    That AIPAC money hit different though

  • In that case, I guess one of us had a stroke... Though I can't rightly say who.

    Edit: After re-reading, it was definitely me - my mistake.

  • You're conflating actively supporting the genocide of Palestine (something the US doesn't benefit from outside Israel) and maintaining a strategic partner/toehold in the region - even if they're an ethnostate (something the US does benefit from).

  • Are you OK, my guy?

    The recent Israeli influence on the US is undeniable. The rest is a strawman that's the product of an unhinged mind.

    If you've got a point to make, be my guest... but this ain't it.

    What could they do to stop the genocide?

  • This isn't influence, this is communication.

    As for the US doing something it otherwise wouldn't do, the US gains nothing from the genocide of Palestine that doesn't relate directly to Israel. You've made two contradictory statements, and they're both wrong.

  • Well they're busy shitting all over the constitution, democracy, the rule of law, common fucking decency, common sense, voters, and the English language - the establishment clause was bound to catch some splatter.

    Genocide, much like war requires 2 parties - the perpetrators and the victims. You seem to have the two confused.

  • AIPAC money and geopolitical nonsense has the US actively assisting in a genocide as the media works overtime to earn their payday, spinning the bejesus out of the situation, doing massive political damage - because the US naturally wants Palestine genocided ^because ^^I ^^^dunno... ^^^^reasons.

    ...but Israel have no influence?

  • Making your choice of tech platforms a meaningful part of your personality is cringey as fuck - irrespective of the platform.

  • This isn't an internet thing - it's an inciting racist violence thing. Kiddie porn isn't suddenly fair game because you're on the internet, and rightly so - neither is inciting racial hatred.

    If he'd stood in the town square to rally the browncoats, he'd have a higher chance of being held accountable. Pick a better example to plant your flag - consolidation of social platforms like xitter into a state of oligopoly where a handful of people undemocratically set the rules they want via TOS would be a good start.

  • Most consumers hate the idea of AI-generated customer service

    Jump

  • Yeah - that's all part of the "unless enough people leave" point.

    It really depends on the market though - if it's not an essential good, it doesn't need to be replaced (online games). If there's adequate competition, there's largely undifferentiated alternatives (utilities around me)... and if not, you probably don't have a choice (your local government services, monopolies, and shallow markets for essential goods).

  • Better to just execute them on the spot - you don't want them slipping out of the cuffs, then have your partner's widow asking "why didn't you just shoot them?"

    People are already searched upon arrest, and I don't think most people are inclined to try to fistfight a pair of cops armed with batons, tasers and guns from the back of a cop car. It's not necessary in most of the rest of the world - are the residents of the land of the free so inherently prone to violence that they should be locked up just in case?

  • Unless they hate it enough to ditch a business or service in great enough numbers that it costs the business more money than they save by outsourcing to a computer, people had better get used to it.
