Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Holly shit the mental gymnastics here are astounding. You're just casually assuming that she is some kind of top geopolitical expert.

Nope. I'm merely refraining from assuming without evidence that she's endorsing terrorism.

You don't have to be "some kind of top geopolitical expert" to know that Hamas don't tend to film their atrocities themselves and that oppressed Palestinians very often film the atrocities of the Israeli occupation forces.

If there's any mental gymnastics here, it's in confusing common knowledge for elite geopolitical expertise.
