Is there a way that someone can test for this at home? It seems troubling that children had to be poisoned before any action was taken.

I left beehaw because I was being targeted by a user using gaslighting and lies.

When I responded to this user (I will admit, too strongly), the mods removed my comments, but left his initial lies and gaslighting up, even though I had reported them (and even messaged one of the admins directly – it was actually a beehaw admin’s actions against my comments.) To be clear, I understood the removal of my comments, but I did not understand why the user’s lies and rudeness against me still remained.

I mentioned tumblr because it was where the information I was sharing had initiated, and I encouraged people to take the discussion there, since a productive discussion was no longer possible here. I never said I was moving there myself.

I then removed the rest of my comments and posts on beehaw.

I was already on tumblr, so I didn’t “move from” Beehaw to there. I was also already on this account, so nor did I move here – I was already here all along, where I’ve had no similar problems.

I saw a BBC documentary about a similar situation. People are being exploited on both sides of the phone line.

Incorrect. I challenge you to scour my post and comment history for any mention of Hamas or anything that would justify you asking such a question. (I’ll save you some time – you won’t find it.)

Otherwise, we’ll just assume you’re deflecting.

I have no doubt there are official confessions obtained via coercion including threats and possible torture.

Lol gotta love these deflections and whataboutisms. I always wonder if you lot are deliberately deflecting, or if you’re just incapable of engaging in any meaningful way.

It’s true that I don’t trust the IDF here, just as I wouldn’t trust the SS in WWII. If you think that’s farfetched, then I will hope you come to your senses.

This is also true. Any way you cut it, the IDF are the villains in this story.

They can also force confessions of terrorism! Pretty bold headline that’s parroting IDF propaganda, if you ask me. Wouldn’t say this article belongs in a news community.

Username checks out

(Sorry, I know this is a serious issue, but my brain is fried and I couldn’t resist. To be clear, I fully agree with everything you’ve said here.)

So this was driving me nuts, so I had to look it up. I thought I dreamed it.

Apparently, this continued for centuries, and may have contributed to Beethoven’s illness and death.

I think I actually read about it in a thread here on Lemmy.

I read the article. Is this because lead has a sweet, appealing flavor? I remember reading this was a huge problem at certain times and places.

Ew, a TERF. Blocked and reported.

Edit: Problem solved, thanks!

I’m not reading that

I’m happy for you, though

or sorry that happened

I used to actually try to reason with people like you, with citations and ethical appeals – the whole nine yards.

But you know what I learned? You can’t logic someone out of a position they didn’t logic themselves into.

No matter what anyone says, you lot really want to use those skull calipers, and ain’t no data, logic, or ethics going to stop you.

And yes, it’s absolutely bigoted and sexist to imply that activities should be segregated by gender. That’s objectively a bigoted opinion. You just don’t want to admit it, because it would mean you choose to be a bad person.

Again, you won’t let something like an objective fact stop you, so far be it from me to waste my time with people like you.

Thanks for demonstrating, you sound just like the transphobes

I’d love something like this.

“Be the neckbeard you wish to see in this thread” I guess
