Yeah the BBC has been credibly accused of this and surely other MSM sources. In this exact case, the detained are quite actually alleging mistreatment, which has been corroborated by others there, but not proven. The IDF thugs are responding to the allegations with a statement, they don’t allege back. I dunno, of all the examples of double standards, this one seems most innocuous, but i do take your point.

I get the semantics, but “allege” is standard journalistic practice. Reporting on it is calling it out.

Preceded maybe? Precluded sounds like it should mean something similar for sure tho

“Precluded” means “prevented” or to “make impossible” ❤️

Honestly, agree. People need to pick. Do you want human rights violating prisons filled to the brim with people and violence? Or do you just want that for the cops? How many innocent and non violent people are being subjected to the same or similar treatment?

In my opinion, the quality of a society can be observed on how they treat their prisoners. If you’re okay with torturing people who have gone through the judicial system, then you’re just as much a barbarian as any other.

How can you make the world a better place if you are adding suffering? To be fair, I have similar sentiments toward animals especially anything factory farmed. I can’t even tacitly accept any worldview that is okay with the suffering of anyone or anything, let alone one that cheers it on.

Fuck these fucking pigs, but I hope they live lives free of torture, save that imposed by their own consciences (hopefully).
