Well fuck.
We can't keep everyone happy. I'll agree that this post gave me pause. I think it's better to error on the side of leaving things up.
Please report the post if you think it violates rules, and please specify which rules and why.
I'm sure Netanyahu also wants it to end right after he gets his sadistic goals.
As of mid 2024 the lowest estimate I found was >7000 Palestinian children dead, as compared to a highest estimate of <100 Israeli children dead. Any child dead is too many but it shows that this is not a war, it's a slaughter.
I voted for Harris because any alternative is asinine, but we should expect that the arms shipments to Israel will continue unless we pressure our politicians.

This was reported for breaking rule 1,4,5.
1 The votes seem to agree that it's not a shower thought. I'm slow to remove a post for this rule, I would rather let the votes do the work.
4 I'm not sure saying this about Putin is saying anything about any people group. You can be hugely supportive of people groups while thinking their leaders are responsible for, or capable of, horrible things. At various times nearly every country could be used as an example of this.
5 I'm not sure what community rule it's breaking. It's not a very positive post but people should be free to be negative online if they that's how they feel. Lord knows that many comment threads are negative. I may feel differently if the the majority of posts suddenly became negative.
As always I'm open to feedback.
That's interesting, thank you. I didn't know anything about Gujarati, this is a cool opportunity to learn!
Google translated it as "Nine days and seven days are tight".
Does that sound like a good translation to you?
So when someone changes a light bulb, which direction to turn is just a feeling in their bones?
That's fair.
The concept of a shower thought is annoyingly abstract, so I error on the side of leaving posts up, but maybe this is a good chance to get the perspectives of others:
- Is the problem, or part of the problem, that the post is a question?
- Or maybe the post is not whimsical enough?
- Do people think a shower thought can ever be a question?
- Is it something else that makes this not a shower thought?
This post was reported for breaking community rules. Its not obvious to me what rules would be broken. dm me if you feel strongly about it and would like to clarify.
I'm not sure that it's possible to move posts but that would be funny. Maybe c/powerthoughts
