  • Hey. If you kill enough people in your family any princess can be a "future queen". You gotta think positive.

  • There's a lot of libs that run off of identity politics here and are completely delusional in thinking that this somehow will connect with Trump voters since she's white.

    What lack of material analysis does to a mother fucker.

  • This is literally only for some old pearl clutching lifelong Democrat voters. "Oh no not the poor queen" is not something anyone that voted for Trump would say. Ironically, it's gonna be one thing progressives are gonna have in common with Trump voters. We both don't give a fuck about this queen. Trumps entire base is built on fake working class outrage.

    This article and story does nothing to change any minds.

  • Honestly. If a couple bourgeoisie take some strays for Trump's awful policies I'm not gonna shed a tear. Who the fuck cares about a Belgium queen? I care about the working class kid that isn't gonna graduate. Fuck the Queen.

  • Glad to hear I'm not alone. I can notice subtle things very well. But big colors and buttons I'm basically trained to ignore. I complain about app/web UI design to a massive degree too. We need more autism coated people approving these things.

  • Ok. So I'm not even sure if I'm autistic. ADHD for sure and I know those often go hand in hand. But this post made me think of something that I find kind of disabling. Wondering if anyone else has this problem.

    Ads. Ads have ruined my brain. I have become so good at completely ignoring ads and very "eye catching" signs and graphics. My brain usually looks for useful information "in-between" those lines. It's very helpful for filtering through bull shit.

    But a side effect of this is that my brain will literally filter out important warning signs. Signs that are meant to be very very obvious so you follow them. "Do not enter" type of signs.

    I find myself missing really really obvious signs like this in public and it's often embarrassing. I finally realized it was because of how I've trained my brain to ignore advertising. These "obvious" things I have taught my brain are not useful information in 99% of cases since they are usually advertising.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

  • Man accused of killing 2 Israeli Embassy staffers in DC charged with murder of foreign officials

  • The degree of involvement of a non combatant is effective only in the public understanding of that position.

    Luigi as an example. The public clearly understands that material impact even though that CEO isn't directly killing people. We all know why he did it.

    Anyone taking action "politically" and not just "emotionally" would understand this. I don't advocate for vigilante justice. But I will make a judgement on when it's done.

    Luigi shifted public opinion in favor of his cause. This killing is only hurtful to the cause. There is no positive shift here. Especially in the positions and power of the targets.

    All we can do now, is push back in the disgusting use of pro Israel people that are salivating at this incident in order to further justify starving Gaza.

  • That's too much credit in my opinion. This is bound to happen statically. Israel just had to wait and capitalize on it. It's amazing it took this long. We didn't seem to care when a landlord killed a Palestinian child who was his tenant. They didn't seem to care when a Zionist shot two Arab Jews that they mistook for Palestinians.

  • Sorry. I've been advocating for Palestine since I first learned about the conflict truly as a young kid in 2015: as an ignorant college kid that visited my first major city of Chicago on an internship. Spoke with a Palestinian women and gave her a nod and an "ok" as she desperately tried to connect with me on what was being done to her family. She is was just holding a sign alone as I passed through the city. I was an ignorant idiot then. But even though I treated her like a random panhandler, what she said still stuck.

    I'll never know exactly what she said to me. But I know it's when I started to care. I have definitely become cynical and frustrated, and tired since that time. But, I do really appreciate your reply.

    I just only hope my own frustration or "snark" is heard in the same way.

  • People that get to this stage aren't often thinking clearly. They are looking for place to release the anger and pain.

    It's why Luigi was such a unique case of vigilante justice. He was actually thinking clearly, and agree with him or not, he hit a target that most of the country thought "well, yeah that was bound to happen eventually".

    Allegedly obviously. Luigi allegedly did this. I still think they got the wrong guy.

  • Sincerely, what else could be meant by what they said?

    When a child is murdered in Gaza those advocating for Palestinians point to it as a reason to end the bloodshed. Hundreds of children were murdered by Israel just this week. No one in the media has spoken there names or talked about their hopes and dreams.

    When an Israeli diplomat is murdered those advocating for Israel use it as a reason why they need to continue to murder said children. The diplomat is treated like a human. Their names are known. The media tells us the sad story of their hopes and dreams that were stolen from them.

    Palestinians are not treated as humans. Their deaths are statistics. Israeli deaths are treated as tragedies.

    It's a reason why this genocide continues. You have to dehumanize a population to the masses. And Israeli has succeeded in dehumanizing Palestinians, at least to the Western world.

    The deaths of their own diplomats are simply tools to continue to justify their genocide. They don't care about their diplomats anymore than they do their hostages in Gaza.

  • If we had one public social media platform that would be the best way. It would force people to filter and learn how to interact with technology. But in our world people are lazy and a platform that picks the best value of X automatically for the most people will win. Even if it's not actually how people want to see things.

  • My neighborhood i rent in is really expensive. I'm well off but not well off enough to ever be able to afford a house here. Especially not now with a one year old kid. My rent is $3500 but the cheapest house here would be at least $10000 (all expenses considered) a month on a 30 year mortgage.

    Most of the people that live in the single family homes here are old with no kids. Most families with kids here rent.

    Every so often I see one of the homes get all it's landscaping cleaned up, the house painted and sometimes an extension added onto it. Those are all the Airbnb's. Just a house that sits there empty for 3/4 weeks.

    The other ones get torn down and turned into what I'd call a "box" house. Basically that ugly style of house that takes up the entire plot of land but still is only meant for one family. These are bought by the inherited wealth families that have a couple kids and want to get out of the main city but still don't want to live in the deep car dependent suburbs.

    All of this because housing is used as an investment vehicle. From large corporations to individuals in retirement.

    I really wish we could treat it for what it is. Shelter.

  • Nowhere. Because it's already allowed. Don't need to make something legal that's already legal. 14th amendment literally allows for slave labor in the case of "criminals". Why do you think they keep trying to label everyone a criminal or terrorist? We've been using slaves to fight fires for a long time.
