The Israel Defense Forces releases surveillance camera footage from Shifa Hospital showing Hamas terrorists bringing a Nepali and Thai citizen who were abducted from Israel on October 7 to the medical center.
If the facts are on your side, I absolutely encourage you to refute incorrect information, just don’t attack the other user in the process.
“I’m sorry, you’re wrong. - Link.”
“Reality disagrees. - Link.”
That’s all cool.
Ad hominem attacks cross the line. When you start going after the other user, that’s a problem and we don’t want flamewar threads top to bottom. That’s why the rule exists.
If you don’t want flame wars then removing obvious flame bait–like lies about mass murdered civilians and hospitals not being bombed–would go a lot farther than deleting everyone that calls that shit what it is.
I’ve explained the mod position multiple times. It’s not up for debate. You’re now starting to shade over into a different form of disingenuous argument affectionately called “sealioning”.

Don’t argue with mods. You can’t win, you can only get removed or banned.
If you want to run a community where it’s more offensive to say someone is ignorant than it is to lie about mass murdered civilians I’m not under the delusion that I can make you do anything else. Just don’t expect me to not say it’s a shitty policy or to ignore what it allows and what it doesn’t allow.
Warned, 3 day ban.
So the rule actually isn’t “don’t make personal attacks”, it’s “don’t tell the mods that their policies are bad.” Maybe you should add that to the sidebar.
Repeated sealioning. 7 day ban.
