Boo hoo poor terrorists got blown up

Your name and comment just screams ‘’troll’’ but for the sake of it, I will respond and then block you since you got nothing good to comment anyway.

Your particular comment claims that all Palestinian, Iranian (and in general Arabian) lives are terrorists which is immensely wrong and a Zionistic view. Secondly, what do you consider a terrorist? Because if we look how Israel as a state was made and what atrocities they’ve done since 1948 up until 2024 (ongoing). We could very well consider Israel a terroristic state.

Now about the pagers that have been purposefully exploded by the Israeli state (government). It’s widely known that also innocent people (non-Hezbollah) have been wounded and murdered because of Israel’s terroristic action;

1. How Israel Built a Modern-Day Trojan Horse: Exploding Pagers From the article:

Mohammed Awada, 52, and his son were driving by one man whose pager exploded, he said. “My son went crazy and started to scream when he saw the man’s hand flying away from him,” he said.

By the end of the day, at least a dozen people were dead and more than 2,700 were wounded, many of them maimed. And the following day, 20 more people were killed and hundreds wounded when walkie-talkies in Lebanon also began mysteriously exploding. Some of the dead and wounded were Hezbollah members, but others were not; four of the dead were children.

2. Israel Blamed as Pager Explosions in Lebanon Kill 12 & Injure 2,800; Hezbollah Vows to Respond From the article:

Individual explosions occurred in supermarkets, cafes, houses and in other public places. Many of the injuries were sustained by civilians who were not carrying the pagers themselves, including at least two children who died from their wounds.

3. Second Wave of Blasts Hits Lebanon as Hand-Held Radios Explode From the article:

One of the explosions happened at an outdoor funeral in Beirut’s southern suburbs, where thousands had gathered to mourn two Hezbollah fighters, a paramedic and a 12-year-old boy killed in the pager blasts.

“I saw stuff today that you can only see in movies,” said Hussein Awada, 54, recounting how he watched as a man attempting to clear the road for ambulances in Beirut was gravely injured when his hand-held radio exploded.

“It took seconds — the thing just blew up in his hands,” Mr. Awada said. “Maybe tomorrow lighters will explode, too. If you want to light a cigarette, it will just explode in your hand.”

Fires engulfed at least 60 homes and shops, and dozens of cars and motorcycles, including in the Bekaa Valley and the southern suburbs of Beirut, said the Lebanese Civil Defense, an emergency rescue organization. Both areas are known as Hezbollah strongholds. Ambulances clogged the roads, and some hospitals in southern Lebanon were swamped with dozens of wounded patients, according to Lebanon’s state-run news agency.

If you want to kill one another, go ahead. But what Israel (government) has done is (once again) a terroristic action. They murdered innocent people along the way without remorse. The pagers went off in cars, shops and such.

I will block you now, MY_ANUS_IS_BLEEDING@lemm.ee, since you are definitely not the kind of human I would want to interact with on the internet.

They (Israeli government) have murdered thousands of innocent men, women and children already without any remorse. Destroyed the entirety of Gaza.

What makes you think the Israeli government has any heart, sympathy or feelings at all?

To many but the one that haunts me is “chaser”. A Korean movie about a serial killer who haunts prostitutes.

Why I remind it? Well, I watched it with my brother and when I got back from the toilet, he pretended to be some rando in a hoodie with a knife. Keep in mind, I was 14 and it was 11:30PM.

“I’m sure it exists, I just blocked it because I personally don’t like it” - everyone on lemmy

Lets agree to disagree? Because you cannot generalize the entirety of Lemmy about this topic. Lemmy certainly has NSFW content which means it is not everyone that blocks it. Not only that, there’s a phrase that goes like; ‘‘be the change’’ or something like that. If you want NSFW content to flourish, then start a community like that and post it. Perhaps people might join the community and post too.

Communities outside of tech and politics are very very small and slow. Especially anything NSFW. There’s a lot of prudish and ace people in the current crop of lemmy users.

I genuinely don’t understand it. If you want sexual content and it’s not on Lemmy, there are other specific sites for that, right? Like I mentioned before, Lemmy itself is already a tech-based platform which means tech-savvy people will be more on Lemmy and that means lots of tech-talk. Politics will be big on every platform because that’s just a important topic in life. Life basically evolved around politics.

Not wanting to see sexual content does not directly mean someone is prudish, it just literally means they don’t want to see that kind of content now. Therefore people block it. It’s not that deep (no pun intended).

For example for me, when I’m on Lemmy I want to see; Tech, Piracy, some politics, bit of anime debate (non-sexual) and some jokes. Nothing else. If I want anything else, there are other places to visit.

You can call them out when you see it. This helps the community, but makes your personal experience worse because you’re always fighting.

You see doing this will make your own experience worse. They want you to engage. Just block. The community will know by the particular person behavior how rude the person is.

Maybe like there is risk involved allowing NSFW content?

I think the risk of getting certain unwanted content posted on it. Though, I’m not sure how it all works with the content that’s posted and the owner of the instance. Though there are certainly NSFW communities (I, personally, just blocked them because that’s not my jam).

For me personally, yes. But it makes the overall site worse. Like a tragedy of the commons almost.

I don’t think there’s anything to do against that but correct me if I’m wrong. There are rules already to try counter that problem but there’s only so much a community can do against it. Every platform has this particular issue (some worse than the other). The best thing to ‘fight’ against it for yourself is blocking the particular people and communties.

Do you want to see more normies on Lemmy?

I honestly just don’t care what kind of people are on Lemmy as long as they’re friendly. Those who are not friendly are just immediately blocked by me, so I don’t see their comments (behavior).

To comment on your comment;

If someone asks a question about an issue with Windows, I don’t need to see nothing but Linux evangelism

I’m a Windows 11 user and never had this problem. Sure there might be comments saying they prefer Linux overall but that does not make the comment section less-friendly. Overall when it comes to tech questions, I have had great help (Windows, RSS-feeds, Piracy and even just Prime subtitle issues).

There’s a disproportionate number of truly toxic people on here who love preaching about their particular fixation, usually political, usually far leftist (compared to the world at large).

So toxicity is on every platform, Lemmy too. Block those who are toxic and your problem slowly but steadily solves by itself. I once read somewhere to most Tech-savvy people tend to be more Left-leaning, which is fine. If you don’t agree with their viewpoints, thats fine too. Just ignore it. The problem is the more right-leaning a community becomes, the much more toxic it becomes. It becomes less about tech, debates and much more about hating ‘the other’.

I, personally, are more centre-leaning and had checked more right-leaning communties and oh boy - It was pretty much 90% hates, dislikes and not so friendly things about ‘‘the other side’’, ‘‘the other people’’ and such than actual useful debates and comments.

All of those viewpoints are fine, but in moderation and without vitriol.

When I just joined, I read that Lemmy is mostly for tech-people. So it’s obvious that more Linux, piracy and overall tech users are here. It does align with how people have to join Lemmy and setup their subscribes for communties and all.

I often enjoy arguing politics. But not everything has to be a crusade.

So that’s the major issue with Politics. People are just hot-headed and very steadfast in their political opinion. It’s obvious there will be lot of arguing and crusade. It happens on every platform (Lemmy, Reddit, X, Insta and you name it).

• Not sure whether ‘‘steadfast’’ was the right word, English isn’t my native langauge and kind of tried to translate the native word into English.

And for the love of Christ, I want more NSFW topics. Dating, sex, porn.

I rather not. I blocked NSFW content, there are dating apps and such. Sex and porn are categorized within the NSFW content.
