  • Unsurprisingly, you cannot answer even the most basic and rudimentary questions.

    "You can't defend the actions of Israel you only know how to attack Hamas. Why are you incapable of criticizing Israel?

    Right now it's not all that different from how Germans kept murdering 'undesirables' even when it was obvious they'd lose. It's tragic how people can become so indoctrinated in hatred they can't stop committing genocide when their moral legitimacy is completely destroyed, there is zero chance they can win, the only thing they can accomplish is getting more people (mostly women and children) killed. But they continue to fight out of hatred or some insane idea that it's somehow honourable to murder Gazans or whatever. Even after IDF soldiers called out their government's war crimes, Israelis keep on fighting and Palestinians keep on dying.

    The leaders of Hamas are all dead, their cities are bombed to shit, but Israel still keeps the war going instead of fighting to return hostages. Why?

    Look at the photos of Gaza. This is the accomplishment of the "children of light and civilization". Was it worth it? Did Netanyahu do anything good for the Israeli people?"

    What an idiot.

  • But to speak to the condescension: only a lazy, entitled, pathetically obtuse Westerner would have the gall to say everything is okay while your people's institutions kill the Earth. Hopefully enough of you will die without children and we can rebuild the world without the toxicity of Western Christians.

  • Okay. Let's assume everything you are saying is true: how does shooting children and women at aid distribution sights help further Israel's purported goals? How does the forced displacement of 2 million people help destroy Hamas? Why isn't Israel committing itself to the release of hostages? Why is the ICC asking for Netanyahu's arrest for war crimes? How do you excuse Israel's plan to build a 'humanitarian city" and force the civilian population to be deported to foreign countries? How do you rationalize this? What is Israel's goals and intentions? How many Palestinians do you think should die before things are right again?

  • "the alternative is primitive tribal life" is classic Capitalist propaganda.

    You're absolutely right though, we have progressed incredibly far. It's almost as if we have all the knowledge and tools to build a truly inclusive society that provides a dignified standard of living for all people, yet there are stubborn and powerful groups interested in maintaining economic heirarchies and exploiting biases for political gain...

  • I understand. FWIW, I'm American and I think it's a valid criticism. Tipping culture is just a smoke show to distract from wage suppression and exploitative labor practices. I say this as someone who also worked in fine dining for a decade before switching careers.

    By and large, restaurant culture in the US is disgustingly oppressive and completely reliant on immigrant labor, hence the lack of any meaningful headway in legislating protections for said laborers. However, the trick in America is to push the middle class just to the edge of their means so they punch down on service workers, but not enough for them to develop class consciousness.

  • It's a natural consequence of decoupling value from productivity; and instead relying on data harvesting for predictive analytics as an alternative for anything truly valuable.

    We're living in a world in which the wealthy keep coming up with ways to hand money back and forth, while creatinf new schemes to cut out the working class from any resulting 'value' creation.

    AI will fuck over workers just like every other technological marvel that preceded it.

  • Yeah this article rightly points out Eisenhower's foresight and the ways intelligent leaders saw the writing on the wall throughout the last century. 2016 was certainly an inflection point, but in hindsight 2020 seemed to be the tipping point.

    American voters in both major parties consistently vote against their own collective interests in order to maximize individual gain. It's irrational, but also so essentially American.

    For example, consider that the historical self-narrative and cultural lexicon for young American students is essentially:

    "We are the greatest country on Earth. Our ideals are universal and should be impressed upon all of Earth's peoples. We deserve all the wealth we have, but are not responsible for the consequences. Any criticism against us is a direct attack on our way of life."

    It should be no shock that without intentional efforts to maintain civic society, integraye immigrants and other minorities, and foster social cohesion through rural-urban exchange; this type of culture quickly erodes into the 'fuck you, got mine' mentality rampant on social media, perpetuated by corporate interests, and exploited by malicious political agents.

  • Who is honestly shocked that support for LGBT people is fragile, varies by gender, and diminishes greatly depending on how old you are? I mean I'm practically older than legalized same-sex marriage has been in most of the West.

    The same trends occur regarding womens' rights, immigration, gender identity, etc as well.

    It's almost like the West has only ever engaged in performative lipservice to legitimize its hegemony.

    Now we'll all watch as the 'free world' wrings its hands and embraces US-fascism, along with all the hatred and discrimination it entails, because the alternative is reparations and letting non-white, non-Christian, non-capitalist countries call the shots. Everyone points and says 'Nazis!' at Republicans and Trump; but they forget that until the Blitzkreig, most Western countries were fine with antisemitism as long as the moneymaking machines went brrr

    Meanwhile, the EU continuously engages in exploitative extractive capitalism across the Global South, just as the US does. Even the Mercosur-EU deal is based on large part by allowing EU-based corporations to invest in infrastructure that they build, they operate, and with a legal framework to challenge the sovereignty of the countries they need resources from in order to maintain their bloated wealth.

    The West is a failing civilization that has contributed greatly to mankind, but has never been able to reckon with its violent and racist legacy.

    And that's why:

    Y'all are cooked AF.

  • Actually the report that came out recently (the one that found institutional real estate investors buying something like 27% of all available homes) made an important note: most of the companies buying these homes are so-called "mom n pop" landlords who own < 5 houses

    So it's actually corporations AND fucking boomers.
