    OP do you ever take a break? You’ve posted 40 posts on here within the last 24 hours alone, predominantly if not entirely pro-Israel at a quick glance. Are you an actual programmed bot or just generally obsessed?

    Edit: 41 posts now. You just posted yet another article in the time it took me to write this comment.

      It’s not even good propaganda, it should be obvious to any functional human that criminals hiding behind pediatric hospitals is not a good excuse to bomb pediatric hospitals.

      He also posted 900 comments and 70 articles in less than 3 months. Definitely pro-Israeli bot. How can we report this bot/person to get a permanent ban?

        900 comments and 70 posts in 3 months isn’t impossible for a motivated person. Not sure OP is, of course, bug numbers alone are not evidence enough. Do they engage with commenters on their posts?

          Yes, not impossible but if all your online activity on Lemmy is in this conflict becomes a bit suspicious if you are genuine or just a bot and don’t forget that we already live in the era of AI, where you can easily create a bot that can generate favorable opinions for your cause tilting the public opinion. So I would not be surprised at all if that’s the case too.

        LOL…

        Let’s all wave to @TokenBoomer with 310 posts and more than 3500 comments in the span of about 3 months.

        Shall we all report him too, because he is a bot?

          Hey, I’m famous mah!

          Edit: I post to create engagement and content. Because I think decentralized platforms like this are a valuable resource that should be nurtured and cherished. Also, I’m old and don’t get out much. I don’t want anyone banned. It’s an opportunity to educate readers on this conflict and give context and history to the situation.

      Thank you for this comment, I immediately blocked the user.

      I’m all fine for news regards both sides but definitely do not want propaganda.

      I, personally, appreciate this new aspect, as reading Lemmy in last three weeks became a hard pro-Hamas delusional left-fest.

        People posting articles from israeli sources aren’t the problem. It’s the botlike behavior from OP. I actually counted the posts he posted in the last 24 hours after coming across a bunch of his low-effort posts multiple times in a row. It’s probably added up to closer to 50 posts at this point.

        I’m sure you’d realize what the problem was if someone made a pro-Palestine bot and started spamming the sub with a bunch of articles as well. It’s annoying when one account does it. It becomes impossible to deal with when more accounts start doing it.

          Half the articles aren’t even current. Some of them are over a month old. It’s just burying the actual good posts under a pile of old shit.

        I’m not pro-Hamas and I haven’t met anyone that is, not that they don’t exist. Pro-Palestine is not Pro-Hamas.

      Are you referring the hospital that Hamas blew up, then blamed Israel for? After which everyone just took Hamas’ word for it and also blamed Israel.
