Let me try with a logic gate puzzle:

When any country gets attacked, they have a right to respond. We can agree on that, yes?

Israel is a country.
Israel got attacked by Iran.

Both indisputable facts.

So the response is, Israel has the right to defend itself.

Unless you want to argue:

  1. Other countries have the right to self defense, but not Israel.

or:

  1. Israel is not a country.

or:

  1. Iran never attacked Israel.

Then your argument doesn't make sense. You're trying to twist it into being about the Genocide in Gaza, that's not what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about Israel's legitimate response to having rockets fired at them from Iran and Iran's legitimate response to being bombed by Israel.

When a country gets attacked, they have the right to respond. You could even take it a step further and say they have an obligation to respond. If your country gets attacked repeatedly and you never respond, do you even HAVE a country at that point?

They can do that all they want, off lemmy. If they advocate for it in a lemmy community, it will be removed. Same as if the IDF came in and said "kill 'em all". Not allowed in the lemmy community.

Please learn to differentiate real world rules from lemmy community rules. There is a difference.

Well, I was going to say "someday they'll discover masturbation" but they're clearly already engaging in that. 😉

Removing comments and banning users isn't violence, it's good housekeeping. It's also a requirement of modding a lemmy community.

Again... Lemmy is not the real world. What happens in the real world has no bearing on what is or is not allowed in a lemmy community.

What we are talking about are stupid fucking users who want to get away with comments advocating death and destruction and then acting like they were personally injured when they were told their comments break the rules and were removed.

The rule in !world@lemmy.world and other communities is dead simple: Do not advocate violence.

If you do it, and get your comment removed, go fuck yourself. You deserved it. If you keep doing it, and get temp banned, again, go fuck yourself, you deserved it. If you come back from the temp ban and keep doing it, what in the everlasting fuck do you expect is going to happen?

This is about correcting bad user behavior. Some learn from it, go and sin no more, and become valued members of the community. Others do not and get bounced and nothing of value was lost.

Israel got attacked by Iran.
Israel has the right to defend itself.
Iran got attacked by Israel.
Iran has the the right to defend itself.

Are you comprehending how this works yet? I really don't think you do.

Tell me you didn't read any of the links without telling me you didn't read any of the links.

Again, nothing to do with genocide. When Israel gets attacked by Iran, they have the right to defend themselves. Same when Iran gets attacked by Israel. That's the whole point of being a sovereign state. If you get attacked, you're allowed to respond.

Unless your argument is Israel has no right to exist? You aren't trying to argue that, right?

They are not (yet) trying to commit genocide in Iran. Give it 20 years, maybe. They have their hands full with the genocide in Gaza, then they still have the West Bank, Golan, probably Syria as a whole after Golan, and Lebanon.

Assuming the UN allows it to continue, it's only a matter of time before they get to Iran, but it's not happening yet. But then the UN is pretty fucking toothless when it comes to Israeli war crimes.

Still waiting for the non-dishonest question.

Do you accept that you cannot advocate violence in !world@lemmy.world ? Come on, it's a yes or no question.

Make it easy, say "No" so I can permaban you and save the trouble later.

Hey @Davriellelouna@lemmy.world Looks like you're posting a bunch.

Please note sidebar rule 7:

"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."

"Surely nothing could go wrong."

Because their war crimes already killed the other half? 🤔

Just saw the notes in the books this week. :( Guice was a great artist, did fantastic work on Micronauts.

 

From the official AWA Studios Instagram and Facebook:

"Due to an unexpected misprint, all copies of THEY CHOOSE VIOLENCE #1 are being pulled from shelves ahead of tomorrow’s planned release.

Retailers and readers: we are asking that all copies be destroyed — violently, of course.

A corrected reprint is in process, and we’ll share the new release timeline as soon as it’s locked. We’re just as eager as you are to get this bold new series into your hands — thank you for your patience, your support, and your understanding."

 
 

The headline doesn't really tell you why this is important... so here you go!

To promote the first "live action" appearance of Krypto the Super Dog in the new Superman movie, D.C. is re-printing Krypto's first appearance, Adventure Comics #210. 3 copies contain a "Golden Biscuit" ticket for admission to a Superman premier in Los Angeles.

Because this is a special promo, D.C. made it available to retailers for $0.75 per copy. Retailers could decide if they wanted to sell them for the $3.99 cover price, give them away, whatever.

BUT - Retailers found out AFTER the books arrived, that each copy also includes a free one month trial to DCs online service.

Retailers essentially paid $0.75 a copy to advertise an online competitor to their own physical stores.

Some retailers reacted predictably, refusing to sell their reprint stock, some even choosing to destroy them instead.

BUT - NOW it turns out, this special polybagged edition ALSO contains a misprint of the original book.

A book already in limited distribution because retailers are destroying them.
