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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

at this point anybody repeating the 60k number is a genocide denier

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 28 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Seriously, they've been stuck on that number since like early 2024, as though Palestinians haven't been getting killed daily

Fuck outta here

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago

No, don't you see, Israel has just flattened every hospital, utility, and shelter without killing anyone

[–] Sasuke@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

it's especially revolting to see it repeated by the same media ghouls who used to attach "according to Hamas-led Gaza Health Ministry" as a way to sow doubt about the number

We still pretending its only 60k huh

[–] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 24 points 1 week ago (1 children)

More like 470,000, with another 10,000+ guaranteed due to untreatable malnutrition

i saw this video of that “Breaking Points” show where they had a democratic senator from michigan on and were grilling her about whether or not there’s a genocide in gaza.

her response was some bullshit about how “we arent seeing the mass bombings anymore that we were seeing a year ago”, and to the extent that thats true, its literally only because there’s nothing left to bomb. all of gaza has been reduced to ruins and those ruins have been bombed 5 times over

the way these “people” try to get away with this shit, which is an extension of the fake 60k death toll, is so transparent and insulting. but its meant to be isnt it? they know nobody is gonna stop them. the only reason they dont fully come out and say they want all the browns in palestine killed is because they get off on doing this “lol yeah im sympathetic its terrible lol” shit

Great interview. They didn't let Slotkin get away with any bullshit

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

My favorite moment was when she tried to go "It's funny how all these protests happened under a democratic president" and she just got immediately smacked down with a deadpan "there was a protest in Manhattan yesterday"

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago

yeah, i quit watching them a while back when i learned the dude is some sort of weirdo right wing nationalist type. but it was a good interview. i wish they could get people like bernie and aoc on to give them the same treatment

Whats interesting is if you do a age breakdown its mostly older people who still support Israel. Once they're gone, the percentage will be even worse for israel.

[–] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The zoomers being right wing will be good for one thing at least.

[–] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

The vast majority of Israel support comes from the right. Republicans are something like 80% pro-Israel and have not moved at all from the last few years of genocide. Democrats are down at like 30% now

The rightwing zoomers brains will rot and they will be subjected to enough psyops to make them believe whatever they need to believe. They have the same brain defect as their boomer cohorts that makes them susceptible to being molded by US propaganda.

So my comment was a bit sarcastic but I think that right wingers are becoming so racist [anti-Semitic] they will despise all things Jewish, which to them will include Israel. I think Fuentes is one example of this. Of course there is a good chance what you said will happen. Honestly its probably the more likely result. Luckily Israel itself is an unsustainable genocide colony and will fall apart. Which at this point is all I want. I just hope that Palestinians are around for that day.
