To be clear this is unlikely to be a long term nation wide internet blackout. Rather, e.g., turn off the Internet in a section of a city and send in troops to deal with a protest.

They'll boil the frog slowly enough. Threads is huge compared to the fediverse, and will likely do piecemeal federation. Like sending account activity out but not sharing any fediverse voices, getting everyone here following and desensitized

I'm not super familiar with the right terminology, but in short I think users should be able to follow whoever they want, but restrictions on how it is interacted with is fair game. I think following and replying to threads accounts is sort of a must, even if boosting and other functions are disabled. Also on favor of preventing non-replies from being sent to threads.

The real issue issue is interop with Threads means surveillance of users. Limiting the info going from here to there is essential. However a read-only mode that lets us get some value out of it is fine

Just say it. Just call them savages you want exterminated.
You don't care about death or suffering, you care about how "impure and backwards they are". To be cleaned for "progress"

You're building up to it, just speak plainly. You want to improve the land of Palestine by clearing out the savages. It's the genocidal colonial logic you subscribe to. Let people know who you are.

Unverified fear-bait.

There's no shortage on stories of cases where Israeli soldiers rape Palestinians --of any gender. In terms of murder, we know which side has the higher body count, so let's not pretend we don't.

Y'all are conveniently ignoring the fact that this an outdated charter and can't find such language in the new one. Just another day clocking in to the genocide defence factory, don't forget the emojis.

I like the idea of having a few OP abilities, but having them require non-trivial preparation within an encounter. E.g. "charging" for several turns without moving or taking damage.

Sounds like a useful loophole for gun reform and getting around the 2nd amendment.

Thousands of Palestinians held without trial for years.

Tens of thousands dead Palestinians, most of which children.

Many more displaced, being pushed out of Gaza to be refugees.

For months, they have been denied food, water, electricity, and Internet.

Meanwhile,

Israel uses AI to find 100s if targets daily, using drones and aircrafts. No boots on the ground. Billions in international aid. The people living life largely uninterrupted. Settlers getting more and more "free" land.

Can you piece together why the focus is on Israel?

Horseshit, don't equate this with collateral damage. The difference is nations generally minimize civilian death, not make it the sole purpose of the offense. It wouldn't be a war crime otherwise.

A study covered by Ha'aretz: the civilian deaths account for 61% of deaths from air strikes in Gaza.

This makes the Gaza slaughter more fatal to civilians than any other conflict in the entire 20th Century. The century that included many genocides and both world wars.

*America writes to its private weapons industry

It's why all the dystopian cop toys like killer drones are R&Ded in Israel, using Palestinians as unwilling test subjects.

Yeah, bombing people is notoriously good at deterring further political violence (/s obviously).

What do you call collective punishment again? A War Cream? No that's not right ...
