(We’re trying to warn y’all about banking discrimination and the dangers of facial recognition technology too but that’s a subject for another post. Just know that they always test their hateful tech tools on us first, then roll them out for the respectables and normals.)

I look forward to that post!

What is Israel retaliating for by striking Iran?

A reddit thread supposedly debunking the IDF's Oct 7 "mass Hannibal" friendly fire response is now a top google result if you search "oct 7 mass hannibal".

old. reddit. com/r/IsraelPalestine/ comments/1fcmh39/ there_was_no_mass_hannibal_on_october_7th/

claims include:

  • (in comments) that Israeli air force colonel Nof Erez, who described Oct 7 as a "mass hannibal," was fired in July 2023 and did not take part in fighting on Oct 7
    • So far I haven't found any evidence for this but I haven't scoured the internet
  • that most Israeli deaths occurred deeper in Israeli territory, while most Hannibal deaths are implied to have been on the border
    • They have a map of the supposed locations of deaths. The github does not give a paper trail for the data, as far as I can tell
    • I'm also not convinced that the "mass Hannibal" account emphatically puts deaths elsewhere

there are other claims but I'll post this edit now, I'm still reading

Is there any evidence that the pagers mostly belonged to Hezbollah?

There is only one reason you would target a fucking hospital

I don't think it was just for economic reasons that capitalists and feds astroturfed the antimask/antivax/return-to-normal movement so hard. I think they correctly recognized covid as a potential insurrectionary flashpoint.

Special fuck-you to state rep Jeffrey Sanchez

Massachusetts state Representative Jeffrey Sanchez, whose nephew, Brandon, has been detained at the JRC since 1992, is a major proponent of the JRC and their practices. Sanchez has repeatedly blocked the passage of legislation that would threaten the center.

Too bad it’s fucking Viktor Orban lol. Without careful wording, the takeaway will just be “wow hexbears agree with Viktor Orban,” never mind what Orban is actually saying in this instance.

when a majority white community mocks a chinese man by comparing his appearance to a yellow bear, it's a little weird

At least quarantine that shit to the dunk tank.

I'm not on hexbear to spend all my time thinking about libs lol, I'm on hexbear because I like hexbear. I like the riffs, and the topics, and the cool knowledgeable users who post stuff I would never see otherwise. I've learned a ton here over the years, and it really feels like a wholly unique space on the internet.

i'll add another link to the pile lol

Guessing game: Russia's moon mission crashed. Whose fault is it?

some of the commenters act like Russia is still communist, it's weird.

TLDR connecting far-flung regions into one huge grid can mitigate the intermittency of renewables. High-voltage direct current is a good way to do this.

You can join any lemmy and still interact with the others. Lemmy.ml does not require an email but you have to answer a questionnaire and wait to get approved. I got approved after a few minutes. The site is pretty overloaded now and some people are running into problems making accounts. lemmy.world requires an email, but you can use a temporary email and there's no questionnaire. Here's a list of federated lemmy sites https://the-federation.info/platform/73. Be wary of beehaw.org, they have some sketchy lib mods who have already blocked hexbear as a hatespeech site, which is unfounded to the point of absurdity. I would steer clear of associating your account with them, although it probably doesn't matter.

so, iirc, during account creation lemmy.ml has you answer three questions, which I think were:

  • why do you want to join lemmy?
  • what communities do you want to join?
  • why did you choose this username?

my responses (which you can probably get away with paraphrasing) were something like:

  • "i like the idea of a social network with no owners or venture capital calling the shots and shaping discourse"
  • (i just glanced at the community list and named a few I liked, including /c/socialism, /c/china, and like /c/music)
  • "[username] is already my username on another leftist forum that will probably federate with lemmy in the future"

make sure to read sources before sharing them.

DO NOT COPY-PASTE THIS ON LEMMY LOL, THIS IS A BRAINSTORM FOR OUR USE

We should pool our sources and evidence in this thread so that people with approved lemmy accounts can start spreading it there.

Feel free to contribute lol, it's a lot of work for me to do on my own and I might miss stuff or make mistakes, although I'm gonna keep going help or no

I'll grab links in a second (and there are some good articles I'd like to find that gather lots of evidence in one place), but here's some stuff off the top of my head:

I don't really have much off the top of my head for Uighur genocide stuff

I'll stick articles down here, some of which aggregate lots of evidence in one place

/u/Awoo suggests keeping things short and digestible instead of posting long effortposts, since libs will just count on people not reading the whole thing and they will point at it and say "See? They deny the Uighur genocide" or "See, they deny Tiananmen" https://hexbear.net/post/271448/comment/3514089
