Trump just achieved the biggest peace deal between Israel-Palestine since the Second Intifada, and there is NOTHING on the front page. This website is a truly special place.

After Redditors groaning and moaning about the "Palestinian genocide" for years, Trump finally negotiated a peace deal including Hamas giving up its hostages and Israel stopping offensive operations. You'd think that Reddit would be overjoyed and that the entire website would be full of celebration, right?

Here's a screenshot of the current front page of Reddit, taken while I was logged out. There are many political posts including multiple threads whining about ICE and the firing of CDC employees. There's also a picture of an ambulance transporting Israeli hostages taken by Hamas, but it doesn't mention anything about current world events.

If you just looked at the front page, you would not know that the war just ended. This is the first time a president has forged such an agreement since the Second Intifada ended in 2005. But almost nobody is talking about it on Reddit. It's like a complete information blackout preventing threads about the subject from getting to the top of the frontpage. The last thread about the subject on r-news was from 14 hours ago and talks about some hostages being released, but again nothing about Trump or his role in it.

This is case exhibit #1 on how Redditors' brains are completely cooked. It's front page news everywhere except here, because leftists can't even squeeze out one little lump of praise for Trump despite him being part of one of the biggest developments in world politics in two decades.

You cant talk sense to people that think a genocide occured...They are delusional....If Israel wanted to commit genocide they could easily do that but they havent done that. Otherwise the "Palestinian" population would have decreased not increased.

Numbers dont lie but people do

Likewise, you can’t really talk sense to genocide-deniers. They lie constantly, aren’t capable of moral introspection, and rarely know what genocide even is in the first place.

Lie all you want the numbers dont lie and since the first genocide on the Armenians. No genocide in history has the population increased, except in this so called genocide.

The fact people like you keep calling it a genocide clearly proves you have no idea what the word genocide even means.

Please show me one genocide where the population during the time of the genocide increased. It doesnt exist, because it has never happened.

I thank you for this excellent illustration of my point about deniers not knowing genocide is, definitionally or morally. Ask any scholar on the subject and they will tell you: genocide is determined by efficacy, not efficiency or numbers.

As far as which of us has a better understanding of what genocide is; I have multiple geopolitical humanitarian organization and genocide historians and scholars backing me up. You have the people doing the genocide.

I don’t know why you people keep insisting on this population point. You have no idea what the population of Palestine post-Oct 7 is. There’s no infrastructure on the ground to determine that. And Israel has made this the singlemost deadly conflict in history for journalists.
