELPING THEM DO THAT.
This is simply wrong, sorry. Judaism is a religion, but Jews are also an ethnic group. Islam is one of the world's largest religions and it is not a monolith. There are multiple sects of Islam, with two major branches (shia and sunni) and they have very, very different perspectives and laws. This is like saying that unless people are Christian Fundamentalists and follow the Bible's teachings word for word they aren't real Christians.
Please, please, stop this. I am begging you.
Far-right Israeli propaganda argues the exact opposite to what I am, they claim "genetic superiority" based on the antisemitic notion of a "Jewish race" Why exactly would my claim of the self-proclaimed "Jewish State" not even being Jewish be "far-right Israeli propaganda" that doesn't make any sense
Ironically, THAT is not only far-right Israeli propaganda but an antisemitic myth, created by an antisemite to justify the notion of "Jewish inferiority" through their genes later co-opted and inverted by Zionists for the exact OPPOSITE reason to claim genetic SUPERIORITY as "God's chosen people" and give some so-called "ethnic" link to the land of Palestine.
Judaism is a religion, not an ethnic group. If Judaism was an ethnic group, then vast majority of modern day Palestinians would be Jewish since most of them are descendants of the Jews from the land of Ancient Palestine.

Video going through ACTUAL antisemitic conspiracy theories all based on the notion that they're an "inferior" ethnic group
Sorry but if anyone knows anything about Islam it's me, I grew up in a Muslim majority part of London, I used to go to Jummah on Fridays in the local Mosque with my Muslim friends and my Muslim friends would go Catholic Church with me on Sundays as a kid back when I still believed in God.
The UAE is well known amongst Arab countries as the "Israeli Trojan horse in the Arab world" and the Israelis themselves call them "Israeli Arabs" who also fund far-right islamophobic think tanks in the west, calling for the deportation of Muslims from Western countries, having deep ties to far-right neonazi islamophobic groups such as the EDL (English Defence League - formerly the Jewish Defence League named after the US-Israeli terrorist group) led by notorious cokehead Tommy Robinson (aka Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) and Saudi Arabia, who has the 2nd largest nation state lobby in the US consider Iran a threat to their entire existence and lobbied for the Iran war harder than even Israel.
You can wear the mask of a religion or ideology without actually being of that religion or truly believing in that ideology. I can hardly call Trump a true Christian despite him professing himself one. Was Hitler's "National Socialist German Worker's Party" socialist? No.
Also it seems you responded before I edited my comment so I'll paste what you didn't see:
