It’s illegal to support a terrorist organisation, not to support Palestine/Lebanon etc. those are two different things, cheers.

Yes, they’re two different things. I brought it up because there are plenty of people there too who are openly in defense of Hamas and Hezbollah, even handing out pamphlets in support of them. The only real legal suppression I’m aware of is over people flying Hezbollah flags in the past month (the symbolism you mention).

The law is tricky but basically either pushing for terrorist acts, or displaying designated terrorist symbolism, or provide support to a terrorist organisation.

Which are not particularly relevant to the situation of aussie.zone federating with lemmy.ml. Them writing posts which side with Hamas or Hezbollah isn’t violating those laws.
