Banned for reporting antisemitism
A user on lemmy.world/c/aboringdystopia stated that Jews should be ashamed of themselves for the actions of Israel.
I rhetorically responded "Why?" and reported the antisemitic comment.
Reporting them was deemed "Trolling" by the moderator, who believes there is nothing wrong with shaming all Jews for the actions of Israel because some Jews state they are ashamed of it themselves.
I explained the moderator why the comment was antisemitic. In a twist of events, they then permabanned me, deleted all my posts from the comunity and told me I would feel more at home at .ml.
PTB, BPR, and even worse than that: censorious enforcement of groupthink (for banning you).
BUT: others are correct to point out that it was wrong of you to report antisemitism in this particular case. The comment in question was certainly a bit iffy, but in a lawyerly sense it's on the right side of the line.
After thinking the comment through I've not been able to come to any conclusion except it implying that Jews should feel ashamed for the actions of Israel.
A commenter below tried to explain it to me by comparing it to Germans in Nazi Germany... which that basically proves my point of them believing that Jews are responsible for the actions of Israe, by comparing Jews to Germans in Nazi Germany instead of Israelis/Zionists..
Even the people who tried to debunk it inadvertedly ended up proving my point.

After Israeli settler Yinon Levi allegedly shot and killed Hathaleen on Monday in Umm al-Khair, a village in the occupied West Bank, the critical care nurse gave Hathaleen four rounds of CPR. She cradled his head in her hands, checking his pulse and whispering “You’re OK,” as he bled out, the nurse told The Intercept. The medical worker asked not to be named because they fear for their safety. Hathaleen was then taken away in an ambulance, where he died before reaching the hospital.About 20 feet away, and minutes before Hathaleen was shot, another Israeli settler in an excavator tried to destroy the village’s main water pipe, according to media reports. A local man named Ahmad, Awdah’s cousin, was struck in the head with the excavator’s arm and nearly knocked unconscious after he tried to stop the driver.
Turning to Ahmad after Hathaleen was taken away, the nurse administered a neurological exam; he was severely concussed with diminished mental function before he too was taken to the hospital in an ambulance.

On Thursday, more than seventy women from Umm al-Kheir—ranging from teenagers to the elderly—launched an open-ended hunger strike until Hathaleen’s body is returned by the Israeli police. The hunger strike is also in protest of the ongoing detention of several residents of the village, including Hathaleen’s brothers and cousins, following his murder.Hathaleen’s killing was just the latest violent attack on the Palestinian community in Masafer Yatta, a string of villages and hamlets in the south Hebron hills. For years, residents of Masafer Yatta have faced repeated attacks, expulsion orders, home demolitions, property destruction, harassment, arrests, and killings by Israeli soldiers and settlers. Their struggle to preserve their homes and land was the subject of the Oscar-winning documentary, No Other Land, which Hathaleen helped make.
Hathaleen’s killing on Monday shone yet another spotlight on the wanton violence Palestinians face on a daily basis from Israeli settlers and soldiers, who operate with blanket impunity—both in Masafer Yatta, in particular, and the occupied West Bank, in general. Over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli soldiers and settlers in the West Bank since October 7, 2023.

