The arrest video also seems a bit funny with the perpetrator looking towards the camera and saying "Free Palestine" and someone conveniently giving him a keffiyeh upon being arrested.
I wouldn't find it hard to believe that this is a false flag attack given Israel has no qualms about harming its own citizens or their allies for the greater good. It's been so many times and here are a few
- USS liberty - kill American navy, blame Arabs
- Hannibal Doctrine - Kill Israeli hostages, blame Hamas
- Lavon Affair - Kill British and American civilians, blame Arabs
- King David Hotel Bombing - Kill British, blame Arabs
- London Embassy - Kill Israelis, blame Arabs
- Sydney Synagogue bombings - Kill Israelis, cry antisemitism
- Tel Aviv bus bombing - Kill Israelis, blame Hamas
- Beruit bombing - withold information to let Americans get killed
etc, etc.
Never heard of any of this before. Where do you find this information?

Who?
Three Palestinian college students shot in Vermont.

It is the same poster who often posts about children being short and why adults have to bend down to hug them. I already removed that same thread once this morning but the poster must have reposted. Just another inmate in the DCUM insane asylum.

The Diet & Exercise Forum has become completely overwhelmed by discussion of obesity drugs. Given that obesity is a medical condition and these GLP-1 / semaglutides are drugs meant to treat that condition, I think those posts belong in the Health & Medicine Forum. That way the Diet & Exercise part of the site can focus on workouts and traditional weight loss.
I welcome any thoughts or feedback both from you and the rest of the community on this proposal. Thanks for all you do!
My position has generally been that posters can choose to post in either the Diet or the Health forums and I continue to have that view.
I do agree, however, that there are too many GLP-1 threads. I have just locked a few of them. I have some observations about how to improve things. In my experience, the threads normally start with a reasonable question and elicit some reasonable responses. However, there will almost certainly be a response attacking the original poster for using drugs, accusing them of being lazy, and calling them fat. As a result, the original poster ends up being insulted both for being overweight and for trying to do something about it. Additionally, there will be posters complaining that another thread was started and posts questioning the motives of the original poster. Soon the thread will be bogged down in unhelpful posts and responses to those posts. As such, other posters are incentivized to start new threads rather than join a dumpster fire.
Therefore, if posters would report the unhelpful posts, I could eliminate them and, if necessary, block the posters. That will help threads stay on-topic and remain helpful. There will likely be less of a need to create new threads in that case. Moreover, if posters do create new threads, I can in good conscience, refer them to an earlier thread.

You must have studied Section 230 at Trump University.
Good news. My business model is not your concern.
Things might make more sense to you if you realize that I don't primarily view this as a business. If simply making money were my main concern, I would do a lot of things differently.
Also if you want to know why Democrats lost, consider that there is a brain dead guy in the White House who thinks that "groceries" is an old fashioned word that nobody other than he understands, who is openly accepting bribes, and who has commissioned his own Gestapo to grab people and ship them to foreign gulags without due process. In the face of that, some "informed people" want to talk about Biden.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep an eye out for it.
