The lemmy.world news mods are absolutely biased, break their own rules blatantly, and clearly support a left/far-left agenda.

That said, it's pretty unnecessary to hide genocide when the ICJ hasn't ruled one occurred yet.

What do you mean that Lemmy.world is now "far-left?" They've always been extremely liberal, not left.

Additionally, we don't need to wait on the ICJ to see 200,000 dead Palestinians.

Please read more carefully. I did not say "is now..." and the civilian casualty count is nowhere near 200k but rather closer to 40k.

Edit: But I also agree they are liberal too.

Oh, so you just think liberalism is far-left, ie you're far-right, gotcha.

As for the causalties, estimates have put it at 186,000.

Edit: called it

Reuters vs Aljazeera... I wonder which is the more believable news source, particularly with regards to Israel events.

edit: Without getting into the weeds Liberalism and Left/Right are usually considered separate spectrums and the definition varies wildly depending on where you're from.

"Israel events?" This encompasses Palestinian deaths at the hands of Israel, calling it "Israel events" seems like suspicious framing.

Is the source the only part you take issue with, not the numbers?

Edit: Oh, you're a Zionist, no wonder

Leaving when you get called out for supporting genocide, lmao

Just now, the IDF has rioted against being held accountable for raping Palestinians, and lawmakers ultimately defended the IDF's right to rape Palestinian prisoners.

Liberal Zionism is not left. Right-wing or far-right is where it is.

Not surprising a Zionist would show up to claim there's no Genocide and sprinkle in more disinformation.
