I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed

edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual

          “NAFO” stands for North Atlantic Fella Organization. It’s an internet meme movement that started on twitter (now X, the everything app) during the beginning of the war in Ukraine.

          They tend to call themselves “Fella”, use Shiba Inu dog avatars, memes, and shitposts to mock pro-Russian narratives online. Extremely online, I would point to things like noncredibledefense on reddit/lemmy.

          They tend to frame dissenters as “useful idiots”, “Putin apologists”, or “tankies”.

          Performative about opposing Russia while the extent of their activism is generally being terminally online.
