Tangentism,

And it’s the knife to the throat threat of “you know just how bad you’ll have it under the other guy…”

Tangentism,

Testimonies coming out now paintt the attack in a different light:

Residents of the kibbutz said that Hamas fighters told them not to be afraid as they were there to fight the IDF, and they state they were not harmed by Hamas.

In fact, they state that the Israeli military fired so much and so indiscriminately that it is very likely the high number of casualties were down to them.

Footage emerging shows Apache helicopters absolutely obliterating everything at the festival and the photos of the damaged vehicles could not have been caused by the weaponry that the Hamad fighters were armed with.

More than half of the original figure of 1600 killed were IDF, with that total being revised down to 1200 with only 1 child under 5.

You’ve been fed bullshit by a military that has a long track record for lying though it’s teeth and bought into them hook line & sinker

Tangentism,

Do you condemn Israel for lying & firing so indiscriminately at the festival crowds that they are very likely responsible for the vast majority of casualties?

Tangentism,

No, you’re just becoming more aware of it

Ex-North Dakota lawmaker charged with traveling for sex with minor, receiving child sex abuse images (apnews.com)

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A retired Republican state senator from North Dakota has been charged with traveling to Europe with the intent of paying for sex with a minor and with receiving images depicting child sexual abuse, according to a federal indictment unsealed Monday....

Tangentism,

British WW1 propaganda was that the Germans eat babies so it’s a regular thing to use

Tangentism,

And the gas and oil reserves underneath it

Tangentism,

It gave me a chuckle that they slotted that into the article!

IMDB even has a listing for “woman who urinates herself” when the bomb drops.

I always remember the last scenes when the main protagonists daughter tries to wake her “RUTH! RUTH!”.

I’ve got it downloaded but haven’t watched it since the 80s as it’s part of my childhood trauma so might take a bit of unpacking!

Tangentism,

It’s the antithesis of all the gung-ho apocalyptic films that has all the alpha males wanking off about they would survive & become a leader.

I watched it when it was broadcast & the conversation at school for weeks after was how no-one of us wanted to survive the blast because of how fucking horrific and what a curse it would be!

Tangentism,

Not been original thought in the guys head.

He stole the idea for Facebook and people think these tech bros are all about innovation!

Tangentism,

To me it seems like Gaza had no intention to get rid of Hamas though at the same time bombing is unnecessary.

There hasn’t been elections for 16 or 17 iirc so how can Palestinians “get rid of” Hamas?

Hamas was supported & funded by Netanyahus likud party specifically because it drove a wedge between those in Gaza and in the West Bank. Classic divide and conquer technique.

As for what Israel can do? They can get rid of the genocidal crook that’s running their government and his two murderous far right henchmen and grasp that he had concocted this situation for several reasons:

To divert attention away from his corruption and fraud indictments

To quell the protests that have been going on for months against him because of the corruption and legislation he has passed to curtail the supreme courts ability to hold the executive to account.

To level Gaza, ethnically cleanse it & genocide the Palestinian people so he can get to the natural gas and oil reserves there.

Yes, there’s a lot Israel can do and it needs to be quick about it.

Tangentism,

You’re talking as though the attacks happened in a vacuum, without intelligence from several sources pre-warning of it and without a certain level of collusion from the Israeli executive to allow it to happen and bring capitalised by then for it’s maximum effect.

When you can genuinely approach the subject not from such a disingenuous perspective then my response may well be perceived by you as a bit more than "If you don’t want to be taken for a cunt then don’t act like one "

Tangentism,

That would be the exact reactionary response I would expect from someone with no grasp of the history, its complexity or even a miniscule amount of knowledge of the atrocities that have been carried out against civilians by both sides

Tangentism,

So you didn’t bother to read my comment then?

If you’re too lazy to do that, why the fuck should I put any effort beyond this in replying?

Tangentism,

Restore Palestine to the 1917 borders. Grant all Palestinians equal rights within those borders. All zionists who were involved in perpetrating war crimes either directly, or indirectly via policy, to face trial at the Hague

Tangentism,

I really don’t care whats tenable for a state born out of terrorism that has been carrying out ethnic cleansing and genocide against the indigenous people for the last 70 plus years.

They have no fucking legitimacy and as much right to continue to exist as the NSDAP government after WW2.

Piracy is Preservation (feddit.de)

Image description: a screenshot from the Wikipedia page for the Doctor Who TV series, with a user-added caption that reads “Preserve the media you can before it’s gone forever.” The Wikipedia article reads, “No 1960s episodes exist on their original videotapes (all surviving prints being film transfers), though some were...

Tangentism,

The BBC stupidly recycled the tapes because they didn’t give much credence at the time to how important their archive would become.

