"#Israel is staging a massive offensive across four major refugee camps in the north of the #WestBank. The raids, at their height, pushed 40,000 people from their homes. Many are now sheltering with relatives in neighboring villages, others racking up debt renting apartments while they wait to return.

#Israeli officials, meanwhile, have said those displaced will not be allowed to go back for at least a year."

      I’m assuming users on .ml instances, even though it doesn’t make the slightest bit of sense.

        Leaving the fact that I still haven’t had anyone explain what “ML” actually means aside…

        Fake communists

        lol what?

        who pushed “genocide Joe” and not-voting during the 2024 election contribution to low democratic voter turn out, giving Trump the win

        When you commit a genocide, you forfeit the right to complain if people refuse to vote for you. Joe Biden and the Democrats gave Trump the win because they continued slaughtering tens of thousands of innocent women and children in Gaza. And people are starting to realize that Democrat vs. Republican is just right-wing zionist infighting.

          ML = Marxism-Leninism

          An ideology developed by Joseph Stalin to justify Russian Imperial ambition.

          AKA, the people who aided the Nazis in their invasion of Poland.

        Is this some sort of established lemmy jargon? Like calling people “NPCs” or “normies”? 🤨

          It’s open-source software development jargon.

          Mainline is the location where the original software has its source code. A fork is when someone decides they want to modify said software their own way and so they make a copy.
