Note that this means “83% of people killed were civilians”, not that 83% of civilians were killed. As the graph in the article illustrates, that puts this neck and neck with other recent genocides:
The fact that this sentence can be said, unironically, and backed with data, is kinda depressing.
Notably, Hamas on Oct 7 killed two civilians for every military casualty. By the IDF’s own numbers, the IDF are literally greater terrorists than Hamas. Hamas literally does a better job at avoiding civilian casualties than the IDF does.
If you qualify military targets the way the IDF does then Hamas killed over 90% military targets on october 7.
95% civilians of mariupol? Holy fuck
Yes, that’s the result of Russia “liberating” a city. I’m surprised Grozny doesn’t show up here - enough civilians got away, I guess. The city itself was completely obliterated.
In any case, it is civs/total deads… and maybe Grozny didn’t got enough press.
Since Mariupol i have welded in my mind the russian word for children. Freaking animals.
Yup. This is why I had to ban someone posting Russian propaganda from a Pro-Russia Mariupol Youtube channel.
“Look how much better things are with Russia instead of Ukraine!” bullshit.

you should ban zionists who deny the genocide that killed 85% of civilians too
I absolutely do, but that doesn’t come up as often. Most often it’s the anti-zionists advocating murder, death, and destruction.
I have reported guys talking about how palestinians voted for hamas or denying occupation
Unfortunately, Palestinians DID vote for Hamas. That on it’s own is not removable.
It ignores the larger context of WHY they voted for Hamas, a decade of Israeli abuses going back to the 90s and treating the previous elected party (PLO) as terrorists and not a legitimate government, but it doesn’t change the fact that Hamas were elected.

It is always used to blame palestinian to what happened to them
That’s why I say “on it’s own” not removable. I’d need to see the comment in question to say more.
