Community description for ManufacturingConsent is “when the media decides who you are rooting for.” So, being banned for questioning their narrative strikes me as absurdly funny. I mean, I guess if the idea of the community is that geneva_convenience should decide whom you root for, that would track.

The post in question: https://piefed.ca/post/266435

(I pointed out that the Guardian was probably including the hostages who died after the attacks. This really bugged OP and led to a ban.)

I don’t really care for a remedy, seems a silly place. Just thought it was funny as heck.

(For what it’s worth, like most, I side with Palestine but I think being accurate lends credence to our cause.)

    Just so I understand, it’s totally cool and heck, probably good for Hamas to murder as many Israelis as they can but simultaneously, we are embarrassed about accurately counting the killed?

      about accurately counting the killed?

      What are you counting so “accurately,” Clyde? Do you have an “accurate” tally of all the Israelis the IDF slaughtered on Oct 7 because murdering Palestinians is far more important to them than keeping their own people alive?

      Just so I understand,

      Don’t feign ignorance… seems to me that you know exactly what you are doing here.

          Then you sould have no problem providing us with these “accurate” numbers of yours, shouldn’t you?

                In the post, the thing about which you are commenting, there’s the death total provided by OP. There are hostages, taken in the attack who died as a result of being taken hostage.

                I provided both in the comment in this post.

                I have no idea what accurate tallies you are demanding or what they would have to do with the Guardians headline. Are you a bot?

                Holy shit kid, I was going to give an actual response but then, good God, read your comment history. You seem determined to be miserable at people.

                I hope you are more pleasant in real life and/or things get better for you.

                Take care.

                    1,758 comments in ten months with a 34% up/down ration, I can’t imagine choosing to spend so much time being so unpleasant and seemingly unhappy.

                    It just seems wild to me. They have almost 2K comments and if they’re mostly like this… Like, it doesn’t seem enough to be trolling just… unpleasant? Blech.

      Yes. Dead Nazis are always a good thing, and it’s extra cool when their victims do it.

          Do you still remember being human? I’m always curious about that with Nazis. What would the human you were have said to the thing you are now?
