  • Is there another case with over +200 plus killed?

    I’m all for hypotheticals, but the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion lead to millions of people having this exact conversation about media bias, so when you associate the death toll in this context, I am reminded of all those people who fell for blatant misinformation and critize good journalism.

    The OC’s comment reflects the context around the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion exactly. I would think it is naive to have not made the connection, but I also followed the war moderately close.


  • Why do you think I only know of singular hospital attacks? You made it up and judged me for it, because I corrected misinformation.

    And isn’t the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion the only alleged hospital attack with 200+ killed in a single strike? Any reasonable person would connect the above hypothetical with that important awful event.

    Misinformation must be corrected. That shouldn’t only apply to your enemies.



  • What should be done about low post count but swarm account spam? On twitter, I probably blocked 2000 accounts, and no matter what the next day there would be new bot accounts. It made replies unusable. These accounts would only have a few posts, but they make up for it in account volume.

    You can’t report these accounts fast enough, and the information space will be dominated by bad actors.

    I have no issue with bots as a concept if they are marked as on. What I take issue with is the overwhelming of the feed by bots with an agenda and inaction to stop it.

    I don’t think enough is done to combat this.
