For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Do you have any sources on the 10 to 100 thousand lives " disrupted who didn't need to be "

No, it was a vague guess, a kind of "reaching across the aisle" that I shouldn't have done. I didn't have any way to directly back up my claim. I didn't investigate, yet I spoke obama-sad.

This youtube video is where the idea came from, but I was extrapolating out a single person's experience and treating it as if it was representative of an entire group. I really shouldn't be doing that, especially with USAID funding being cut.

Ah okay, yeah it is easy to assume it has happened to some degree so I was wondering if you had some data I haven't seen.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
