Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
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.
That's all the rules!

Wtf is a labor union doing commenting on Gaza? Dont split your base on shit that isnt related to your cause. Thats how occupy wallstreet failed.
Every decent person wants Israeli to stop murdering children so there is that.
Why does lemmy act like only the IDF does anything?
Why do you act like murdering children was acceptable?
Why do you act like only the IDF murders children?
How so? Because I don't mention Putin in comments on Palestine?
So, why are you behaving like murdering children was acceptable?
Only the IDF is murdering children right now.
Also 36 vs 15.000+ children is quite a difference.
Thats bullshit and you know it
What's bullshit?
If you support genocide, then you don't deserve the protection anyway. Nobody is calling for Israeli genocide, they're calling for the end of another Holocaust.
Wtf are you talking? If you support Hamas, youre supporting a holocaust.
Being empathetic of palastinians is not supporting hamas. The call is for a ceasefire, as in to stop the bloodshed wholesale. No reasonable person right now is or could be advocating to let hamas retaliate
It's in Fain's letter in the article. It appears the UAW is based.
Everyone can, should, and must oppose genocide. It is not and cannot ever be acceptable for one nation to slaughter another. It's not an excuse for any groups within Palestine, or who claim to act on behalf of the Palestinian people, it's a call for an end to violence, for the sake of all humanity.
Since everyone has pointed out the other things wrong with your comment, Occupy Wall Street’s failure strangely coincided with the when the cops were sent to throw everybody out of the camps 🤔🤔
