  • Even Netanyahu himself says that the ratio of civilian deaths is over 50%.

    Over 50%! From the horse’s mouth!

    Most experts have it at 80%, but even Netanyahu’s figure is fucking insane. If not a genocide, it’s an absolutely negligent way to run a conflict, with zero value given for human life.

    “BuT HaMaS hIDeS iN TuNnELs”…and Israel has one of the best equipped militaries in the world. How big is their drone fleet? If you can’t figure out how to take out 1 dude without disintegrating an entire city block, then you need to quit.

    So the “best case” scenario is “The Israel government is extremely irresponsible with weapons and needs to stop”. Whether or not you think it qualifies as a “genocide”, it needs to fucking stop, we need to stop supplying them with weapons, and the world needs to apply more pressure. We can Nuremberg it up later, after the children have stopped being brutally and needlessly murdered.









  • And now they have all the big tech players on board! YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and X (of course) are all happy to algorithmically lift far-right content, and let right-wing bots comment on anything to sculpt narratives.

    We are fucked. I’ve tried talking to some of these people, and they live in an alternative reality. Discussing facts is questioning their reality, and it puts them hard on the defensive.

    “The pen is mightier than the sword” and they have all the pens.
