YOU CAN’T HATE THE MSM ENOUGH: Earlier today, the MSM repeated Hamas propaganda as fact, not bothering to note that “local health officials” in Gaz are Hamas. Here is CNN, just for example.

Besides repeating the casualty figures as presumptively accurate despite the source, CNN did not mention that the strike was at 5 AM, in the summer, on a Hamas HQ. And as happens so often, Hamas couldn’t keep the lie going, reducing the casualty count from over 90 to 40 within hours, and who knows if that is also exaggerated:

Meanwhile, Israel identified by name twenty wanted Hamas terrorists who were killed in the bombing.

UPDATE: Here’s a picture Palestinian sources are circulating purporting to show the victims of Israel’s strike. The women, children, and elderly victims the media was reporting based on “eyewitnesses” are conspicuous by their absence.

JEWISH LIVES MATTER?: A maniac shouting “Free Palestine” tried to stab a Hasidic Jew in Brooklyn to death early Saturday morning. Crickets from the MSM.

SHE’S NEVER HAD AN ORIGINAL IDEA IN HER LIFE, SO WHY CHANGE NOW?

IMPORTANT HEALTH NEWS: Women who regularly have sex are likely to live longer, according to a nationally representative study in the United States. “Even when accounting for education, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, female participants who claimed to have sex less than 52 times in a year were three times more likely to die from any cause over the five-year study period.”

WELL SAID:

DISPATCHES FROM AIRSTRIP ONE: The UK descends into dystopian levels of censorship.

“Think before you post.”

That’s the chilling message that was just posted from social media accounts affiliated with the United Kingdom’s government. Amid the riots and civil unrest in the streets of Britain that were initially sparked by anti-immigration protesters, the posts warned citizens not directly involved in the uprisings that they too could face arrest even just for their speech.

“Content that incites violence or hatred isn’t just harmful — it can be illegal,” the Crown Prosecution Service tweeted. “The CPS takes online violence seriously and will prosecute when the legal test is met. Remind those close to you to share responsibly or face the consequences.”

These aren’t just idle threats, either.

Stephen Parkinson, the director of public prosecutions of England and Wales, warned that there are “dedicated police officers” tasked with “scouring social media” to “follow up with identification [and] arrests” when people “publish or distribute material which is insulting or abusive which is intended to or likely to start racial hatred.”

This censorious effort is coming from the top levels of government. In an interview with Sky News, Prime Minister Keir Starmer said social media is “not a law-free zone” and that he wanted to issue “a reminder to everyone that whether you’re directly involved or whether you’re remotely involved, you’re culpable, and you will be put before the courts if you’ve broken the law.”

The arrests have already begun.

George Orwell didn’t intend for 1984 to be a how-to guide.
