  • This seems to happen in every int'l sports competition, like the Olympics and the World Cup.

  • Their custom DNS is very ant-crypto. Janet Yellen is the personal resolver.

  • Nobody does free speech like the Israel lobby.

  • support Palestinian human rights

    Isn't this just human rights? The language that's used in this conflict is a bit confusing, for example one does not have to particularly like Palestinians as a group to be against the ethnic cleansing of Palestine or the violations of human rights and international law perpetrated by Israel on a daily basis, yet they are called "pro-Palestinian". Of course some accusations of antisemitism are intentionally deceptive to silence opposition to Israel's regime (or labelling opposition as "pro-Hamas"), but even the conflict overall is labelled as Israel vs. Palestine when in reality it's Israel vs. international law. Maybe this is a hasbara narrative, idk.

    The kicker here is that by equating opposition to genocide with antisemitism it means that perpetrating genocide is a trait inherent in Jews, which is hella racist.

    Anyway your "Palestinian human rights" phrase made me want to ask what you and others think, not trying to bash you or anything. For example, when the U.S. invaded Vietnam, those opposed to the war were called "anti-war protesters", not "pro-Vietnam protesters".

  • This is like that article published recently about the IMF predicting the Russian economy will grow most out of all developed countries. It's because of war production, which is neither real nor useful economic growth, and only short-term.

    Argentina's inflation is down because demand has been decimated i.e. increased poverty, and people who were recently middle class now don't even have a mailing address.

  • What is the legal basis for additional sanctions on Iran?

  • Yea, their argument boils down to "well Hamas so they deserve it, it's their own fault". Incredibly apathetic and cruel. Tbf people who think like that are also victims of something truly fucked up in their lives, but they are wrong and Israel is wrong to do this. Full stop.

  • Typical Boko Haram supporter.

  • Why are they all trying to get labor for free then? They love free!

  • Bernie Sanders has been saying for 30 years that the bill is too damn long! Representatives get very limited time to read bills so they usually don't and just vote along party lines. This is a form of deception and it's intentional.

  • Please no, not like that. Their government spending is only on things that go BOOM!

  • Damn I wish I was as level headed as you are.

    How's your newish Thinkpad treating you btw? Got everything set up the way you like? Is the processor fast enough for everything you need?

  • Israel: bombs a diplomatic target without warning

    Iran: bombs 2 military targets with warning

    USA: shoots down most of the assets that made it even close to Israel

    Biden: Biden reportedly told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that “Israel really came out far ahead in this exchange”

    I wonder what game they're playing.

  • North Gaza is Israel now.

  • What's cultural capital? Do you mean regular money? Grades are definitely tied to regular money, from how quiet it is in your neighborhood at night (how much sleep you can get), to access to food and healthcare, to tutoring and prep courses.
