      Seems nonsense to me, no clue what it means or more crucially if it’s even a good or bad thing.

        You need to read much more from independent journalists and dissident sources.

        Echo chambers and self-censorship do not help us; they hinder us from learning and growing as people.

        Most of the media is pro-Israel misinformation controlled by the oligarchy; the duopoly is also controlled by the oligarchy.

        Search up the Hannibal Directive as well.

            I did a quick explanation of my findings, which did include reading some of that article, though I found it independently.

            NGL that article in particular is a bit of a sprawling mess and not easy to comprehend quickly.

      After arguing with some.people about things and finally going and reading a bunch of shit, I’m pretty sure it’s in reference to the people that were at a rave like ~4 miles from Gaza and a military base that was a target for the oct 7 attack, and because of the proximity there was lots of confusion about who was military or civilian. Also one thing I read said the rave location was announced like 1 day before, so Hamas also did not know it was happening. Anyways a bunch of people died and were taken hostage from it

      So basically BE is alluding to "Coachella” (the rave) next to “Auschwitz”(Gaza) and blaming the capture/death on the people who went there

        Don’t forget that Israel also had intel regarding an upcoming attack but took no action.

      The reply is accurate.

      We must continue to learn and use our critical thinking muscles so as to get past the propaganda we are born into.

          Well, your reply was:

          Am I dumb or is the the reply nonsense

          You set yourself up for failure.

          Then you blame them for answering your question directly.

          We all can and should continue to improve our communication skills.

          We are mostly all human here, so we always have room for improvement and civility.

          Some take the high road, and some say “f the high road.”

            To be fair the expected (and common and civil) kinds of replies to such a comment are either to agree with the second item, or to explain why they misunderstand.

            Sure, just saying “yea ur dumb lol” is technically a reasonable answer, but is not helpful to the discussion, and is pretty rude as a response to a partially self-depricating comment.
