@defcon201 not all “hackers” are trans though? The heck?

Is there a source of discourse on the internet that is not entirely hyperbolic anymore? No matter the issue the loudest voices are the ones trumping up the content and sensationalizing the news. You don’t get to use the word genocide for dramatic effect. When you call for justice that way you undermine the process. #gaza #isreal

@micchiato wow those were some major leaps for someone with this quote in their bio: “But the hushing of the criticism of honest opponents is a dangerous thing.” — W.E.B. Du Bois

I like to think of open social networks as an area for discourse. I clearly misjudged your eagerness to debate.

@micchiato well we can’t really debate this if you’re going to strawman. What is the solution in your mind?
@micchiato while I understand that point of view, what’s the alternative when Hamas is continuing to utilize hospitals and ambulances as shields and command centers? I don’t know the answer but it seems like Hamas is really to blame here. I doubt war strategists would suggest letting the enemy get away because they’re using their own nation’s civilians as fodder. What else can Israel do but proceed as tactically as possible and hope non-adversaries recognize they’re being weaponized and leave?

Is it true there is a Byzantine Empire era Saint buried where this airstrike hit? #gaza

@madhersh if I recall the web interface provides everything you need. There is even a shell of sorts to run configuration commands in directly. It’s definitely a poor UI though.