US intelligence uses Microsoft Exchange zero-day vulnerabilities to attack Chinese military-industrial enterprise's email servers
US intelligence uses Microsoft Exchange zero-day vulnerabilities to attack Chinese military-industrial enterprise's email servers: report
The Cyber Security Association of China on Friday released details of two cases related to frequent cyberattacks and espionage by US intelligence agencies targeting China's key industries, issuing security alerts for critical sectors.www.globaltimes.cn
It's just insane how big of a dropped ball non-Western software development seems to be. If they're not going to write and use their own software for everything, then don't even bother using software! Even some outdated insecure system developed in the 80s would be better than using the latest US software for any kind of infrastructure.
I get why it's still an issue, because it's really hard to make an entire country of 1.4+ billion people all get on the same page about best practices on anything. Imagine getting American software developers to adopt stringent security practices. The last company I worked at we were still adopting TLS transport within the company VPN. So if there is a current push in the US to adopt modern security "hygiene" (security standards that the US created), then I can imagine how much harder it is for other countries. And there are a lot of things required to use the latest stuff. You have to have a good software development and release process so you can stay on top of security fixes. And that requires its own infrastructure. And that infrastructure requires its own infrastructure. And managing security-related stuff is a pain in the butt.
I often feel like server software is just a mistake in general and running software on devices other than personal computers should be kept to a minimum. Which is the opposite of how the software industry has developed. But maybe in the future, there will be some kind of acknowledgement and transition to more "local-first" software. Even free software enthusiasts fall into that trap because their expertise comes from the industry they work in which is all server-centric.
Email, for example, should be replaced with something more similar to Signal messaging system. More end-to-end encryption, etc. and most servers should act as simple routers or always-online caches of data in transit.
Servers are such a liability and the whole ecosystem is so messy and complicated. At least with desktop/phone programs it's a bit easier to reason about their security (in some ways).
Chinese uses Microsoft in their military??????????????????????
EDIT: It was a military-adjacent business, now that I read it more closely. Still really sloppy to use closed-source software developed by the only country that could threaten their military (without using nuclear weapons).

You know more than one country can be dangerous, inhumane and unjust, right?
You know that being from a country doesn't automatically mean you agree with everything that country's government does, right?
You are from that country, tho. So do something about that or shut up about the foreigners.
Not to mention, "Tiananmen Square massacre" is a fabrication from US and their UK media lackeys in the same way they fabricated the beheaded babies and the Nayirah testimony and literally too many instances to name.
What happened was a violent clash between the government and US sponsored terrorists trying to hijack a wide-tent protest which dissipated quickly after the violence started. The US kills and has continued to kill more people than that on a weekly basis for decades, without even the veneer of legitimate self defense. Kent State massacre, the entirety of COINTELPRO, MOVE bombings, the killing of the Ferguson protesters.
There's one person in jail RIGHT NOW for every 200 in the US. Cops kill black and latino people on camera, unprovoked, following horrible displays of cruelty, then flaunt it in your face that you're gonna pay for them to do it again.
Shut up about china or anywhere else in the world that isn't funded by your government fr.
You are from that country, though. So do something about that.
Are you assuming I haven't because no one has stepped in and singlehandedly fixed all of the US's problems? What are you expecting?
shut up about the foreigners.
You mean foreign governments. I have no issue with any group of "foreigners", just the governments that brutalize them.
Speaking of, why are you talking about America at all, while telling people to "shut up about the foreigners".
Speaking of, why are you talking about America at all, while telling people to "shut up about the foreigners".
Peak gringo deflection. Because unlike USians speaking about countries they're actively, openly sabotaging, the rest of the world should be able to criticize the one government trying to fuck us all in the pursuit of having everything for its ruling class forever. I'll stop talking about the US the moment y'all fuck off and stop stealing all our wealth through your financial and military apparatus, or spreading torture and terror through proxies because it's "the strategy" only to use it as an excuse to talk about us like animals. I'd be happy to never again remember your shit stain of a country.
It isn't just the government, it's also the fact that the US is the world's imperial hegemon, and a settler-colonial state. There's a large portion of workers bribed by the spoils of imperialism and settler-colonialism into complacency with the status quo, or even enthusiastic support. The oppressed black, chicano, indigenous, and other nations within the US are in general not just fucked over by the capitalists and state, but by their fellow workers.
It's important that we identify the core issues with the US Empire, and that we don't white-wash its genuine problems away and push them all on the state or the bourgeoisie. The working class needs to unite, but to truly do so, we have to recognize and align on anti-imperialism and decolonization, both of which require a large portion of the working class to work against their own class interests.
What happened was a violent clash between US sponsored terrorists trying to hijack a wide-tent protest which dissipated quickly after the violence started.
Can you support this claim with evidence?

They're saying this as a projection. Europeans generally tend to believe that EU countries are independent, sovereign and in control even when the US routinely puts them in their place and reminds them who's at the bottom licking the boot.
They will fingerwag, they will clutch pearls, they will be be perfunctory in the hopes to create an image that they have the bargaining chips in "negotiations" with the US, but inspite of it all, so long as the living conditions in Europe are good enough for the Europeans, and as long as wars, genocides, resource expropriation, modern-day slavery, comprador installations and other forms of imperialism applied on the Global South helps to refill their coffee mugs in the morning, and as long none of that is happening in the same manner to them, they won't mind being the US' dog for the foreseeable future.

