    I’m at a crossroads. I want to upvote for the message, but the self-censorship text scribbles can fuck right off.

      Especially on a platform like lemmy. Stop using platforms that you think require stupid stuff like that. Also fuck the IDF.

    You’ll see them respond two ways. Either they will argue a child can pull a trigger the same as an adult or that a child today is a soldier tomorrow. Ultimately they see them like any perpetrator of any genocide sees their victim, as a disease. Mental separation is really the only way people can cause harm to one another. We don’t kill father’s with children in war, we kill the enemy. The language around every genocide essentially revolves around the other group being a disease. They aren’t men, women, and children, they are rats or cockroaches or something to that effect.

    Predator would have to murder them, their mother, their relatives, and then take photos in the mother’s lingerie to be the kind of asshole we’ve seen posted online.

      They probably have a machine that trawls the internet for mentions of itself, then extracts the IP of whoever posted them, builds a profile on their entire web activity, links it to all the personally identifiable information that can be found on them online, then hacks into their devices and starts recording them through their own camera, mic, wifi, etc., and possibly mails them a brand new pager with custom modifications.

      So yeah, can’t really blame the OOP for censoring the acronym…

          Scanning every jpeg on the internet with OCR would require far more compute than simply doing a regex for plaintext.

          Also that white line can really fuck with most lightweight OCRs

            Yeah but we are following their theory so i guess we just ignore that for now (I know it’s stupid and would take so much processing power)

              I mean maybe they do have enough compute to run OCR with character-correction on every image format file on the internet. If we’re just speculating then we might as well speculate about that.

              But like, seatbelts don’t prevent every death. We still wear them though, because the reduction of risk is still significant.

              The fact is, catching an acronym appearing in images requires a much larger funnel than catching it in plaintext. And catching it with a white line through it on those images requires a larger funnel than without.

              It reduces the attack surface. Maybe there’s still an attack surface, but if it’s much smaller then it’s still worth it.

                You may aswell just censor it better, as said, Google’s OCR can easly detect it (i just tested lmao) it wouldn’t be hard at all for them to get the OCR text and scan for acronyms if they have enough resources

                  Yeah but the point is that trawling the entire internet and scanning every single image with OCR would take way more compute than just scanning particular images on demand which is what happens when you test it on google.

          My same response to the other comments applies here too:

          Also that white line can really fuck with most lightweight OCRs

    Predators are warriors. The IDF and current Israeli administration is pretty fundamentally driven by fear.

        It’s fear. I don’t think they’re lying about why they are doing this, as absurd as it seems. They (being the administration, just to be clear) believe that they must wipe out Islam (and I guess Christianity) to prevent being genocided themselves. It’s a weird outcome of the Nazi genocide, that the attitude in Israel is basically “it wouldn’t have happened if I were there”, but the corollary to that is “because I’d do it to everyone else”.

        That’s not how we live. I can’t plan to kill my neighbour because I’m reasoning that they’re planning to kill me (because I’m planning to kill them, after all). That’s insane.

        Btw, that’s also the Nazi train of thought. That’s what “the great replacement” theory is about, that Jews are planning to dilute the white race or whatever, and the only solution is genocide. It’s a concocted fear.

          Whilst fear seems to be used to induce hate in many (just listen to the fables of “we need to protect ourselves” coming from the politicians there), I’m pretty sure others just directly hate without the need to be led there through fear.

        Not sure why people are downvoting this explaination. OP saw a thing online they wanted to share. So they shared it as they found it. If someone is so upset that they need to downvote, go find the creator of the image, who censored it, and go downvote them instead.

    Well not surprised IDF thinks children pose a threat. You have to be a special type of coward to kill children.

    Can’t tell from the censor—does it say IDF or US police officer when dealing black children?
