    My friend the real death toll could be ten times the 40k killed I’m being told by the media. I don’t know, I’ve never been there. Everything is so fucked it’s hard to know who to believe.

      The UN has published the estimated deaths to be at least 200k+ because of famine and the lack of medical care.

      • Humanitarian aid was blocked
      • Food trucks were stopped
      • Hospitals are bombed

      That’s a Genocide.

        Oh yeah, I’m using very low numbers (ie. just the bodies who have been identified) so there’s little room for argument. The actual death toll is unknowable because it’s so large.

        Oh yeah, no doubt about it. I just can’t ever know how many bodies are under the remains of their buildings. I imagine that could even be a conservative number. I doubt they were doing a census.

        It’s making me sick thinking about it every day and I’m so privileged to even have the luxury of giving a shit.
