That is shitty and manipulative. Ive had one session with a manipulative one too. In just that first session he felt he could tell me what i was feeling, what i wanted, why i was there... the guy barely knew me, and he was quite persuasive. Good thing i was thinking fast enough that day to see through the bullshit.
Not quite. The us has strength, yes, but not to that point. Its strength is sufficient for some things, but it cant do everything it wants.
The us cant even do whatever it wants internally...
Look at venezuela, even after trump stated that venezuelan oil belonged to the us and was stolen by the chavist administrations, what is the us doing right now concretely? The us is buying oil at normal market prices from the chavist administration.
There are a bunch of things to research on fusion. Maybe they just thought this specific thing was out of reach, but were still trying to do other things.

Having communication tools that avoid big tech is resistance. It doesnt require doomsday to be useful. Tech companies are luring people into giving away too much data by reducing our available options. Creating alternatives is resistance to that movement.
Just recently i was looking to buy a second hand fridge and realised that most people around here advertise those in facebook pages. I even tried to recreate an account after years of not going there. But it asked me to scan my face... just to create a fucking account to view those fridge posts... Since i dont want that, im locked out of that market...
Hamas' actions aim to stop exactly that... an ongoing genocide to be more precise. Acting cleanly, morally, requires a strength that they dont have. This is what they can afford to do. Should they just die silently instead? while the world watches almost immobile?
You can support hamas at the level of their resistance to colonialism. Just like you can support Maduro at the level of the resistance to imperialist aggressions.
Support doesnt need to be absolute. But just supporting the palestinians without support for their flawed means of resistance is pointless, demobilising, weakening...
Vitamin C degrades too easily. Just by shaking an orange a little too much you destroy most of its vit C.
