I think you mean 45? Or is that cuz of his charges or something

But yeah honestly the entire GOP apparatus is currently at the very least complicit if not actively belligerent in the attack on democracy.

oh god please no, one community is plenty XD

If I were to properly manage a second community it would likely be the Hong Kong one that I already have moderator status on here first lol, but I have no intention of being a powermod XD

oh hello, yeah nah one community is enough for me lol. Also I’m honoured but I’m not the heart of the community lol, everyone contributes a good bit.

Both sides have said the same thing and offered peace deals that the other side is unwilling to accept, doesn’t really matter if neither side wants to negotiate. Sucks that the civilians just have to suffer while two assholes fight it out.

Yeah, I assume in general that nothing on the internet ever goes away. At least makes it somewhat more annoying though.

i did the thing that means it’s probably less archived (by editing all the replies before deleting), but i assume some of it probably remains out there. Nothing I can do about that.

One thing i miss about Lemmy is shittymorph tbf

Glad I deleted everything on there. fucking hell.

They’re literally both terrorists, I don’t know what to tell you. But even when killing civilians, there are rules that sometimes allow it according to proportionality rules (which I think Israel has violated). And of course the Israeli government actively wants to and are by the definitions of many committing genocide, which is way worse.

Unless you think that Hamas killing people at a music festival is somehow a valid military target, they’re terrorists. Just like how the IDF are terrorists for attacking Palestinian journalists and innocent family members.

The problem for me is that it’s not the first time that it’s happened. It’s definitely much less of a problem than Israel makes it out to be, but it is at the same time most certainly a problem. At the very least, the amount of people sympathetic to a literal terrorist organisation and attack (as revealed by the UN Watch of the existence of a Telegram group of 3000 UNRWA educators where talk switched between official business and antisemitism etc. https://twitter.com/hillelneuer/status/1746962851955191937) is too high.

Not to say the UN Watch isn’t itself biased (which it is), because of course everything has bias, but there have been quite many legitimate accusations that show that the UN does not have a good track record on this. And the UN does have an anti-Israel slant (though not as strong as the UN Watch’s pro-Israel slant)

I do think that the funding shouldn’t be cut. But again, this still does need to be solved, it’s an actual institutional problem. But I don’t have a solution.

No, terrorists are people who attack civilians as a war crime. Including actions from both the IDF and Hamas. And certain actions from US troops in various wars. But this is not the first account nor instance of UNRWA and its facilities being used in support of or directly for when Hamas does military action, which only endangers Palestinian civilians. If hospitals and schools etc. are indiscriminately used as war facilities, they become valid targets under international law, and thereby makes the civilians there much more at risk.

I mean, the UNRWA needs to stop hiring terrorists. Vetting needs to be done better. At the same time though, Palestinians do need the aid, desperately. It’s a mess of a situation.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO :(

He’s a Russian, can’t have reasonably expected this lol

Time for a genocide. And no one’s going to stop them. Fucking hell.

Some of my friends have suggested that there might not be a Gaza to fight for independence for in a few years. I didn’t believe them, but now it definitely looks more possible…

daily mail is shit so grain of salt but that sounds incredibly stupid if true

That being said, would not surprise in the slightest if he’s a spy; just curious about the timing… there’s definitely spies from every country that has any in China, the US etc.

Projection… :)

Yeah for sure, this is after all a record storm. That’s the main cause probably.
