OK, fine, but do you think the current approach will work? And by "work", I mean bring about lasting peace.

Then how should they make peace with Hamas?

It's an experiment I've been trying for about two weeks, now.
I am using whitespace to make written English easier to read.
I put one sentence per line.
Long sentences are broken into multiple lines
    according to natural breaks in the sentences.
(I try to aim for an 80 column width.)
Indentation is used to signal the continuation of a sentence.
Basically, I am treating English like a programmer would treat code.
As an interesting and unexpected corollary,
    the English is much easier to edit, and
    diffs are way cleaner.
(I'm editing this in an external dedicated text editor.)

Do you know of another way to preserve white space?

[–] etuomaala@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago (22 children)
Because
    it
        preserves
            whitespace.

Yeeeeah, that's a good point, kind of.
But even people serving life sentences can
    still communicate with the outside world from prison.

If Путин wants people to listen to him, he shouldn't lie so often. I hard-ignore all articles beginning with the words "Путин says".

Do you think that the Israeli government's current approach is reasonable and will work?

The people in charge of both sides are evil.
Picking sides in this fight is like
    picking sides in fucking Game of Thrones.

Perma-bans are fucking crazy.
The correct way to think about them is as a death sentence.
Hatred speech in real life:
    what, like 2 years in prison?
    IDK actually...
Hatred speech on reddit:
    death penalty.

I still feel a strong pull towards r/worldnews.
c/world@lemmy.world is juuuust not quite as good,
    content-wise.
