Other sources state that a number of people were arrested for supporting proscribed terror groups, presumably including these people supporting Hezbollah, those wearing parachutes in homage to Hamas, and possibly including those praising the Houthis.

I suppose marching alongside such people is a nice way for some folks of a particular character to mark a year since Hamas's massacre — as well as those others detailed in this article participating in holocaust inversion, assaulting emergency workers, and threatening counter-protestors with being finished off by 'freedom fighters'.

This new age is very strange. Folks railing against liberal-democratic structures and institutions while praising autocrats and theocratic-fascist terror groups.

That's atrocious behaviour if they're really doing that.

I guess a GDPR request is in order then.

Deleting posts and comments (lemmy.rhys.wtf)

15 comments fedilink

A few days ago I finally found inspiration to go back and delete all my content from reddit — 15 years' worth.

I wrote a little script using PRAW to first go through posts then comments, fetching 1,000 at a time (the most the API supports per query) from each category and time frame, then deleting them. This appeared to work perfectly — I now have no comments or posts available when I log in and look at my profile, and my script no longer finds any via the API.

Then yesterday I got notified of a reply to one of my old comments. Clicking through, there was a comment I'd made a year ago, still intact. I confirmed it wasn't visible through my profile then deleted it, but now I'm worried that much of my content might still be available without being visible in my profile.

Is there something I'm missing? I recall hearing during the API changes that some protections were being put in place to prevent users from deleting their content — have I bumped up against that? Should I just delete my account and forget about it? Would a GDPR request to delete all my data work?

Any insight as to what's going on here would be much appreciated.

Sometimes I find the gleeful acceptance of Hamas's monstrous rule and apologia for their heinous crimes we see online almost too much to bear.

I am glad this woman has finally been rescued from what must have been hell for her. I hope in time more and more people in Gaza get the opportunity to be freed from Hamas's cruel grip on power.
