Hamas is literally the elected government of Palestine. They are the authority in Gaza that releases these numbers.

Turns out there's a reason that getting anything and everything delivered on demand hasn't ever worked. It's not a function that is worth the cost to very many people.

That's exactly what Hamas wants to see because that's what gets Israeli to lose international support and prompts Arab nations to invade.

They don't give a shit about the Palestinian people.

Is he making this easy on purpose?

Most of these were trained/tested using third world labor on mechanical turk. It actually helps to approach the problem from that understanding:

"Would a person who speaks English as a second language and who is getting paid less than a penny to decide, call this a motorcycle?"

Dude needs to answer about a million of those to make money, so he's not overthinking it, your knee-jerk answer is probably right.

Must be nice living in countries where the government works for humans instead of corporations.

Sounds like you aren't intelligent enough to understand this. This is why fascists attack schools first, they need people like you.

It's funny how much conservatives struggle with finding people who aren't criminals and frauds. Almost like there is something fundamental about them that attracts horrible people and repels everyone else.

OG startrek was probably the "wokest" thing on TV in the sixties. And a bunch of grouchy old men that no one cared about bitched about it back then too.

The complete unwinding of social safety nets, mental health interventions, and educational funding from the Reagan years finally culminated in a completely vulnerable population. Then we began the era of 24 hour news, extremist Identity politics, and just a general erosion of any semblance of shared American identity.

That's a nasty little stew.

This implies that your food won't arrive cold if you do tip, and that hasn't been my experience at all.

I mean yeah, that's where the Palestinians are, who did they think was the target of a military attack on a city?

It's getting hard for people to pretend that this isn't a genocide when the people doing it aren't even bothering to pretend it isn't.

That, that's the exact problem he is pointing out.

You don't think the literal wall that has everyone in Graza literally trapped inside Gaza might have something to do with why there are so many civilians there?

If the number of Texans showing up in Seattle is why indication it certainly does seem to be a factor.

They haven't prevented him from saying anything. They prevent him from attacking witnesses and court employees which is well within scope of a gag order.

Gag orders on indicted felons who can't shut up are extremely common. He isn't likely to prevail on that.

The whole point of having communities is to establish a focus of discussion. You wouldn't come in here to talk about flower arranging.

You know that a gag order is a specific restriction on free speech that courts can issue, right? That's literally what they are for.

It's actually illegal to threaten a federal judge whether you have a gag order or not, but yeah, this falls short of that. He needs to be very careful about "going after a judge", which isn't advice that most people need to hear, but here we are.
