childrenlittle hamasWhat is wrong with you? Are you aspd? Please seek* help
Dude this is lemmy. Half of us are fucking tankies. Of course I’m being sarcastic
A lot of people came here after the r***** debacle, so Poe’s law applies.
What debacle? Serious question.
Presumably the reddit API price hike.

It’s autocorrect. I’ll fix it.

I do read. It doesn’t help if there’s a lag or autocorrect doesn’t correct it immediately, or whatever the issue is. something. I never use text to speech, and I’ve complained plenty about it.

I think (hope) they were being sarcastic
I hope so.
Statistically that means more adult were killed compared to the general demographic distribution of Gaza. Around 56% of people in Gaza are younger than 18.
Age structure (2018 estimate) from wiki:
- 0–14 years: 44.1%
- 15–24 years: 21.3%
- 25–54 years: 28.5%
- 55–64 years: 3.5%
- 65 years and over: 2.6%

I would hope that the bar is higher than a statistically representative random sample of the entire population
That’s from 2018, a lot has happened since then. One would expect most families are trying to keep their children and babies safe, so if Israel were making any effort to avoid the children it shouldn’t be hard to do so. Targeting a food distribution center shows they’re not. Also shows cowardice, rather than attack someplace where they shoot back.
What a strange factoid to choose to highlight.
I wonder if this “war” hasn’t proportionately killed more children than any in history.
Modern history, possibly. In terms of casualties it resembles a genocide more than it resembles a war.
Yup, hence the scare quotes.
History is brutal, killing kids was just normal behavior for a lot of thy time - babies dashed on rocks was a common motif. If you’re trying to say it’s thy most brutal conflict in history for kids you’re being absurd, it’s not even the most brutal ongoing conflict when you look at clashes between child soldiers.
I do wonder what the average age someone is recruited into hamas is
Your brain on Hollywood.
- Ancient people weren’t any less empathetic than modern people.
- Ancient people didn’t have mortars, rockets and bombs and assault rifles.
- There were fewer people invoked in ancient conflicts.

According to the source that says 44% of those killed are children, children make up 47% of Gaza. https://english.wafa.ps/Pages/Details/143002
Also, if it needs to be said, though I hope it doesn’t, children make up 0% of valid targets.
0% of the 14467 murdered children were murdered in complaisance with the international law governing war.
0% of the 774 wounded but still living children were wounded in complaisance with the international law governing war.
0% of the 1085 children taken as hostages were victimised in complaisance with the international law governing war.In my dialect, that’s 56% children.
Hey, wait a sec. That’s the same percentage of the entire Gazan population that are children. Israel would have to be just indiscriminately killing everybody if that were true!
Only 7 of them are children?!
