Reminds me of the London A to Z before the era of smartphones with map apps.

Still have one in some box somewhere.

But evidently the government believes in a different model of legitimacy: they believe that legitimacy is derived from the mere fact that they hold power.

Well, been * ahem * told that a friend of a friend didn't found any videos there were "Your friendly neighborhood geek goes into the house of a hot milf to upgrade her Windows 10 machine to Arch and she shows them how hot she found their Linux install skills and how thankful she is", so that seems unlikely.

From your own link: "This data set, which includes only official deaths in which identification could be confirmed"

Who did most of the counting and identification? The Gazan Hospitals that Israel blew up.

Corpses shoved to mass graves by IDF soldiers (who have even posted photos and videos of doing it) don't get counted, much less "identified". And don't get me started op those burried under the rubble of bombed buildings, especially once the Israelis started targetting ambulances and rescue services.

That kind of shit is like mid Nazi Holocaust claiming there were no deaths in Auchwitz, since the Nazis didn't care to keep track of the identity of those they killed hence the count of "official deaths in which identification could be confirmed" was zero.

Yeah, right, it's because you're wholly apolitical and concerned above all with the plight of Palestinians that under an article about Evidence pointing to Israel's continued used of Starvation to inflict Genocide on Palestinians you felt the need to explicitly make it about Trump and mentioned no other of the many supporters and enablers of Israel and its Genocide

Go pull the other one.

If you weren't trying to bring in your pet peeve in American politics you would've just said "America" (since the whole fucking political mainstream there are Genocide enablers) or, even better, mention all of the most egregious supporters of Israel and its Genocide: America, Britain and Germany (in all of which, curiously, the whole fucking political mainstream are Genocide enablers).

You're confusing "not being counted because the Gaza Hospitals were they did the counting were destroyed by Israel" with "not occurring".

There was a study published in the Lancet Medical Journal about 6 months ago that back then estimated around 200k Palestinian dead even while the official figures remained stuck around the 50k mark since about 3 months into the invasion (when most Hospitals in Gaza were destroyed).

You're parroting Zionist propaganda and I don't really know if it's because you yourself have fallen for it or some other, malevolent, reasons.

(Given that you're doing this under an article about how Amnesty International gathered evidence that Israel is "using starvation of civilians as a weapon of war against Palestinians", I know which of those two possibilities I would bet on)

It's about Russia and it's militarist expansionism, not about Trump.

Well, yeah - he's a stereotypical bully (just notice how he uses the threat of lawsuits to bully small contractors supplying his companies which he doesn't want to pay) and those invariably see appeasement as proof of the weakness of the other side and will double down on the bullying if they get concessions to extract even more.

Bully, get concessions, bully some more, get more concessions, bully some more, get more concessions and so on is a pretty standard process for bullies.

The way to deal with bullies is to do the exact opposite of giving concessions: go in the very opposite direction and fuck them up, don't just respond in kind, respond with a more hurtful response than their original action. If they react to this by pushing harder, push them back even harder and they always end up backing down, especially if they can come up with some bullshit to save face: China has perfectly demonstrated this process with Trump's tariffs.

For crying out loud, stop trying to score political points in US politics when murdering brown people and helping Israel do so is the ultimate bipartisan subject in the US.

You can find differences between the two "sides" in US politics on some subjects (though often the distance is fag paper thin). but in this they're on the same side, with at most the only difference being that the Democract establishment would rather Israel was a bit more quiet in their mass murdering.

I started calling this a New Holocaust ever since it became obvious that Israel was trying to starve Palestinians to death.

So apparently for lemmy.world mods pointing out that the word "anti-semite" is far more used than "antigypsyism, anti-Romanyism, antiziganism, ziganophobia, or Romaphobia” even though the Nazis targetted both Jews and Roma in the Holocaust, is, somehow, "Criticizing Jewish people as a whole".

Or maybe it's the whole "I don't care about any one specific race, I care about people and think it's always unjusct when people are treated differently based on things they were born with, such as race" that was deemed "Criticizing Jewish people as a whole".

Good old lemmy.world: they were called on it repeatedly so eventually walked back on the whole "criticizing Israel is anti-semitic" but apparently if you don't go along with the view that racism against a very specific group is much worse than racism against people from other groups, then you must be against that specific ethnic group.

My comment in text for reference:

All clearly as frequently used as "anti-semitism" /s

And yeah, I don't care about race, any race, I care about people, which includes that they're not unjustly treated for things that were not their choice, such as the race they were born into.

It's Racists who feel the need to care about a race or races, defending things for some races which they do noit defend for others, doing little performances about how others must care about those races too and that those who don't "are against those races" - for them race comes first, defining a person and dictating how they should be treated.

For Humanists race is something that should be of as little importance to how somebody is treated as the color of their eyes or how tall they are, and yet they see again and again race weponized by Racists to treat people differently even though those people haven't actually earned such treatment through their actions: in other words race fro Humanists is something that should be irrelevant yet has been turned by others into a pivot for injustice.

It's pretty obvious from your little performance which one you are