I only mention this because everytime arch is mentioned steamOS gets dragged up as if its the same thing when they're worlds apart.
Using the AUR via distrobox can be done on every distro.
Yes but thats not relevant. Its like me saying windows users dont use the AUR and then you saying um actually im on windows and I run arch in a VM and use the AUR. Like ok thats still the AUR being used on arch.
Like the topic is AUR malware and someone was like arch users and steamOS users. But steamOS users dont need to be worried or lumped in because they aren't using the aur unless they're also using arch through vm or distrobox or whatever.

Wall Street opens lower as Trump tariffs and weak jobs report hit global markets
Employment growth across America has been much weaker than previously thought over the last three months – a sign that the US labor market may be cooling.
The latest non-farm payroll, just released, shows that US employment rose by just 73,000 in July, rather weaker than the 110,000 new jobs expected.
But the big shock comes in the latest revisions to payrolls, with previous estimates for both May and June being revised sharply lower.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics now estimates that just 19,000 new jobs were created in May, 125,000 fewer than the 144,000 previously estimated.

Putin offers no hint of concessions as he says he wants ‘stable’ peace in Ukraine
Vladimir Putin has said he wants a “lasting and stable peace” in Ukraine but given no indication that he is willing to make any concessions to achieve it, after a week in which Russian missiles and drones again caused death and destruction across Ukraine.
“We need a lasting and stable peace on solid foundations that would satisfy both Russia and Ukraine, and would ensure the security of both countries,” said Putin, speaking to journalists on Friday, a week before a new deadline imposed by Donald Trump for hostilities to cease.
Trump has said if Russia and Ukraine do not come to an agreement to end the war by next Friday, 8 August, he will impose a package of economic sanctions on Russia.
Before he took office, Trump had promised to end the war in 24 hours, but since he became president his repeated overtures to Putin have achieved minimal results. In recent weeks, Trump has markedly changed his rhetoric on the conflict, appearing less conciliatory to Putin and more amenable to enhanced support for Ukraine. He called Russia’s continued attacks on civilian areas “disgusting” on Thursday.

Donald Trump issues threat to Canada over "statehood of Palestine" move

In a post on Truth Social, Trump referred to comments made by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney that Canada was planning to recognize a Palestinian state at the United Nations in September.

Report Shows 'Financial Insecurity Is Widespread and Runs Deep' in Trump Economy
The Century Foundation commissioned a survey last month with polling firm Morning Consult and found that roughly 6 in 10 Americans say that Trump's policies are to blame for their current financial struggles. However, the report also emphasized that Americans' "financial insecurity is widespread and runs deep," and that their concerns stretch back well before Trump's second term.
"More than 4 in 5 Americans (83%) are concerned about the price of groceries, with nearly half (46%) saying they are very concerned," writes the Century Foundation. "Nearly half (47%) of Americans are worried about their current ability to pay their rent or mortgage. And nearly two-thirds (64%) worry about their ability to pay an unexpected medical expense if one should arise. Nearly half of all Americans (48%) believe they would have difficulty paying an unexpected $500 bill without borrowing."
These anxieties were particularly strong among younger Generation Z voters, as well as among Black and Latino voters across all age demographics.

Columbia’s capitulation has turned a university that was once a site of free inquiry and learning into a shadow of its former self, an-anti university, a gated security zone with electronic entry controls, a place of fear and loathing, where faculty and students are told from on high what they can teach and say, under penalty of severe sanctions. Disgracefully, all of this is being done to cover up one of the greatest crimes of this century, the ongoing genocide in Gaza, a crime in which Columbia’s leadership is now fully complicit.
I spent decades at Columbia. I’m withdrawing my fall course due to its deal with Trump | Rashid Khalidi

Don't know when it was taken, though. He's had a lot of similar slides of demonic Mickey Mouse at several different panels over the years. It might have been at a convention in Mexico a few years back?
edit: found it. It was at Festival Pixelatl in Guadalajara three years ago.
