Go educate yourself on how Israel came into being in the first place.

It wasn't through peacefully asking Palestinians to share the land but by three groups, who gleefully wore the title of "terrorists" that bombed & killed their way into terrifying the populace.

It wasn't the Palestinians that planted a bomb in the King David Hotel that killed 96 in 1947. It wasn't Palestinians that carried out atrocities such as throwing babies into ovens in Deir Yassin and Tantura.

Israel was born out of collaboration with colonisers & imperialists, through selling out other Jews who opposed zionism, through a thousand acts of indiscriminate terrorism against the indigenous population and through an apartheid system since.

Bbbbbut what about October 7th?!!!

It's history equivalence is the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising but Israel ain't the oppressed fighting back.

In the UK, if I opened a page that had CSAM on it but closed it as soon as I realised without opening the images, the fact that my browser has cached that page (with thumbnails) means I'm in possession & could be prosecuted.

Gandhi was asked "Mr. Gandhi what do you think of Western civilization?"

"I think it would a wonderful idea"

The UK have literally done fuck all though & this threat of sanctions is lip service to public opinion (+400,000 marched through London last weekend but you'd never know from British media!).

David Lammy, the foreign secretary said that he had suspended 29 of the 300+ arms contracts to ensure they wouldn't be used against civilians in Gaza.

He didn't specify our give any details about those contacts, just a vague bit of handwaving.

Now we know that the UK has flown+600 surveillance flights over Gaza since October 7th (from the still colonised Cyprus) & have passed that intel to the Israelis.

The state never does anything willingly & when it dies stood like this, it's purely performative.

The lie about throwing children into ovens comes directly from what zionists terrorists carried out in Deir Yassin in 1948

we're gonna end up with /r/sinkpissers. Lol

In all seriousness, you really don't want a mass exodus from Reddit to Lemmy instances. It's better that it's slowly so growth is managed but even more important, user quality is maintained!

When the Digg exodus happened, Reddit literally overnight went from a considered discussion board to full of ascii art, 1 line shit witty or pun comments, lyric threads and the signal to noise ratio went to shit.

On top of that there were constant stability issues that were compounded by all the thickos constantly hammering F5.

How did you have any for her in the first place? She showed on that reality show that shes a deranged nutter.

Shes the daughter of one of the biggest rock managers and her own company had a roster of significant artists so shes definitely independently wealthy.

Shes from a privileged background (despite her dad being abusive and her mum trying to kill her a few times) and thinks that entitles her to tell other people how to behave. Maybe she should have focused on her own kids a bit more seeing how problematic they were.

Kneecaps response was succinct and to the point:

In an email to Rolling Stone, band member Mo Chara wrote, "Her rant has so many holes in it that it hardly warrants a reply but she should listen to ‘War Pigs’ that was written by Black Sabbath."

It's typical of the neolib Labour party.

They've recently reintroduced legislation for digital IDs, just as they did the previous time they were in govt (prior to 2010).

We also have police stepping up unregulated use of facial reignition camera on the streets

They are obsessed with authoritarianism.
