Gaza is becoming a "graveyard for children", U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Monday, amplifying demands for a ceasefire in the enclave, where Palestinian health authorities said the death toll from Israeli strikes had exceeded 10,000.
88 people employed by the Relief and Works Agency for in the Near Easttasked with providing essential services for have been killed since Oct. 7, marking the highest number of United Nations fatalities ever recorded in a single conflict.
The deaths of the workers are among the more than 10,000 people killed in including more than 4,100 children, according to the Gaza Ministry.
Just finished watching Johnny Harris video on how Facebook facilitated the genocide of the Rohingya muslim minority, it's a really sad and heavy video, it talks about how Facebook's reckless moderation in the country of Myanmar complicated historical ethical conflicts that eventually led to the genocide of the Muslim minority.
It really strikes me that something we generally associate with the sharing of funny memes, with an algorithm trained to engage users so that the company can benefit from more advertising revenue, can be weaponised to share misinformation and hate, ultimately leading to the escalation of conflict to the extent that it has, If you don't feel sickened by what you've read so far, I'd recommend watching the video, it's very well documented and does a good job of breaking down an otherwise complex situation into understandable chunks.
We can really see that they haven't changed their moderation and harmful practices from that time to now, as there are several news reports about how they falsely report anyone who shows support for the Palestinian people as a terrorist on multiple platforms that they control, as well as showing several times that their generative AI is often biased against Palestinians, I'll have some links to those at the end of the post so you can judge their veracity for yourself.
This is just one example of how traditional social media can be damaging and extremely dangerous, of course there are countless examples of this happening in smaller countries where a western giant sweeps in, sets itself up as the standard way of communicating and ignores when violent misinformation gets out of hand, we actually lose as a society because we allow these huge corporations to control every bit of our lives, That's why being here is so important, because by participating in decentralised social media we can send a message, a message that says we don't want this to happen again, we don't want any more people to suffer because some CEO was too busy flying his personal jet to care about other people's lives, and we're not going to accept it anymore.
I will also be attaching donation links for the Rohingya refugee camps at the end, so if you can, please donate to them so that we can help ease the burden that has been placed on these poor people.
