As a foreign famous activist she probably has a "good" treatment for a detainee. Imagine what the Gazan child hostages go through in Israeli prisons (spoiler: reported electrical shock torture and sexual crimes)
Do you have any evidence to support that or are you just using conjecture? I don't have a dog in the fight, but you're literally making shit up out of thin air. Given how persistent bed bugs are I would imagine they are a significant problem in any prison in the world. Keeping bed bugs out is probably like trying to keep a cold/flu/covid out of any concentrated living facility (prison, nursing home, welfare home, or homeless shelter).
If hotels struggle to prevent bed bugs then you can be assured that prisons will too. If you're gonna peacefully protest with the knowledge that you will be detained then you should also know that you're gonna deal with jail/prison conditions which include bed bugs.
You don't believe in privilege? Do you really think the people the news don't name get the same treatment?
Can't you see that that is a very different argument? Just because Greta has bed bugs in her cell doesn't prove that other prisoners have worse conditions. The OP said:
As a foreign famous activist she probably has a “good” treatment for a detainee. Imagine what the Gazan child hostages go through in Israeli prisons (spoiler: reported electrical shock torture and sexual crimes)
So the OP has setup a binary situation where Greta is getting bed bugs while Gazan's are getting electrical shock torture and sexual crimes. I asked if the OP has any evidence to that because they created a false equivalency. Just because one prisoner has bed bugs doesn't mean everyone else is getting electro shocked and raped.
So you are asking: what are the odds of the genocidal regime known for human rights violations violating the rights of people without the protection of the public eye?
Surely they are more comfortable than Greta. That is the logical conclusion. /s
No, you're making a lot of unsubstantiated statements. Am I willing to believe that Greta is being treated differently than Gazan prisoners? Yeah, I can believe that. I could also believe that Greta is being treated similarly to how anyone without Hamas affiliations would be treated. What I don't believe is that just because Greta has bed bugs in her cell Gazans are getting raped and electro tortured. Like I said, I don't have a dog in the fight, but just because Greta is being treated like a prisoner doesn't mean she's being treated differently than other prisoners. Furthermore, having bed bugs doesn't mean shit when bed bugs are a problem in every prison. Having bed bugs doesn't mean other people are getting raped and electro shock tortured unless you have some evidence of that, which is the evidence I asked for.
The rogue terrorist state of Israel commited piracy.
She's got balls. Straight dude here, love her.
I appreciate your message but you can say that she has guts, has courage, etc. No need to compare women to men when courage is something anyone can have.
why did you need to announce you are a straight dude? 🤣
This is Lemmy, just assuming straight white cis dude is much less likely than the old place.
straight dudes do be lovin their balls.
I read it as saying she is a "straight up dude". Was that not the intention?
No. I love her.
Do they purposely use the worst photos of her?
You can usually tell at a glance if an article will be critical or supportive of a certain person, based on the photo they choose to go alongside the headline.
General rule of thumb, if you want someone to look composed, use a photo with their mouth closed. If you want them to look dumb, choose a photo with their mouth open mid-speech. It’s not a universal thing, but still images of people mid-word don’t tend to be flattering.
If they are pro-Greta why would they use a really good picture here? They want to show how bad her incarceration is.
Man, I wish my worst photo looked that good.
I was about to say. For someone detained in a prison abroad she looks freaking glowing in the photo lol
Yes. There are plenty of good photos of her.
