Hamas not responding to attempts to get hostage negotiations back on track
  • At the same time Israel was releasing Palestinian "prisoners" (largely children and largely imprisoned for petty crimes like throwing stones) they were capturing and imprisoning from the West Bank (where there is no Hamas) roughly the same number of people as they were releasing in Gaza.

  • Different social class different rules
  • That doesn't really matter though. The point still stands regardless of if it's explained by money literally disappearing into a hole or huge rounding errors and inefficiencies in their accounting systems.

    They are still allowed much much more leniency with much larger amounts of money (aren't they aren't ever properly held to account for it) than regular people are allowed with comparatively tiny amounts of money.

  • Ignorance or enlightenment?
  • The current charter specifically makes a point of saying that that's not what they want though. Makes a point out of dragging a distinction between Jewish people (they don't have a problem with) and the Zionist project (which they do have a problem with

  • Like the kind of political YouTuber that doesn't actually know what they're talking about.

    That’s pretty accurate. She claims to be left wing, and a fan of Bernie Sanders but she frequently repeats alt-right talking points and conspiracy theories. She does a lot of that thing that a lot of right-wing online personalities do in paying lip service towards being a centrist “I MaKe FuN oF bOtH sIdEs”, but really ending up making the right look far more reasonable than the left the majority of the time. She’s also good friends with the conservative pick-me YouTuber Blaire White.

    She became popular around the time of gamergate largely (imo) because she says a lot of the things those types like — makes a lot of videos ridiculing feminists etc — and is a somewhat conventionally attractive woman. So gamers^TM can convince themselves they don’t hate all women and all women don’t hate them because here’s one who agrees with them and “she [supposedly] isn’t even right wing”.

  • So, what's stopping you from getting a foldable? [Poll]
  • I do like the idea of them, same size phone takes up half the space in a pocket etc. But my current phone (that I've had since 2017) still works mostly fine.

    I do think they've missed a trick by going all in on the foldable plastic display rather than two bezelless screens that folded out to look like one screen. I'm not phone designer but I think it might be more durable to not have the actual screen bending.

  • Why is youtube recommending conservative "talking points" to me?
  • My interest are gaming, standup comedy, memes, react videos, metalurgy, machining, blacksmithing,

    Because a lot of the type of guys who like seeing those stupid conservative videos also like many of the same things as you. Gaming^(TM) is well known to have a problem with the alt-right, react videos have a very similar structure to conservative “libs destroyed with fact and logic” types of videos, and finally a lot of conservatives like to think of themselves as an old fashioned man’s-man so they enjoy things like metalwork and other typical “manly” careers.

  • Far-right figures, including Nazi supporters, anti-gay extremists, and white supremacists, are flocking to Threads
  • Free speech has always had limits.

    It’s mostly about the government not arresting you for what you say. It doesn’t protect you from the consequences of saying hateful things in a public space. Say something racist in an area largely populated by the race you’re talking about and you’re likely to get kicked, post some right wing misinformation in an online space that is largely left-leaning and you’re likely to have your post deleted. Neither of those things infringe on anyone’s right to free speech because other people also have the right to not want to listen to Nazis or racists or TERFS etc.
