One of the federal [emphasis mine] charges against Mangione, murder through use of a firearm, makes him eligible for the death penalty if convicted.

Mangione has pleaded not guilty to state charges.

The destruction of Gaza would have resulted in new Hamas recruits several times the number of this little protest.

His approval ratings were low and falling well before the start of this onslaught. He is using this "war" as a way to stay in power for longer and to not face the various criminal charges against him.

Wanting a ceasefire does not mean they want a free Palestine.

Thanks for clearing that up haha. It's hard not to be a pessimist on the internet.

Oh I understood that, but thanks for making it explicit. Very few larger media outlets have covered Palestine fairly unfortunately.

I didn't get the impression that the other commenter was laughing about BBC's use of the term.

I assumed they were doubting the health ministry's reliability/accuracy, but maybe I've just become jaded after dealing with so many Zionazis online.

Your comment did not make clear what you found funny, but having come across so many similar comments before I assumed it was that the data was not reliable due to it being the "Hamas-run health ministry".

If you found the continued use of that term by the BBC funny, then my previous comment is irrelevant.

Literally the first paragraph:

The UN's Human Rights Office has condemned the high number of civilians killed in the war in Gaza, saying its analysis shows close to 70% of verified victims over a six-month period were women and children.

Also see the only other comment when you posted this: https://lemmy.world/comment/15951331

Tbf (and you seem to already be aware of this) that's not really an issue with Linux. Lots of software devs don't care about supporting Linux sadly.

[–] markko@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah I did see that after looking into it. It's definitely on my growing list of distros to check out now, so thanks for putting it on my radar.

I guess that info not having been explained earlier maybe? I'd never even heard of Bazzite, and I've recently been looking up what new distro options are out there.
