Re: YouTube erased more than 700 videos documenting Israeli human rights violations
#112There was an article yesterday about Jimmy Wales commenting on edit wars on the Wikipedia entry for Genocide in Gaza (or similar title). The article didn't indicate his taking one side or the other, but I'd prefer if people didn't use name-recognition to influence such things (yes, even if they take the same side as me because others will do the same in the other direction).

You describe a laradox. If Jimmy Wales didn't say it, you never would have ended up making this comment. And thus attention to the matter that there are even edit wars on Gaza would be suppressed.
We're a social species, so attaching a familiar name or face will always get more attention. You can even observe this on Reddit in how including a person holding the artwork (male or female) instead of the art alone results in more upvotes. so the face doesn't even need a reputation behind it.

acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
Reducing the population isn't required. Intent and acts are tested against the legal framework.

> your personal (not hosted by a corp) website I'm not sure that's enough. A few years ago there were some set of websites that wanted less censorship than the main corporate sites (or at least, a different set of censorship rules), I forget all their names now - voat, rumble, gab, parler, etc and people who didn't like the content they saw there just went upstream to cloud providers, app stores, registrars, payment…

4000 deliveries in march of this year. 50000 pregnant woman [1]
50,000 births by july of last year [2]
latest official (by hamas) death toll is 63000 [3]
so, if you go by numbers, population probably grown last year. or over last 2 years
