  • oppression, theft of land, and brutality isn't a way forward if the aim is to stop bloodshed from both sides.

    Unfortunately, the aim is to:

    • from the one side, to have a State of Israel on land promised by the British to the Arabs
    • on the other, to have an Islamic State on land taken by the Zionists from the British
    • on another, to have the Armageddon begin and trigger the second coming of Christ
    • on still another, to have all the infidels exterminated and have the whole world convert to Islam

    Stopping bloodshed is not part of either side, some of the sides are actually asking for more bloodshed 🤦

  • In my experience, Mini B was mostly used for data transfer, along with some other port to do the charging. Micro B got introduced as the "all in one" data+charging port. I've seen both kinds of ports break, but only the Mini B ones that were also used for charging; the data-only ones, were fine.

    My conclusion is that charging ports use more insertion cycles and are more likely to break, and I keep magnetic charging adapters in all of them (as a side effect, twisting the cable or pulling at an angle just disconnects it, instead of breaking the port).

  • If you check the modlog for this community on LW, you may notice a removal of a top post for the mediabiasfactcheck of the source... which apparently places it too close to center with no failed fact checks, or something.

  • it's like watching two children fighting over who's sandcastles can be built in the sandbox

    Welcome to war.

    And what do we do if children can't learn to share? You take away everything and no one is happy.

    So is that what this is going to come to? Do adults need to intervene to quell the infants?

    That would be nice... only there are no adults.

    PS: any adults 👽 out there... whenever you're ready, we welcome you 🛸

  • Misinformation covers situations like defamation and many kinds of hate speech.

    Not really:

    • Misinformation: “false information that is spread, regardless of whether there is intent to mislead.”
    • Disinformation: “deliberately misleading or biased information; manipulated narrative or facts; propaganda.”

    The difference is between "I don't believe you, so you get banned" vs. "I think you're trying to mislead people, so you get banned".

    Misinformation allows banning any information a mod believes to be "false", for whatever reason, no matter the proof.

    (PS: if any mod doesn't agree with these definitions, they could remove this comment based on "misinformation")

  • Create a community and invite over the nice users? If it's just a misunderstanding, try talking it out with the mods? If you have a political motivation... sorry, can't help you there, most online forums are not the place to run a campaign that doesn't align with the nod's views, there is no free speech protection on non-government property.

  • reveddit.com/whatever and you can see most of deleted comments.

    Deleted, not edited comments. The linked comment would be edited to say "Removed by Reddit", which reveddit wouldn't see as a deleted comment, and it didn't keep an edit history so there was no way to see what the comment said before (I know, I tried).

    You could see it in context, but if you thought you didn't break any rules, that wouldn't help much, and no way to argue it.

    Anyway, my best ban was for "violent content" from a sub with no link. Decided to blank the last month of comments... and got suspended site wide for repeated "violent content" offense. Blanked 10 years of comments... and that bought me 2 more years before getting suspended again, and perma banned when I appealed the suspension.

    Cherry on the top: a couple months after being perma-banned site-wide, last week I got banned from a sub. Reason: link to a blanked comment, "breaking the sub rules". OK 🥱

  • Holocaust refugees who were turned away by every other country in their hour of need

    You may want to read up more on that:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliyah

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel

    Immigration to the land of Israel started way before the Holocaust or the establishment of the state of Israel, actually against the wishes of the British, and it wasn't the British who pushed a million Palestinians out.

    After WWII the Jewish population understandably feared staying in non-friendly countries, but still during the early 1950s about 10% of the immigrants left to other countries that had no problem taking them in.

    However, the bulk of immigration happened following a pre-Holocaust One Million Plan, which ended up focusing on Jews from Islamic countries... ironically not because of Holocaust refugee status, but over concerns of retaliation for taking over the land of Israel from the Palestinians in the first place. Which indeed, they did retaliate.

    And look at that, the conflict has continued festering to this day.

    If it wasn't for the Zionist agenda, there might not have been a state of Israel... and Jews might have been to this day living as before in Islamic countries among others without fear of persecution, with Holocaust refugees having plenty of choices ready to take them in. Alas, the Zionist agenda won, and the number of Jewish refugees increased several-fold... which only further fed the agenda.

    The implications of all that for the radicalization of the Islamic world, would be an exercise for another time.

  • Well, actually... Chernobyl has shown us how to establish a long lasting war-free zone.

    Most peaceful place on Earth, even while surrounded by an ongoing war, self-preserving whether soldiers know to not dig trenches in the red forest or not, great for nature and wildlife, and it's going to be like that for the next 20,000 years or so.

    If evangelicals have their say, they might get something similar going on in the region:
