My friend, I will give you the benefit of doubt and believe you when you say that this post's purpose was to make fun of how shitty Twitter's community notes are, and that is indeed an important topic to shed light on, so people won't treat community notes as reliable.

However,

You can rest assured that a significant portion of the people who saw this post believed it as straight fact.

It is impossible to overstate how gullible people on the internet are, and how readily they will straight up believe conspiratorial BS, especially surrounding controversial topics like Israel.

That's how Poe's law works, and it is attitudes like yours that don't take this shit seriously that end up inadvertently contributing to an environment full of libelous antisemitic conspiracies on the internet.

I beseech you to carefully consider this stuff if you ever plan to post such a thing again.

I've been using 'Pocket Casts' on Android for years. Highly recommend it.

It's worth supplementing this with his earlier statement from 2 days ago:

“Ukraine condemns Iran’s attack on Israel using ‘Shahed’ drones and missiles. We in Ukraine know very well the horror of similar attacks by Russia, which uses the same ‘Shahed’ drones and Russian missiles, the same tactics of mass air strikes,”

“It is critical that the United States Congress make the necessary decisions to strengthen America’s allies at this critical time,” he says.

Another part of the answer is geographical. Jordan helped Israel intercept because their airspace is between Iran and Israel.

The distance between Russia and Ukraine is far shorter.

Zelensky's tweet full text:

The entire world witnessed allied action in the skies above Israel and neighboring countries. It demonstrated how truly effective unity in defending against terror can be when it is based on sufficient political will.

Israel, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Jordan acted together and with maximum efficiency.

Together, they prevented terror from prevailing. And they are working together, and in coordination with others, to prevent further escalation.

Israel is not a NATO member, so no action, such as triggering Article 5, was required. And no one was dragged into the war. They simply contributed to the protection of human life.

"Shaheds" in the skies above Ukraine sound identical to those over the Middle East. The impact of ballistic missiles, if they are not intercepted, is the same everywhere.

European skies could have received the same level of protection long ago if Ukraine had received similar full support from its partners in intercepting drones and missiles. Terror must be defeated completely and everywhere, not more in some places and less in others.

I thank everyone in the world, every leader and state, who truly assists us with air defense and missiles necessary to protect our skies, as well as training our pilots on F-16s. All of this already works and will continue to work to save lives.

However, we can now see how unity can work truly a hundred percent, and how almost a hundred percent of “Shaheds” and missiles can be intercepted. We will discuss it with our partners.

It has a major flaw: it works from anywhere so long as the phone is unlocked.

I wish there was an option to set it that payments work only when I open the wallet app.

To avoid accidentaly triggering a payment, what I do now is manually turn NFC off after every payment

 

I used to use thepiratebay.org, but recently it seems the quality of the site has degraded.

I sometimes also use 1337xx.to , but that site seems to have a very small selection.

Note that I couldn't find an answer to this question in the wiki + meathread, so if the answer is already there, please direct my attention to it 🙏🏴‍☠️

I always though the phrase "that's easier said than done" is silly because nearly everything is easier said than done

I find it both hilarious and impressive that they bother including a satire news source in their aggregator. I also like that they clearly mark it as [SATIRE] everywhere possible.
