My friend, I will give you the benefit of doubt and believe you when you say that this post’s purpose was to make fun of how shitty Twitter’s community notes are, and that is indeed an important topic to shed light on, so people won’t treat community notes as reliable.
However,
You can rest assured that a significant portion of the people who saw this post believed it as straight fact.
It is impossible to overstate how gullible people on the internet are, and how readily they will straight up believe conspiratorial BS, especially surrounding controversial topics like Israel.
That’s how Poe’s law works, and it is attitudes like yours that don’t take this shit seriously that end up inadvertently contributing to an environment full of libelous antisemitic conspiracies on the internet.
I beseech you to carefully consider this stuff if you ever plan to post such a thing again.
Was that a thing that actually happened?
Which Israeli speakers do you think should have been barred from speaking in Germany if they were even handed in censorship?
“A speaker was projected who was subject to a ban on political activity,” Berlin police said on social media. “There is a risk of a speaker being put on screen who in the past made antisemitic and violence-glorifying remarks. The gathering was ended and banned on Saturday and Sunday.”
The UK’s Jewish Chronicle reported last year that Abu Sitta spoke at a Beirut ceremony on the anniversary of the death of a founder of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), Maher Al-Yamani.
The report said Abu Sitta wept as he “hailed the late terror group founder for his success at striking fear into the hearts of Israelis.”
Terrorists from the PFLP participated in the devastating October 7 attack.
On October 8, Abu Sitta promoted a social media post which said Gazans should “fight back and die in dignity” as they were “going to die anyway,” the UK’s Jewish News reported.
Kagi is a payed search engine service that has worked well for me so far
Linguaphobia! That’s a new one
All the people critisizing “”“Genocide Joe”“” give me a aneurysm when cosidering their alternative:
Attacking Biden, Ben Gvir says Trump would have been more supportive of Israel
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir harshly criticized the Biden administration’s handling of the war in Gaza, accusing it of benefitting Hamas and arguing that Israel would have been better off dealing with a second Trump administration.
“Instead of giving us his full backing, [President Joe] Biden is busy with giving humanitarian aid and fuel, which goes to Hamas,” Ben Gvir declared in an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Sunday. “If Trump was in power, the U.S. conduct would be completely different.”
The evidence provided by Israel alleging that roughly a dozen UNRWA staffers participated in Hamas’s October 7 terror onslaught is “highly credible,” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday, as media outlets published additional details on the implicated employees, including photos from an Israeli dossier. “We haven’t had the ability to investigate [the allegations] ourselves. But they are highly, highly credible,” Blinken said during a press conference
they truly are 😔
I like the Arabic word “ya” that can functions as an extra attention-grabber when referring to someone
So instead of
NaoPb, can you bring me the screwdriver? you say ya NaoPb, can you bring me the screwdriver?
so the word “ya” prepares your brain to recieve a name of a referrant, and if that name is your name then your brain then pays full athention
I asked chatGPT what Wayland is since the article contains no explanation
In this context, “Wayland” refers to a protocol and a display server protocol used in Linux operating systems. It’s an alternative to the more established X Window System (X11). The article highlights that Firefox version 121.0 has integrated support for Wayland by default, indicating that the browser can now utilize Wayland’s capabilities directly on modern Linux desktops without relying on XWayland compatibility layer, thereby enhancing performance and compatibility with the native display server protocol.
Since this happened “live on CNN” I expected to find an article/video about this on CNN, but googling “jake johnson cnn” only finds the CommonDreams.org link
anyone got a CNN source?
You can credibldy argue that Israel has an outsized influence of US foreign policy, but to call the US an “Israeli puppet state” is such a hyperbolic exaggeration that it sounds less like a valid criticism and more like the old “Jews control the world” antisemitic hate speech.
The US has far more influence on Israel than vice versa
I’m curious whether Android will be one of the platforms
The trailer for the series is full of comments criticizing Peacock (the publisher) for releasing this documentary and saying they’ll delete their Peacock accounts.
I’ve never heard of them before and I might open an account specifically to watch this! It looks genuinely good from the trailer
