Israel’s own databases indicate that 83% of those killed in Gaza were civilians.

IDF generals have falsely inflated the number of militants killed by more than 200%, while soldiers routinely report those killed as militants without ID or verification.

Revealed: Israeli military’s own data indicates civilian death rate of 83% in Gaza war

Figures from classified IDF database listed 8,900 named fighters as dead or probably dead in May, as overall death toll reached 53,000

Quinton Barnes doesn’t play by the rules—and refuses to be silenced by the rulers. Dense, dissonant, and devastatingly honest, Black Noise (@wtetn.bsky.social) is a 33-minute reckoning. Messy. Brilliant. Necessary.

This isn’t a rebrand. It’s a reckoning. Bite Down, the debut from Ribbon Skirt, is a post-punk exorcism of expectations. I wrote about identity, reinvention, and the power of being hard to ignore.
