I mean, to the standards required for a court of law (e.g. forensic proof that these were patients) but I take your point.

Objectively, Spez. [I changed my mind, see edit]

Subjectively, in my personal experience the worst mod I ever encountered was ~~Ghislaine Maxwell~~ Maxwellhill.

There are whole articles out there about how bad their moderation was.

They somehow had enough people convinced that their sockpuppet "Anutensil" was a separate user that it joined the same mod teams and constantly advocated for them. Which is crazy because a utensil literally means a tool (that they were using to consolidate power).

Edit: actually objectively it's probably someone like CarlH who was the mod of carlhprogramming but also irl turned out to be this pedo guy who kept his own young son in a basement and tortured and abused him.

I hope this is being documented somehow.

Even if it takes 40 years for the perpetrators of these war crimes to be brought to justice, as in some other cases, it still should happen.

It's not a weird conspiracy though. It's just that dragging the US into protecting Israel from Iran has the effect of halting US criticism of the Gaza genocide.

Totally with you on the important part, which is everyone needs to de-google now.

I didn't downvote you personally (I only downvote spam), I was just pointing out the flaw in your logic, in passing.

Fantastic article.

Yeah, they do. Some more than others.

The idea that all war happens outside of international law and is always breaking the Geneva conventions is false.

It's something war criminals and their appeasers pretend, to excuse their own actions. Kind of like those rapists who say all of us would rape people if we could get away with it. No, no we wouldn't.

Probably.

I know it's realpolitik but it's still mind-blowing to me that this guy is in the middle of fighting against an aggressive occupation of Ukrainian land with elements of ethnic cleansing, and simultaneously takes every opportunity to align himself with Israel, an occupying force.

As @[email protected] says, it's creating real dissonance outside of the West.

And the amount of resources going into genociding people, the high tech drones, the 2,000lb bombs, the surveillance and AI - it's horrific.

Another man is seen carrying a 5-year-old girl named Sally Abu Laila, who is bleeding from her head and surrounded by people trying to help.

Her mother Sabreen told CNN her daughter was in her arms when Israeli soldiers shot at her. They had attempted to cross into the north with Sabreen’s husband, but the soldiers turned him back, leaving her and her four children to face the journey alone.

If what you're saying is true, I would expect the opposite outcome

I don't see why you would expect upvotes for snidely implying the worst about people in here though.

I've almost de-googled and came here when I saw the crosspost was in this community especially because I was hoping for discussion on degoogling.
