A reddit thread supposedly debunking the IDF's Oct 7 "mass Hannibal" friendly fire response is now a top google result if you search "oct 7 mass hannibal".
old. reddit. com/r/IsraelPalestine/ comments/1fcmh39/ there_was_no_mass_hannibal_on_october_7th/
claims include:
- (in comments) that Israeli air force colonel Nof Erez, who described Oct 7 as a "mass hannibal," was fired in July 2023 and did not take part in fighting on Oct 7
- So far I haven't found any evidence for this but I haven't scoured the internet
- that most Israeli deaths occurred deeper in Israeli territory, while most Hannibal deaths are implied to have been on the border
- They have a map of the supposed locations of deaths. The github does not give a paper trail for the data, as far as I can tell
- I'm also not convinced that the "mass Hannibal" account emphatically puts deaths elsewhere
there are other claims but I'll post this edit now, I'm still reading
I don't remember this many news stories about bigotry and poor sportsmanship in past olympics, is it just me?

Help us send these children to live in a juvenile prison away from anyone who cares about them or their future.
Won't someone think of Wells Fargo
the original meme was about communist banter being unhinged and socially unacceptable.
I think it resonates with us because it's relatable, we've all been the person holding their tongue at a family gathering. I also think it resonates as a reaction to the lopsided "colonizer deaths are a tragedy while colonized deaths are a footnote" tone-policing in western media (see Israel discourse). Also, a politics of violent revolution makes flippant humor inevitable, back in '73 people were joking about "spain's first astronaut" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Carrero_Blanco
Plagiarism is an understatement. Every single word was stolen without credit, usually from small-time queer authors languishing in obscurity.

let's not start another war based on hearsay and then find out it was all bullshit years later
“Not wanting to bomb children is, ironically, a childish position. What are your coordinates btw?”
it’s often pointed out that a lot of these guys have npd, which, yeah I buy that, but if npd was the driving factor this would be happening everywhere on earth, or at least everywhere with a lot of guns. What America also has is the diseased atmosphere of a crumbling, self-aggrandizing racist superpower where various segments of society are scapegoated for it crumbling, and you don’t get that in the news or in Psychology Today.
no one ever seems to stop and think, "I don't actually know that much about socialism, or socialist countries, or socialist history."

To add onto that, Wikipedia has a surprisingly good page about Oct 7 Israeli friendly fire, which includes a paragraph on Yasmine Porat