Tangentism,

Shame he wasn’t seen for being like Marion Stokes

Tangentism,

They are digitising Marion Stokes’ collection

Tangentism,

Don’t worry, it’s coming

Tangentism,

No, it needs to be done after Gaza has been ethnically cleansed, the Palestinian people genocided then all those lovely oil & gas reserves can be tapped with the profits pouring into Netanyahus and his co-conspirators bank accounts. Then, and only then should they hold a lip service inquiry into who fucked up!

Tangentism,

And gas…

And they want to build a canal to the gulf of Aqaba and as it’s rock, it can have 2 lanes and take all the traffic from the Suez (which is sand and only 1 lane of traffic)

Tangentism,

You can click that to clear it but you no longer get the threads or replies, just the initial tweet.

Tangentism,

I’ve gone back there from time to time because there’s not the specialised subs here yet, or those that are don’t have the traffic.

What I’ve found on the main dubs I used to frequent is that they are full of reactionary comments that have no grasp of history, context or empathy.

The specialised subs, maybe were like this and I was just more tolerant to it, are full of low effort “please look at me doing absolutely fuck all in any way of producing meaningful content” posts.

There’s far too many to actually get to the content with effort so the signal to noise ratio is too low to fight off my general contempt of the place.

Tangentism,

Has anyone said to use uBlock Origin instead yet?

Also, add in SponsorBlock. It’s an extension that skips embedded adverts within the content but it’s community driven so if it’s not been submitted, it won’t know about it. (Hint: get involved!)

Tangentism,

I was using Reddit Is Fun on mobile and a heavily curated desktop feed and migrated here fully when RiF died.

When I’ve looked at Reddit on desktop, it feels like a shadow of it’s former self in so far as some of the default subs are missing and others just seem filled with the same content reach time I’ve looked.

While the place won’t die overnight, it will become more overrun with bots and karma farmers posting same content over and over.

Tangentism,

If the end goal of either side isnt the redistribution of the countries wealth, increasing health, education and housing programs then they can both get fucked

Tangentism,

In the UK before Ikea, it was MFI (colloquially known as ‘Made For Idiots’) that was even lower quality chipboard horrible furniture.

Yes, Ikea isnt some handcrafted solid wood furniture but until most people can afford that stuff, it will do.

Tangentism,

Or tulips from the 17th century

Tangentism,

Maybe she was mining that weirdness? Perhaps she was hoping to stitch together what appeared as moral disparity in her child?

Tangentism,

The suggestion that he was sent up the mountain with equipment that was inadequate, makes it a bit more than “humans verses environment & lose”

Tangentism,

Another is that no matter how far I zoom in, it still remains on the smallest font.

I’ll be out cycling and it’s a PITA to have to dig out my glasses just to read a pissy small street name to know where tf I am!

If you don't mind me asking what is so important about privacy?

What harm does public data have to you? Couldn’t one just ignore the ads? You can’t see anyone watching you, is public data good for public records? (I’m just curious). I know this sounds weird but is public data good for historical preservation and knowledge increasing the importance of the individual? And does public...

Tangentism,

I would say remove the doors from all your toilets but you yanks are already a bit weird with your bathrooms!

Tangentism,

Advertising shits in your head

Companies fill the space now with their hideous brands, waging the same frenzied battle as the jungle species in order to appropriate the public space and attention with images and words, like animals with their screams and piss’

– Michel Serres

Tangentism,

There’s a funny anecdote from Professor Ian Roberts that he tells at the launch for his book “The Energy Glut”.

He was approached by coca cola to carry out a study for them and they even suggested they would write the proposal for him so they could work together.

He suggested his own proposal that he research the road deaths and injuries attributed to transporting their nutritionally valueless sugary drink around the world.

He didn’t hear back from them!

Tangentism,

He also added that the duffle bag under the sink always has room for one more

Tangentism,

and new-new labor won’t even consider a re-vote.

Especially bizarre after Sir Kid Starver was the one at the front of the “Peoples Vote” campaign to have a referendum on the final deal!

Tangentism,

Defenestration is always preferred!

petition: Defederate any instances that federates with threads proactivly , add threads.net on blocklists everywhere.

I really want to nip threads in the bud. Besides blocking threads.net itself, defederate from any instances that do not. This is blatantly an EEE strategy and a united front is the only way to save what have been accomplished. Here is how Indivudals can do it on mastodont as an example to follow....

Tangentism,

Exactly.

Its not being Chicken Licking and freaking out that the sky is falling but we certainly dont need to play our hand this early in the game.

We know Meta is not a good faith actor. We know they will try to subsume or extinguish the fediverse if they cant control it but we dont need to go pissing our knickers and do the work for them.

Tangentism,

That guys voice is like nails on a chalkboard

Tangentism,

Superheated then liquidised and dispersed like chum

Tangentism,

How is the death of anyone hilarious?
