yea yea sure they aren't. I lived most of my life in other places with similar shit shows and the abundance of "now they have crossed the line" or "now they are fucked" news never ceases in such scenarios. And they can go on for decades without causing any problems to fascism. To this day I don't know if they exists because they help people cope or they are a part of the shitshow itself so that people don't lose all hope and run away or descend into complete rioting. Probably mix of both.
Assuming that you are not arguing in bad faith and not full of bs, you can not defeat a fascist dictatorship while trying to wash away the murder and blood of another one. Unless tolerance for fascist dictatorships are completely eradicated from the world, there will always be a next one waiting to prey on weaker countries.
But I don't have much faith for a discussion with you. Given that you equate criticism of Israel with support of Hamas or not caring for Sudanese genocide, I am almost 100% sure you are discussing in bad faith. If you really cared about Ukraine or Sudan, you would also care about the same terror being forced onto Palestinian children and civilians.
I think we are strongly geared towards survival with lots of cost cutting measures. Going with the option that best suits our mental state is probably a side effect of that.
Yea agreed. When shitty science is given as a reference then it becomes much harder to critically judge something but at least it is not a huge amount of work to see that there is conflicting scientific data on a topic. It is a huge effort to try to gauge which one is more credible. And it does not even have to be agenda driven. It can just be bad science, science driven by strong priors. Then you really have to be an expert on the topic to be able to spot the weaknesses in that study. Luckily however most outrageously stupid statements made by politicians/billionaires and a huge body of online disinformation content don't even refer to existing science (if it doesn't give any references to scientific statements, assume it does not exist or ask for links) and are easy to pick apart by realizing the blatant contradictions in their statements.
