  • Somebody mentioned that there are fight songs popular in my country as well. It seems like the post was deleted, and I only just got home, so I didn't have a chance to look up more than one of the songs they listed, which was a White Stripes song, but the whole thing struck me as a false equivalence, since my country's soldiers are not blowing the crap out of civilians and using those songs as a soundtrack for tiktok videos of them doing it. Also, I seriously doubt a song that contains such dehumanizing language about a specific group of people would become a hit in modern Canada. And finally, I have no love for Canada. They did their own genocide, but that's not the current topic. So, calling false equivalence on a post that was deleted. Guess I'm 'that guy' 🤷

  • I dont know any of those songs.'

  • I'm sure Israeli Jews are taught about the Holocaust. As a public-school educated kid in Canada, I was from grade 6 onward. School trips to Holocaust museums, theatre performances of Diary of Ann Frank, watched Schindler's List I don't know how many times when the teacher wasn't there. That or Jurassic Park or the Mask. Weird, I know. Took lots of notes so I could pass my tests.

    I wonder if Israel's right wing establishment was also taking notes when they studied the Holocaust, and why.

  • And how many of these saved emissions are are actually just credits that were purchased?

  • From the article: [Israeli soldiers] often use the Israeli hit song Charbu Darbu, which has lyrics such as “We’ve brought the whole army and I swear there will be no forgiveness,” and “every dog gets what he deserves in the end.”

    That's a hit song in Israel, is it? How dreadful.

  • So vote for the greater evil? I mean Trump's stated position on Gaza is to "let it play out" so he's for the genocide as well. He also promised to reject any refugees from Gaza.

    He's also a nihilist, on top of being as much of a lying sack-of-shit as any other politician you can name.

    So if you're voting for Trump, it's certainly not because you care about Gaza.

  • Well, they're sending Israel tank shells for the tanks that are blasting the crap out of Gaza and killing journalists, so yes they are very much activity supporting this shit.

  • The numbers for nuclear sound absolutely fantastic for whoever wins the contract. 🤔

  • If people want to tie their religious identity to a nation state and call me antisemetic when I criticize that nation state -- the same as I criticize any other nation state -- they are in fact trivializing the experience of those who experience actual antisemitism.

    I'm sure they don't see it that way, but it's hard for me to see such an attitude as anything other than disrespectful of one's own history.

  • An upvote from me is worth ten downvotes from them. Unfortunately this is not reflected in your numbers due to limitations of the platform.

  • People don't like dying?!?! That totally explains why all my enterprises so far have flopped!! 🤦

  • You really shouldn't get more than 8 grams of cocaine a day. Some people say they survive on 6 or even 4 but I think they must be getting sleep.

  • I'm so post

  • I am happy to help you with your experiment, toxic though it is.

  • Not gonna lie: it might've been me

  • Ditto. You could find some weird stuff on there. I have a whole 4GB external SCSI drive sitting somewhere with a bunch of weird demos or bootlegs that I haven't been able to find since because they were tagged by someone on acid

  • And this is what happens when you sit in front of a computer for a couple years, hitting the pipe but ignoring the right-/left-wing flame bait. You get normal drug stuff like, like erudite garden gnomes doing unspeakable things to woodland creatures. Pervy Garden Gnome 2024!
