seed signer?

Now downzapped 4801 sats

Now downzapped 1701 sats.

I could see a token downzap - like a couple sats.
I could see downzaps AFTER you post a comment with your viewpoint, maybe.
But the downzaps just to push something off the front page, to censor things - that sucks.

Love this story!

I don't know who would downzap it - it got downzapped 222 sats.

Does someone think it's AI generated?

Or is this part of the general obfuscation of downzaps, so that the patterns are harder to see?

Yeah, this one isn't the first.

You can track downzaps via this link - can switch to weekly, monthly, or custom date ranges.

There's definitely a lot of noise as well, in the downzaps. But for sure the anti-war/anti-Zionist posts get downzapped a ton (if they start getting traction) and it seems like I'm starting to see a pattern with the self-custody oriented posts as well.

Interesting. This post was downzapped 1000 sats just now.

I'm thinking it's because some interesting topics came up, and somebody wanted it off the front page.

We don't target civilians.

Israel DOES target civilians. In particular children.

Doctors in Gaza observed a disturbing pattern: children with a single gunshot wound to the head or chest, a sign that they had been deliberately targeted. This emerges from research by de Volkskrant, which spoke with the doctors who are among the last international eyewitnesses.

The above report won the European press prize in 2025.

This pictures from the home on Zillow is interesting:

Before they had separate closets, for clothing that needed to be hung up there were usually just had some hooks on the wall.

This is a little bit fancier, in that there was a curtain covering the hooks.

A boyfriend/girlfriend that you have to speak to in the target language is the absolute best.

After that - serious, intense watching of a TV series (a friend of mine used "The Big Bang Theory"), including pausing it to practice pronounciation, etc. I know a number of people who've learned that way.

Also I have another friend who spoke English pretty well, who learned it by obsessively playing an online shooter game, in which you spoke into your headset, and everything was in English. Truly remarkable how fast it went.

Hmm. New account, this is your first post. How did you find out about Stacker.news?

Charlie Kirk had visited Israel many times before he was assassinated.

Just after the Oct. 7th attack on Israel, he expressed serious doubt about the whole thing, thought it might be a setup, a false flag.

He just couldn't wrap his mind around what he'd seen at the border ("you can't go 10 ft without running into a 20 year old soldier with a submachine gun") and the fact that something like 7 hours elapsed, before a response by the Israeli army happened.

What do you think about that?

FYI - there were video clips of this conversation all over the internet, just after Charlie Kirks assassination. Now it looks like many of them have been taken down. But I'll try to find one that's available. Meanwhile, here's a transcript from a Newsweek article

Yes, maybe to "anyone who's been following this".

But you might be shocked at what a lot of Boomer opinion is on this topic.

Especially those for whom Prager U and The Daily Wire (Ben Shapiro) have been a refuge during this time of political chaos, and attacks from leftists.

I'd say a majority of this crowd are 100% true believers that Israel is our greatest ally.

From the book:
The emigrant and sportsman in Canada. Some experiences of an old country settler.
By John Rowan, 1876

On still summer nights, when the tide suits, lobster-spearing parties are the fashion among the Halifax people. A birch-bark torch, carried in the bow of the boat, enables the spearer to see the lobsters crawling about among the seaweed at the bottom. In those bays, where lobsters are really plentiful, I have seen two hundred taken in one tide by a couple of little boys, wading about among the rocks, armed with cod-hooks tied on to sticks.
On one occasion, after a heavy gale in New Brunswick, which threw up tons of lobsters on the beach, I saw several acres of potato ground manured with them. To give some idea of the little value put upon lobsters by the country people, I may mention that on some parts of the coast they boil them for their pigs, but are ashamed to be seen eating lobsters themselves. Lobster shells about a house are looked upon as signs of poverty and degradation.

Who?
Why?

One of the ladies is pointing RIGHT at the photographer. She must have not gotten the memo...

It's neat to watch old videos from before WWI era.

They just absolutely stare at the movie camera the whole time.
