Israel’s military has claimed it has encircled Gaza City and divided the besieged coastal strip into two, as Gaza came under its third total communications outage since the start of the war.

“Today, there is north Gaza and south Gaza,” Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters on Sunday, calling it a “significant stage” in Israel’s war against Hamas.

Israeli media reported that troops are expected to enter Gaza City within 48 hours. Strong explosions were seen in northern Gaza after nightfall.

But the “collapse in connectivity” across Gaza reported by internet access advocacy group NetBlocks.org and confirmed by the Palestinian telecom company Paltel made it even more complicated to convey details of the new stage of the military offensive.

      No, the commenter who mentioned being libertarian just got -18 votes for a valid and pretty universal opinion, with the next comment being

      “As a libertarian” is not the way to start an opinion if you want to be taken seriously.

      Funny enough, I recognize the user who’s comment I quoted as the poster of one of the most ridiculous shittakes I’ve seen in recent weeks.

      However, pedophilia is typically brought up within 2-3 comments when someone says they’re a libertarian. That’s not to say it’s the only thought terminator people use. Seems now all they need to say is

      “As a libertarian” is not the way to start an opinion if you want to be taken seriously.

      thought terminated. downvote indiscriminately.
