Jordan Lund is NOT a good human being.

Right, the Gaza Genocide isn’t US Politics… Those aren’t US made bombs being dropped with US politicians cheering them on and US diplomatic support and denial allowing the Genocide to continue. Nothing could be more salient to US politics than the ways in which the Palestinian Genocide drove us to war.

What a joke.

I feel that this situation unfortunately requires escalation and I will be directly contacting Lemmy World mods, I will update with their response.

For the record the first article about corporate complicity in the Palestinian Genocide includes references to many major US corporations, thus making it drirectly relevant to US politics at an immediate level.

The second article about US media’s complicity in coverage over the Palestinian Genocide… do I need to actually explain how that is related to US politics? Of course it is?

The third article is relevant because the US and Israel have been intimately interwoven in their escalation of Genocide and breaking of international norms, if a Genocide begins in Lebanon it will be a DIRECT continuation of US politics applied first in Israel and next in Lebanon. I mean what the hell we are fighting a war RIGHT NOW and this is the biggest escalation possible IN THAT WAR. How is that NOT related to US politics???

The fourth article about there being no ceasefire in Gaza, I don’t even know how to go about this one, om, it is politics involving primarily the US here? The US is the single most relevant political actor capable of changing this situation? How is this not US politics? Where can you cleanly draw a line here?

The US is directly and intimately complicit in the Palestinian Genocide, you cannot in good conscience nor with logical consistency separate US politics cleanly from this issue, if you wanted that to be possible you should have spoken up louder against the Genocide before, now it is too late to fumble with broken stilted arguments like this. The Palestinian Genocide is US Politics, period, end of story.

Can we finally stop pretending that what we have been witnessing in Gaza over the past 22 months is a “war,” a “conflict,” or even a “humanitarian crisis”? Many of the world’s leading human rights and humanitarian groups – including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Doctors Without Borders – agreed months ago that what is being livestreamed to our phones on a daily basis is indeed a genocide.

…

Trump’s Republican allies in the House and Senate are even more gung-ho. Forget complicity; Congress is filled with GOP cheerleaders for genocide, from Senators Tom “bounce the rubble in Gaza” Cotton to Lindsey “level the place” Graham. The newest member of the House, Randy Fine, a Republican representative of Florida, has called for the nuking of Gaza and said just days ago that Palestinians in Gaza should “starve away” until the Israeli hostages are all released. (A reminder that incitement to genocide is also a crime under Article III of the Genocide convention.)

But we cannot let Democrats off the hook either. The first 16 months of this mass slaughter unfolded on a Democratic president’s watch. From the get-go, Joe Biden gave Netanyahu and his cabinet of génocidaires everything they needed – 2,000-lb bombs to drop on refugee camps filled with Palestinian children? Check. UN security council vetoes to prevent the passage of resolutions calling for a permanent ceasefire? Check. The burial of internal US government reports warning of war crimes and famine in Gaza? Check.

It wasn’t just Biden. The vast majority of Democrats in Congress spent much of 2024 casting vote after vote to keep arming, funding and whitewashing the mass killing of Palestinian civilians. Even now, in the summer of 2025, seven high-profile Democratic senators were happy to take a smiling photo with Netanyahu, including the Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer, who claims talk of genocide is antisemitic and says his job “is to keep the left pro-Israel”.

    Jordan Lund is a zionist propogandist who casually abuses people on the site with his mod authority for his own political bias. Unless he’s literally hosting lemmy.world himself, someone has some explaining to do around why that absolute shitbag of a human being is a mod on so many threads. He needs to be removed and banned.

              You mean the social credit score that makes it so if liberals disagree with you that you’re shadow banned?

              Or the obfuscation of what’s allowed because it scans all images uploaded?

              Or any of the horrid things Rimu does because he’s never blamed for the poor chickens and horribly written code?

              If someone has a PieFed.world or .social I just know they hate brown people and communists more than they hate fascists.

        I can’t imagine being in the anarchist comms and being upset that world admins won’t do something about a community you can just not participate in. The whole point is making your own with blackjack and hookers. If everyone is so pissed about Jordan Lund then just make your own fucking comm so I don’t have to see another ptb post about the same shit.

      Never forget: White Progressive [sic] Discovers Portland’s Unwanted Reputation

      Jordan Lund describes himself as “the whitest guy you’re going to know.”

      “Politically I am incredibly liberal. My biggest problem voting for Hillary Clinton is that she’s entirely too conservative.”

      Race isn’t something Lund thinks about often. He knows Oregon has a troubled history — that for generations, people of color weren’t even allowed to own land here. But from his vantage point — he works in tech in downtown Portland — that’s the stuff of history lessons.

