“The responsibility & the lack of concern that #Hamas has for the health & welfare of its own people does not free #Israel from having responsibility for the destruction that it has caused,” Rabbi Blau said. “It is not a zero-sum game.”

The #Jewish community is far from a monolith, & support for the tactics & mission of Israel’s war in #Gaza has varied. But until recently, many mainstream Jewish organizations & leaders had defended Israel’s war against Hamas, if with growing unease.

The deteriorating conditions in #Gaza & the denial of #aid to #Palestinian #civilians is prompting some who consider themselves ardent supporters of #Israel to publicly object to the #FarRight government’s stewardship of the #war, arguing that it crosses a #religious & #moral line. The Torah & #Jewish tradition command Jews to feed the poor & hungry, respect the sanctity of life & show mercy & compassion.

I really love the catch-up feature on @phanpy. When I don't have time to scroll through my timeline on the Fediverse, I can simply see the most shared, liked, and commented-on posts from the networks I decided to follow. I know I'll still miss some good posts, but that's how I discover good ones I missed.

We can select the time range we want to catch up on. 1/2

I don't understand the strict resistance to ethical algorithms like this one. I know big tech social media platforms cause a lot of harm with their hate speech and far-right-wing-based algorithms. But we can have good algorithms, too.

Someday, I am willing to adapt the code from catch-up just to see what my network has decided is worth sharing. That way, I won't need to wait and load @phanpy page every time. 2/2
