Primal was superb
I believe you can protest whatever, even things that are not real (like the so called genocide, where the population actually grows). There should of course be limits to your protest: violence against people you disagree with should never be an option.

PS: if you can stop the war by returning all the hostages, it's not a genocide.

I agree 100% - I would point out that it's not the Jewish students who set "encampments".
Asking to stop harassing Jewish students is not an "assault".

It also is not that difficult.

I don't get it: is it that hard to afford Jewish students the same protections as other minorities ?
Re:Be Aware of the Makefile Effect on Saturday January 11, 2025 @02:18AM (#42663995)
I call it the yoghurt effect.
"There's no reason to waste time addressing those claims..."

that's convenient.

"absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

in any case, I doubt there is any proof that I could offer that would be enough to change your mind. you already know what you want to believe, so this is just online pugilism.

be well !

sorry - hope this link helps. If you want to know more there's this website called google.com , where you can look for more information.

"AP Hamas claim panned, Blinken’s ‘seen no evidence’ of presence in their HQ" (May 2021) https://nypost.com/2021/05/17/ap-slammed-for-claiming-it-was...

it's crazy indeed, the lengths hamas will go to protect their image.

"Hamas threatening journalists in Gaza who expose abuse of civilians" (2014)

https://www.timesofisrael.com/hamas-threatening-journalists-...

They had the misfortune of sharing the building with hamas terrorists. When I say misfortune, I mean AP knew but turned a blind eye.

"Israel provides U.S. with info showing Hamas operated in the building from which AP operated" https://www.ynetnews.com/article/Hy008WIZFu

Similar to "CRTC bans Russian state-controlled TV channels RT, RT France from Canadian airwaves", but with the addition of Al Jazeera (funded by Qatar) leaking sensitive information to enemies of Israel, during a war.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/crtc-russia-today-broadcast...

there's an even simpler solution to the war in gaza: have hamas release all the hostages.

this word (as several others) made its way into Hebrew.
people use to program by punching cards. then compilers came.

I'd say the opposite is about to happen: the boilerplate work will be done by AI, leaving more time to higher level abstractions to humans.

That's a generalization and takes away from people's agency. for luck to play a part in your life, you need to show up and work.