      “The thing I learned growing up as a kid was certain cities in Oregon had the sign at the border saying, ‘Don’t let the sun set on you in our town.’ Grants Pass used to do that. I don’t believe they still do. That was always prominent, but it was always portrayed as the old school rules that don’t apply anymore, like ‘women can’t wear pants.’ It was wacky laws from before I was born, never really thought it would still apply,” he said.

      Except, those laws continue to resonate, generations later. They impact the way Oregon looks – Portland is one of the whitest cities in the country, and Oregon is one of the whitest states. And they impact the way the rest of the country sees this place Lund loves so.

      As a progressive – as a guy who would rather pick U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders or California Gov. Jerry Brown for president – that lack of diversity bothers him. Still, Lund said he doesn’t see much racism in his day-to-day life. He’s certainly never experienced it.

      “Against me? No. The differentiator I experience is because I’m male. I’ve had a lot of anti-male sentiment. I lost a job because of it. Because somebody didn’t like having talking to a guy. Such is life.”

      Lund doesn’t like the rhetoric of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. He recognizes that his own industry has a diversity problem when it comes to both people of color and women. And he worries about his adopted hometown — but for reasons other than racial tensions.

      “I think Portland had a variety of problems. Race is definitely one of them, yes. But I don’t know that we could classify it as the most important problem. if you look at the homeless situation, there’s definitely an income inequality problem, a mental health problem. there are a whole lot of more pressing problems besides race.”

      And despite his politics, he struggles to find sympathy or kinship with the Black Lives Matter marchers who occasionally disrupt his commute home to protest police violence.

      “I do pay attention to them. I think primarily as somebody who works in downtown we tend to be aware of things like that more because of the disruption it causes. I don’t think the disruption they do is particularly productive. It takes people who would ordinarily be on their side and go, why are they doing this to us? The Portland Police didn’t shoot anybody recently that I’m aware of. If they want to be productive in their protests, they should go to where these events are happening.”

        Never forget that this dude is a Ruski pretending to be a red-blooded American while simping for Putin.

        I have screens somewhere of Davel going “reality tends to have a strong Russian-propaganda bias” etc bullshit.

            “Wyaah I don’t have any critical faculties nor can I search for things for myself”

            Yeah I’m more inclined to believe you’re just another Ruski, and no amount of evidence would make you, not even reconsider but consider at all.

            Because you’re definitely gonna buy it after I show you the screenshots?

            Another Russian then. Which every Russian denies, ofc. The other day there were “what languages do you speak thread” and I went through the entire thread and found one polyglot who admitted to knowing Russian. Not a single person “Russian and English” for example. Even though Lemmy is fucking full of them/you.

            https://programming.dev/post/42228384/20995490

            Take a look at that post. There’s a bunch. If you’re questioning whether Davel is a Ruski after actually reading those and seeing the screens, then you’re obviously pretending not to see that everything he posts is inline with Russian propaganda and not mildly so.

            Bro has banned me from every community he is a mod in, and for the longest time was literally too afraid to post anywhere he wasn’t a mod at, because of me. (How pathetic do you have to be to do something like that fucking roflmao)

            https://lemmy.world/post/21534857/13227216

            That’s the post where these are

            It’s very well known that Davel, Yogthos etc are Russians or Russian shills. If you can’t see it while actually taking a look then you’re either pretending not to, or have severe cognitive issues and should prolly get checked out by a professional.

              I am well aware of that, this is very obviously a pattern of thought for you.

              Looking at the posts you have linked, no I don’t see any overwhelming evidence of anything here. Didn’t you say it was easy to find?

                “Show me the screenshots! (They’re so old he must not have them anymore.)”

                “Okay, but you’re just gonna pretend they don’t matter at all, despite Davel literally saying ‘reality has a well known Russian-propaganda bias’, you’re just gonna ignore them completely.”

                posts screenshots and much more than asked for

                “There are zero Russians on Lemmy and I see nothing here.”

                You literally asked for the screenshots. Now you’re panicking that I had them and have to resort to the old “nuh-uh, Russian propaganda doesn’t even exist actually!”

                Jesus fuck I don’t know how you manage to be so good at chess as a nation when literally every single one of you is dumber than the average American. Unless you’re actually the same ridiculous coward I’ve been arguing against on many occasions. Hahahaha)

                (Thanks for that though, on the list you go. Which one? The ones which you’re kind enough to help me with.:)

                  Put me on your list of people you have cut yourself out from interacting with because you erroneously confused them pointing out correctly that you are full of shit with them being Russian shills.

                  “There are zero Russians on Lemmy and I see nothing here.”

                  Did I ever say there were zero russians here? You are clearly exaggerating my arguments in attempt to gotcha me, but I never said there weren’t russians on the fediverse with ulterior motives.

                  If you checked my post history you blabbering idiot you would see I am very pro-Ukrainian so… your lazy attempt to narrativize my actions according to your babylike understanding of the world falls apart immediately here.
