This guy went past that to 'the IDF deliberately let 7/10 happen', though, which is... not entirely implausible, but quite a long way beyond the nice, generic 'genocide bad, peace good' stuff that the Labour Left have kept getting instacanned over.

This is basically just what has been reported in Haaretz, Times of Israel, and The New York Times though, without even getting into reporting from other places on how the attacks perfectly served Bibi's interests (electronic Intifada, those kind of outlets). But yeah obviously, dude must have known he was pulling the ripcord on his party political career or else he's a gigantic loving dumbass

I'll wait for the twitter video. Yeah I don't think this guy knew what he was doing to himself hence the prostrating himself apologizing afterwards. Might as well go all in now though.

Tesseraction posted:The worst an "over the top" trigger warning is gonna make me do is glaze over while it shows/is read out. But that's fine, this warning wasn't meant for me, and it's not going to change the way I consume whatever media it is. The way some chain food places do allergy/ingredient information would work as a useful kind of analogy for how entertainment warnings could work - where you have the allergy information front and centre and then you can get the ingredient/detailed nutritional information on a website or leaflet as supporting info if there are very specific things you want to avoid or take into consideration. Continue/expand the kind of 'big ticket' warnings for sexual assault, graphic violence etc on listings, store pages etc but then have easily accessible far more detailed warnings elsewhere for those who have particular concerns that they want to avoid. Those Christian 'family review' type sites that slate any violent or amoral games and movies do tend to be actually good for this kind of thing. They generally give a breakdown of exactly what kind of unpleasantness happens which can be useful if there are certain kinds of thing you want to avoid.

They were. It'll be interesting to know what 'reasonable expenses' are considered to be. Can this be found out via FOI? It would be doubly hilarious if GBNews stiffed the audience
