Because I'm not out to win a Pyhrric victory. I'm done. I'm done emailing the mods and bitching about them banning people who've been contributing members for years, without the slightest whiff of warning.
Y'all (Slashdot.org) killed off anonymous posting, shat all over posting code, didn't stop the Nazi spam monkeys anyway, banned the word Nazi.
You do recall there's a news website that doesn't pull this shit? Anyone remember Fuck Beta? Yeah, gimme some soylent.
This place finally tossed in the towel completely.

Looks like Slashdot is banning accounts for no reason. I'm not going to name names, but you people are fucked up.

We need to replace "demonetize" with "remonetize". When companies say they "demonetize", they aren't actually not monetizing it--they're just keeping the money for themselves.
The doublespeak is real.

Then maybe we should stop supplying arms to the conflict.

*A crap ton is significantly larger than a metric ton and thus suited for situations such as this.
How does that relate to the metric shit ton?

There are so many logical fallacies here, I don't even want to start.
when your basis for argument is anything other than that killing of civilians is unequivocally wrong no matter who does it then you have to be seen as anti-semitic
What if only the Chinese and Japanese were involved? Why does that make Pimpy antisemitic?
English, you should try it sometime. That whole thing is a dog's breakfast of incoherent raving that makes no logical sense as soon as you try to parse it.

"Hamas retaliates after Israel attack destroys Gaza residential tower"
I think that's not the position you were trying to support. Didn't you mean to find some propaganda that showed how Hamas struck first?

From TFS:
But his tweet with the footage, which was shared hundreds of times as the conflict between Palestinians and Israelis escalated, was not from Gaza. It was not even from this week. Instead, the video that he shared, which can be found on many YouTube channels and other video-hosting sites, was from 2018. And according to captions on older versions of the video, it showed militants firing rockets not from Gaza but from Syria or Libya.
Your comment was disingenuous, because the story is about Israel officially misrepresenting the source of a video, and even the identities and nationalities of the persons in the video.
Yes, Hamas has launched rockets at Israeli civilian areas. That's not what the story is about. You're offtopic. The story is about a fabricated news story based around taking a video from an entirely other country and claiming that it's some people locally who they'd like to bulldoze and murder.

5590 Palestinian deaths.
251 Israeli deaths.
Who's the real aggressor here?

jhylkema writes: Just 12 people account for the lion's share of anti-vaccination propaganda posted to three of the leading social media outlets, according to a study from a London-based group opposed to online hate and disinformation. According to the NPR report, a study (PDF file) conducted by the Centre for the Countering of Digital Hate identified the "Disinformation Dozen" people, including RFK Jr., Joseph Mercola, and Sherri Tenpenny, who account for 65% of the anti-vaccine content posted to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and 73% of the same posted to Facebook. In its study, the group blasts the social media companies for allowing their platforms to be abused and calls for them to be de-platformed. "Living in full view of the public on the internet are a small group of individuals who... are abusing social media platforms to misrepresent the threat of Covid and spread misinformation about the safety of vaccines," the study said in its introduction. "Facebook, Google and Twitter have put policies into place to prevent the spread of vaccine misinformation; yet to date, all have failed to satisfactorily enforce those policies."

Yes. Mass surveillance databases; the possession, creation, sale, or distribution of; should be illegal.

That's wonderful, except if you need that captcha to avoid consuming programmatic resources...
If you give it to them anyway (but HAH! you know they're not legit!)... you still gave them the resources.
