Sorry, i dont want to be rude, but do you actually have any arguments other than gesturing at the article & giving both-sides-isms?

Hamas has committed war crimes, yes, however it shouldn't be ignored that Israel is currently engaged in terrorism, genocide, land grabs, torture of prisoners and more. Simply saying "both sides bad" lays the blame more evenly than it should be laid.

The article also mentions that Israel has started using it in their own propaganda videos. showing the triangle over targets as they're hit, and when you flip it like that there's a very clear implication of destroying the symbol of freedom... Which is to say, I still fail to see your ultimate point. You're just pointing at the news article and saying "SEE! THEY SAY ITS BAD!"

Could you provide some actual argumentation to go with that?

And just so it doesnt seem like I'm running, "Targeting reticle" would imply a weapon optic or similar, hence my confusion. "using it to mark targets" would have been clearer.

Asking you what you mean by calling the triangle a "targeting reticle" absolutely does not mean I don't know the topic at hand, its me asking you to clarify your argumentation.

What is this even in reference to? Do you care to elaborate on the propaganda you're trying to spew, or are you just expecting me to know the same talking points as you?

Now I might just be too stupid to understand what I'm displaying, but last I checked, the red triangle has been a symbol of pro-Palestinian support since the Palestinian Revolt in uhhhh... 1938. It's possible Hamas might have co-opted it, but then you might as well ban the Palestinian flag as well since that's the source of the triangle, and it has also existed since 1917, I'm failing to follow how this is a symbol of Hamas

This is specifically talking about stores like crumbl cookies I think (appears to be what the cookie in the picture is). Very fancy, quite overpriced, pretty tasty, but kinda doughy in the center IMO.

I totally understand where you're coming from. It's absolutely not uncommon to casually refer to high-rank NCOs as Officers (in Canada at least)

Well... "They're all" is kinda rhetorical shorthand, but the vast, vast majority of Israeli citizens are colonizers definitionally, just like how "all" north Americans are colonizers (obviously except indigenous people). The difference is that the USA/Canadian settler colonial projects have already """succeeded""".

To build a fire is so good! Would highly recommend it to anyone that is familiar with 'The Cremation of Sam McGee'

A. Care to provide any evidence for your "gender is a mental disorder" point? Even a little?

B. No one actually cuts a penis off, just FYI

C. Its not uncommom for Cis teenage girls get breast reduction surgery, or even implants. Do you have issue with this? Or do you only have an issue when it's trans men getting a mastectomy?

D. Why you gotta be weird dude? I guarantee you've interacted with at least a handful of trans people in your life and were genuinely clueless about it. (I'm pre-empting the "we can always tell")

Edit: didnt notice he's banned. Leaving it anyway.

Yes and at the end of the day it's all just binary getting dumped into a cache and processed by the CPU. The point is that the intent of the file matters and while they do both hold text, the intent, purpose, and handling of the kernel mode/ring 0 driver is much different than a "simple text file"

So different in fact, that as another user pointed out, it has happened to Linux too
