Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Man had one job, just to pretend to care and he failed
the worldnews thread on this article is a cesspit of genocide apologia.
It's clearly and openly dishonest. The Isreali ministers of government, including the Prime Minister and President of Israel, were openly announcing their intent not one day after October 7th of their desire to ethnically cleanse and destroy Palestine and Gaza as a polity and a people.
Any proof showing the death, suffering, starvation, and ruination of Gazan Palestinians is Hamas propaganda according to them.
I want to believe most of these are bots or paid posters, but I can absolutely believe there is a multitude of just depraved and cruel white supremacists of different flavors.
If you're having second thoughts or wish to rely on primary sources instead of treating the accusation of genocide as dogma, you can find South Africa's documented case against genocide against Israel here: https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/192/192-20231228-app-01-00-en.pdf
This is an opinion article by Chris Hedges, but he cites his sources and observations to root them in concrete fact:
