Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

...

Médecins Sans Frontières said it had “consistently been denied the import of power generators, water purifiers, solar panels and other medical equipment”. And a UK aid shipment containing 2,500 solar lanterns and 1,350 water filters was rejected.

So many people go through really weird contortions to avoid saying anything about Israel's involvement in any of this human suffering
