“Gaza’s total population ‘fell by about 254,000 people, a 10.6% decline compared with pre-conflict estimates’, the research notes.”
Cue a Zionist in my mentions asking “but can you really call it a genocide if almost
90% of them are still alive?”
If you know people on social.cologne who aren’t Zionists/genocide supporters please let them know that they cannot see posts by me and others who oppose Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people as our instances and accounts are blocked by their Zionist/pro-genocide server.
I can only assume Zionist/pro-genocide servers will not be allowed according to mastodon.social’s new server covenant and suggested as safe spaces to newcomers to the fediverse (including Palestinians suffering through genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid) but it would be good to have official confirmation of this.
It’s time for people (and mastodon servers) to be unapologetically unambiguous about which side of history they stand on.

Specifically, it is essential that we know whether the Mastodon server covenant (https://joinmastodon.org/covenant) adopts the IHRA’s Working Definition of Antisemitism (https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/working-definition-antisemitism) – which conflates antisemitism with criticism of Israel – or the Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (https://jerusalemdeclaration.org) – which does not. (Or some other declaration that I’m not myself aware of or had discussed with the mastodon.social team.)

“Throughout our trip to Germany, most of the conversations I had with other survivors and their families reliably returned to fears and intergenerational traumas in the context of the Trump presidency; the rise of nationalism, authoritarianism and uncertainty in the U.S. and around the world. But although this was at the height of devastating reports of famine and genocide emerging from Gaza, everyone in our group, especially the Jews, seemed to make a concerted effort to avoid mention of Palestine.”

I'm thinking back to 2021 when I was writing my thesis in university and had to read academic research papers every day.
The authors (all Israeli) of the deep learning papers I had to read in 2021, shared this in June 2024.

for 27 months they called us liars, they called us #Hamas supporters, they called us antisemites, they called us terrorists and other things because we shared the horrifying numbers of deaths in #Gaza.
Quietly, while the world is busy with #Epstein, #Greenland, War on #Iran and other distractions, they accepted the reports of the casualties of the Israeli #genocide in Gaza.
But, the western media don't seem to care much about it.

70,000 dead Palestinians, maybe much more. This isn't just a number. It represents grandparents, parents, children, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and loved ones. Each with a name and a face and a story. Murdered by the genocidal Israeli regime and backed by many countries, including the UK.
The murder continues. There should be war crimes trials.
