🤣

🤦🏽‍♂️

😭

Why is this number so drastically higher than other numbers I’ve seen? I thought it was in the 40 thousands?

(Not like that’s any better. Genocide is genocide. I’m just a bit perturbed by how different the number is then when I last heard.)

UPDATE: Further along in the linked document it clarified…

“In total it is likely that 62,413 people have died of starvation and its compilations in Gaza from October 7, 2023 to September 30, 2024. Most of these will have been young children.”

That figure is an addition to the 42,000 that have died from the violence.

Holy hell… 😭

There are a lot of valid reasons to detest the guy. Going out on a limb with weird conspiratorial accusations isn’t really necessary. Already enough of that weird nonsense out there. Just sayin.

She turned me into a newt!

I never imagined so many incidents of this type. 😬

It just seems strange because I don’t think that many people are on the fence. Perhaps I’m crazy, but I feel most people know exactly who they’re voting for already. Makes me wonder how valid this cross-section was that was used as the sample set. If it accurately represents the US, including undecided voters, then… 😮

Who is this guy and how serious should we take this information? This is by far the highest number I’ve seen for Trump so far.

Yelled “noooooooooo” without thinking.

Spouse is now upset for me yelling. I don’t care. If there is any time to yell, this is one

This… is… really really sad. 😭

Good grief.

Where’s the strength in a strike if a court can just order people back to work…?

Boost has an auto fill button that copies the headline.

How about that.

Honestly never had a clue. Thanks for the share.

May it be so.

Influencers don’t register on my radar and I actively ignore them. But bigots… oh… f*ck them. Let justice be had and this dad prevail.

I can’t imagine why…

I’d love for him to give this some attention. It’s been mentioned for quite a while. A couple channels just added a new bot which uses spoiler tags to hide excessive information. now it makes these ridiculously huge comments for every single post…

This is what it looks like for me on Boost:

Would love love love to see markdown support updated particularly for spoiler tags.

I think it’s a great addition, but it sure does eat up a lot of space. Any way it can be condensed to the absolute basic information?

This is what it looks like for me on Boost:

Sounds like something a bot would ask. 🤔

I found the wiki article helpful. Perhaps you will as well.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_panic_defense

The gay panic defense or homosexual advance defence is a victim blaming strategy of legal defense, which refers to a situation in which a heterosexual individual charged with a violent crime against a homosexual (or bisexual) individual claims they lost control and reacted violently because of an unwanted sexual advance that was made upon them. A defendant will use available legal defenses against assault and murder, with the aim of seeking an acquittal, a mitigated sentence, or a conviction of a lesser offense. A defendant may allege to have found the same-sex sexual advances so offensive or frightening that they were provoked into reacting, were acting in self-defense, were of diminished capacity, or were temporarily insane, and that this circumstance is exculpatory or mitigating.

This has no bearing on the admitted facts or evidence. The goal is to prevent the defense from basically saying, “They deserved it because they were gay/trans, and that surprised/scared me so much I acted violently.” It’s like saying you punched someone because they were wearing a different colored shirt. It’s not okay to hurt someone because of who they are.

The law was passed to prevent victim blame and to make it clear that being gay/trans isnt scary. People are people. And violence isn’t okay, even if one’s bigotry causes them act irrationally.
