Reflections on the Israel-Palestine War

Just over one week ago, Hamas launched a surprise attack, triggering full scale war with Israel. DeviantArt has unequivocally taken the side of Israel: “In recent days, the world has been shaken by an act of sheer evil against the people of Israel. Israel was attacked by the terrorist organization Hamas, whose stated purpose for being is to kill the Jewish people.” https://www.deviantart.com/team/journal/United-in-PeaceForIsrael-987926621 If only it were so simple. DeviantArt acknowledges the suffering of Palestinians but blames it on Hamas: “Alongside the people of Israel, the Palestinian people are also impacted in the aftermath of the terrible attack by terror organization Hamas. Hamas rules the Palestinian people repressively, uses civilians as human shields, and dedicates the resources it has to terror.” Ibid. The United Nations has taken a different stance, accusing both the Israeli government and Hamas of war crimes: “We strongly condemn the horrific crimes committed by Hamas

Option to down vote suggested changes

DeviantArt collects votes on feature requests at https://www.deviantartsupport.com/en/feature-requests-1456493/collecting-votes?type=feature-request Unfortunately, users only have the option to vote for the proposed new feature, not against it. Are there any proposed features you would rather DeviantArt not introduce? The voting system seems one-sided when there is only an option to up vote a feature. Better yet would be the option to discuss proposed changes as occurred in the old suggestions forum, which DeviantArt abandoned in favor of the yes vote only model.

reflections on Independence Day

Independence Day Yesterday was July 4, 2020, the 244th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Although John Hancock was the first to sign, the declaration was written by Thomas Jefferson, who would later be the third President of the United States. In it, he wrote: ÒWe hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.Ó These words were written by a man who over the course of his life owned more than 600 slaves. https://www.monticello.org/slavery/slaver

My Bio

I joined DeviantArt in November 2010. I closed that account in July 2016, but I came back five months later.

I am a writer, mainly political and philosophical essays. I also post stories and upload photos. I use my scraps but most of my content is in my main gallery.

I want more feedback on my work. Watch me or favorite my work and I will check out your gallery.

I report spammers and scammers.

I favorite original content and watch the original artist if possible. If you find something in my favorites that you believe is stolen, let me know which deviation and where you think it came from or, if this is not possible, why you think it is stolen.

I am trying to get 100,000 llamas, which is the maximum number a user can receive. As of April 2024, I am more than 99% of the way there.

I give out llamas quickly so I may give them to people who do not want them. If you do not like llamas, you can disable badge notifications by checking the second box under notifications under Settings-General.

If you like llamas, check out my llama trading and resource account, littleyellowllama Also check out my group, 100KLlamas
