What part don’t you understand? I was pretty clear and concise.

If you have trouble understanding, maybe you should brush up on your reading comprehension.

Or are you just a tribalist who doesn’t like when people acknowledge it? I know what I’d put my money on, lol.

It’s cute when someone learns a very small part of a very complicated subject and then thinks they actually understand it.

Do Israel Palestine next, or India china

What’s India China? (Other than what I consider minor territory disputes at the border.)

India and China have a long standing but currently somewhat muted territorial thing.

It’s not full blown war, but only because they agreed not to use firearms so they just hit each other with sticks.

Edit: Israel to India

So do Israel Palestine, or Azerbaijan and Armenia, Guyana and Venezuela, India and Pakistan.

Come on man, these are all subjects you can “look into” and then pretend you understand them while lording it over people and telling them that they should brush up on their reading comprehension.

Get on that train!

You just totally get how to engage with other people don’t you… insult their intelligence, and surely they’ll come around to your viewpoint. Works everytime.

It reeks of “I never knew a thing about this until recently and now I have been reading tons of opinion forums and blog posts about it so I’m basically an expert now. Also I have a few new words in my vocabulary I need to whip out to show how smart I am.”

There are so many details which are being thrown out here in order for you to lump those two quotes and events together like that and call them the same. I’m no genius at reading comprehension and even I can see that! I think you need to spend an additional 5 minutes reading about the two wars, and then some.

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • 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.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
