200 was an arbitrary number

It was not of any significance to the point I was trying to make

The IDF will bomb a hospital and kill 200 people

NYT article will say something like "200 Dead after bombs drop near a place, according to the Hamas-run health ministry."

They phrase everything so carefully.
Like the bombs were some sort of natural disaster and not an intentional military strike on civilians.

They always append "Hamas run health ministry", to imply the information can't be reliable, because it's from a US-designated terrorist organisation

The Israeli media will say "We killed 300 Palestinians"

But have you considered the fediverse?

Also, we're neglecting to mention the fediverse as well as the fediverse

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.
