Hamas, federation and legality - eviltoast

So, I’ve noticed a few posts making it to “all” from some some communities that are, shall we say, unsympathetic to the Israelis readarding the attacks over the weekend.

I don’t want to get into a row about the situation itself as you can have one of them anywhere online right now.

However, some of it slips into being supportive and almost enthusiastic about Hamas actions.

In quite a few countries, Hamas are a legally proscribed terrorist organisation, and support of them is specifically illegal. Therefore I’m wondering if there is any risk hosting federated content from these instances if you happen to live in said country and host a Lemmy instance. Lemm.ee for example being based in the EU where they are deemed as terrorists.

      Land is what’s at stake, when people are removed from their land or displaced, that constitutes genocide, keeping them under a seperate set of law while favouring Jews: apartheid (literally worse than South Africa, because the whites actually needed low wage workers while Israelis just carry on killing).

      All of that comes under settler-colonialism, but certainly nationalism is part of the agenda.
