At no point did I shoot the messenger, I'm just empathically saying there's no fence sitting in this situation that's extremely clear for anyone except those with a very 'European colonizer' mindset.

No! Dune, the book series, is basically all dialogue or internal dialogue and Denis made two beautiful films, from the cinematographic, visually aesthetic perspective, but left out or unnecessarily changed (and negatively altered) much of its essence. It's all style over substance, basically, and it f'd up the substance as well.

I love that film! It's what I wanted Dune to be a bit more like, lol.

Idk what you meant by this but okay. 👍

Indeed!

I don't mind when the person seems knty, but I don't want a nice person with FAS to feel bad... You're right, I'll control myself. 🤷👍

You listen knowing they will always lie/spin the truth, because from the spin and lies and with knowledge of the liar (what benefits and doesn't benefit) you can get to the truth. There's no point in passive listening unless you wanna be a propaganda parrot, lol.

Even "let me Google that for you" was popular only some years ago. Yes, people are lazy, unthinking hedonists most of the time. In the absence of some sort of strict moral basis, society degenerates because only the tiniest minority will even think about things to try to establish some personal rules.

She should do it for free then. This dumb b is taking advantage of truly stupid people, as if she weren't rich enough. 🙄

But don't most Israelis* take part in the killing (either directly or indirectly by being a POG) through their military service? In America, I could believe that while most people are stupid and amoral, there are only a minority of bloodthirsty racists...

Liberal means "covert" and "more palatable" but with the same objectives.

Germans killed other Germanics, Northern and Eastern Europeans so these Germanic, Northern and Eastern Europeans moved to the Middle East and killed Semites. 🤷😔

Seems like an easy moral "don't go to jail card" that collapses under any sort of scrutiny ("so your parents were murdered by their European neighbours so now you can murder Semites without issues?"), perhaps because they themselves have some blood in their hands and would rather bury their heads in the sand. Diabolic behaviour, NGL.

Who do you think Jesus was? A Buddhist preacher? 😅

October 7th? Seemingly unprovoked?

Do they not understand how Israel was created and how it's maintained ? It's like if the Europeans who invaded, pillaged and settled in North America also stole their identities afterwards to spin the narrative! After all, Germanics and Eastern Europeans are as Semitic as I am a lady (I'm a hairy dude). The only moral thing to do is to condemn Israel as the European colonial project it always was, and not to take part in the killing at the very least.

But how can "Jews" (Moses killed ONE man in a way that one Palestinian could kill one low level IDF soldier and that was enough for him to realise that wasn't the way... how do they claim to fear God? Lol) talk about it in earnest when their hands are covered in blood? The cowardly, weak and irresponsible way of acting will follow their personalities and they'll just have a tantrum not to accept the reality of things: if you were part of the IDF, you 100% murdered innocents and have probably earned your place in Hell (definitely if you never repent!). I understand how sensitive that can make one feel, at the same time I understand they're truly horrible human beings who will make any excuses and believe any lies necessary, so honest dialogue is impossible...

The shamelessness of it all, on both ends of course, is just astonishing. What's wrong with y'all?

That's almost certainly some Roman pagan/polytheist addition, NGL. In those few verses you also get Jesus and the disciples singing hymns and Jesus talking about his resurrection... :/

But Victoria Nuland and Geoffrey Pyatt said we "were in play" a little over a decade ago... were they both rogue agents?!

Randomness? Or uncertainty? Cause I understand uncertainty (both epistemologically and physically, and more so the former than the latter), but it's hard for me to understand randomness when everything comes from something that came before, forming a line of causes and effects (knowable and unknowable) from the beginning of the universe until today. Perhaps through quantum physics, idk, but I don't think I need to understand it as long as I only take into consideration what happens after the collapse of the wave function, lol. I also understand that consciousness is a black box, and free will is evidently real (go diet or be faithful in your teenage yours, you'll quickly discover your freedom as you're fighting yourself) but is axiomatic and cannot be properly explained in words (it's part of the terrain that cannot be represented in the map).

Respectfully, I think both the question and the premise are quite meaningless.
