This isn’t a war crime — you may be thinking of the war crime of transporting military personnel in vehicles with medical markings (red cross, etc)

Dictatorships are fragile. It takes a tremendous amount of work to keep them in place because they have no flexibility. Democracies are chaotic but that allows them to “bend” and spring back. It’s a bit like skyscrapers swaying in the wind, or airplane wings flexing. Dictatorships can’t brook that and try to be rigid.

Sometimes I think most users on this website are children. Either that or your brain development has been stunted by Marvel slop.

It’s not a distortion of the truth to read “The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying” and write a headline of “Israel May Kill Every Palestinian Left in North Gaza, UN Official Warns”.

Of course it is, when you’re claiming that somebody else actually said those words. If somebody tells you “XYZ” and you write that the person said “WXY” you don’t get to put their name on it and attribute those words to them.

Histrionics and distorting the truth doesn’t help the cause at all. The other side can and will point to this as manipulation of the facts and use it to discredit the actual truth.

That isn’t how journalism works. If you say someone said something, they had better have really said that thing. You can’t twist and rephrase it willy-nilly. For example, I could twist your reply to say:

“Caring about factual reporting is ridiculous”
— Samvega

That’s being charitable. They’ve completely fabricated a statement and attributed it to Msuya. No wonder their “fact check” score is so low.

MAGAs: “Joke’s on you, I’m into that shit”

It isn’t even close to making a profit. They are bleeding billions per year with no obvious path to breaking even, let alone profiting enough to justify their enormous valuation. It’s very much a bubble and I look forward to the day it pops.

Can’t wait to see the bots explain how this is actually a sign of a healthy economy that can continue this war indefinitely, and sanctions totally aren’t working bro I swear bro
