Last time the names of “Civilian” killed were released and online people started looking them up and seeing if they were part of Hamas. It started becoming a problem because they’d say things like, “Strike X killed 8 innocent civilians” and then a few weeks later they’d get asked why they categorized such and such as a civilian because he was a mber of Quassam etc… So they stopped releasing names.
Unfortunately I don’t have the source for that easily reachable. It used to be a Google search away but all the keywords have been clogged by the most recent conflict.
I’ll have to do some more digging to see if I can find it.
I wonder if this will work out like last time.
unless there’s a fast way of inscribing names into stone, probably not.

oh, I gotcha. I misunderstood the implication.
Source?

Does lemmy have a remind me bot?
No idea but to be honest a remind me bot would be really great as a feature. I just might make one if there isn’t one already.
