Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Apart from the Ben Shapiro Aquaman joke, I'm actually pretty distraught about this. A rogue nation state has committed war crime by collective punishment, cutting electricity, water, food, and critical humanitarian aid. Then they announced that they gonna kill thousands of innocent civilians in 24 hours super-villain twirling moustache style. Everyone knows people in Gaza cannot escape.
The world have like 20 hours to act to prevent an indiscriminate slaughter of civilians in blatant disregards of international law, yet noone does anything while a lot of supposed good guys democracies cheers and light up their landmarks with the flag of the completely rogue nation state.
Fuck everything
I don't know if it's European guilt, or just bloodlust for brown people that let them allow this. Probably both. The times I have heared "they can defend themselves with any measure necessary" with the justification that the Holocaust happened, is mind boggling, and they don't seem to detect any grain of irony in their statement.
It is both, with some religious fundamentalism thrown in too, remember many evangelicals in the US think Israel will help bring the second coming.
it's not true that the good democracies are doing nothing. not at all.
they're busy banning every form of protest against this.
