According to the CIA world factbook (the only source I could find) the population spread in gaza is:

0-14 years: 38.8% (male 427,450/female 404,288) 15-64 years: 58.3% (male 627,235/female 620,903) 65 years and over: 2.9% (2024 est.) (male 31,655/female 30,112)

https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/gaza-strip/#people-and-society

Meaning about 30% of the population are males over 14.

So I guess Israel isn't disproportionately murdering women and children, theyre just killing everyone. So genocide.

So why did they win? (lemmy.sdf.org)

The majority of Americans who voted, at least in the swing states, have voted for the republicans. Why? Do the republican policies reflect popular opinion? Or is it that their vibes are more aligned with the public? Or maybe people are worse off now than they were 4 years ago and are hoping to turn back time? As a non-american I don't quite get it. People must think their lives will materially improve under the republicans, but why?

Remember when the Israeli public did riot and protest and stormed a police office, because they wanted the military to have the right to gang rape random people.

So there are police visible walking around sometimes,

Security checkpoints at the entrances to densely packed areas,

And one time a hotel had to phone the local police to ask if they could accept foreign guests.

The horror.

" Several of the researchers are associated with public security authorities in China, a fact that “voids any notion of free informed consent”, said Yves Moreau, a professor of engineering at the University of Leuven, in Belgium, who focuses on DNA analysis. Moreau first raised concerns about the papers with Hart, MGGM’s editor-in-chief, in March 2021.

One retracted paper studies the DNA of Tibetans in Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, using blood samples collected from 120 individuals. The article stated that “all individuals provided written informed consent” and that work was approved by the Fudan University ethics committee.

But the retraction notice published on Monday stated that an ethical review “uncovered inconsistencies between the consent documentation and the research reported; the documentation was not sufficiently detailed to resolve the concerns raised”. "

Weird. So they had written consent forms for the blood samples, but the forms weren't detailed enough(?), and anyway you can't trust anyone associated with the Chinese gvmt? Is that what they're saying?

This seems like weird reactionary virtue signalling.

"wage growth ... could lead to inflationary pressures becoming entrenched"

Never mind the report from the bank of England saying that the vast majority of the current inflation is due to increased corporate profits (price gouging bastards). No, if the struggling poor ask for their wages to keep up with prices then "inflationary pressures become entrenched".

Actually evil. These people have nothing but contempt for you. "You will suffer, and you will say thank you, or we will raise your rent again".

You don't really believe that, do you?

Lmao. Literally every comment chain descends into people bragging about commuting for hours daily. What is wrong with Californians.

Sorry hunny, but if you want to live in the community you were raised in then you'll need to stop smoking, murder your pets, abandon your family, and spend >12 hours a day working/commuting.

He got a gnarly throat disease a while back, that left him non verbal for a few years. Around that time he became withdrawn and astranged and he started spending all his time online. That's when he went off the deep end.

I think a lot of maga people are actually lonely.

So he's finally admitted it. I'm guessing there will be silence from the people that said Israel was definitely going to give Gaza back to Palestine after Hamas was gone.

This whole thing was bizarre. It felt like the interviewer was trying to trick him into admitting that everything was going to be OK and that he's just angry because of some aberrant mental deficiency.

This post is a disaster.

It says "An experiment in 2020s incentivizing the workplace as a dot-com-era adult playground where work also" three times.

I get that it's embedded or whatever, but reading this post was like having a stroke.
