Yesterday I asked Claude for 5 quotes by Israeli officials that could be interpreted as genocidal. I already had the quotes, but was curious to see. 2 of them were either sourced incorrectly and 2 were just made up.
I got the quotes by just looking them up.
Can’t explain what it’s like to see, on live TV, the genocidal Israeli army’s tanks gathering at the border of my country

Trump will only get worse.
Donald J. Trump & @realDonaldTrump There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!)." Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP 281 ReTruths 938 Likes 3/6/26, 7:50 AM
⚠️ Trump:
“There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL
SURRENDER!”
He is totally disconnected from reality.
We thought that those silly movies plots about a rich maniac trying to conquer the world were unrealistic. Apparently someone mistook them for foreign policy lessons.
absolute sociopaths
My 89 yo Lebanese-Palestinian-Italian grandmother, who fled the Nakba in 48 as a child to Lebanon, has essentially never lived more than a few years at a time in nearly a century of existence without being impacted by Israeli state violence.
And then they call this 'crisis in the middle east.'

I appreciate that @bsky.app has released this, but without full transparency about what constitutes "rude" content (which, btw, is hidden or shadowbanned, while more harmful content is merely labeled), you're not hitting the mark with this.
Every purchase helps keep @globalvoiceslingua.bsky.social active, enabling volunteers to translate community-driven journalism into dozens of languages.
This work opens doors, builds understanding, and ensures voices from around the world can be heard—not just locally, but globally.

Most translation funding still goes to bestsellers or colonial languages.
This campaign shifts that balance by supporting translations from under-represented languages, like Shona, Nishinaabemowin, Ukrainian, Malay, Hausa, isiZulu, Tamil, Thai, Brazilian Portuguese, and more.
These books aren’t written to explain or exoticize their cultures—they come from within, offering loving, critical, and nuanced perspectives.
Reading them helps us see that while our struggles are shared, our experiences are uniquely powerful.

This project was built by a worldwide community of writers, editors, and translators.
It shows what happens when global storytellers collaborate: they share, build, and learn across languages—just like the mission of @globalvoiceslingua.bsky.social.

Translation Is Political. Translation decides whose stories travel, whose are preserved, and whose are ignored.
By supporting this campaign, you help fight the inequity of whose voices get translated—supporting writers from cultures often overlooked in mainstream publishing.
This donation campaign works on a sliding scale:
• $5 → choose any 3 books
• $25–$100 → get all 12
Buyers also choose whether 10% goes to Global Voices.
Affordable for readers, life-changing for translators.

StoryBundle for Global Voices Lingua
Several books in this bundle are brand-new translations, created exclusively for this project—especially works from marginalized languages and regions where long-form translation rarely receives funding.
Your purchase helps bring these voices to the world.
