  • I really don't find the conversation any better, I think this place still needs to grow out of its echo chamber stage where it's a niche place with few commenters or diversity of opinion. I recall Reddit in its early days, different but similar.

  • Ya, according to Hamas there hasn't been a single fighter killed and you're parroting that. FFS.

    Maybe Hamas should release the hostages and lay down their arms? That's what is going to end this, nothing less and that's been clear for months.

    Why won't Hamas accept any of the deals Egypt has attempted to broker? They've been backed by multiple involved countries and Israel.

    Can't have a one sided ceasefire, that's not how that works.

  • Take a look at the map. There's one country in the region surrounding by countries whose Jews have been ethnically cleansed. The rest of them were forced to covert during the Arab conquests that swept the land. You've got Iran, Hamas and more all openly saying they want to murder the inhabitants of that lone non Arab country so ya, they're clearly defending their right to exist.

    Also interesting that you're accepting the numbers from the terrorists who started this round of fighting without question. Do you really think that not a single Hamas fighter has been among the dead? There was a Lord in Parliament the other day speaking on the civilian/combatant ratio being around 2.5:1, or about 9k of those dead being militants. Suppose you're taking Hamas numbers over the UK's on this cuz it fits your narrative?

  • It's wild this is downvoted so much. Hamas isn't going to ceasefire so if they're not going to release the hostages then Israel doing a solo ceasefire is just saying you want more Israelis killed because that's exactly what will happen if Hamas is able to get back on their feet. They continue to say as much.

  • When I hear things like Dearborn MI is voting for Trump, there's a sick part of me that wants to see what would happen if the Arab community was the reason Trump got into power.

    Like, I understand that you're very angry with the current situation but are you actually going to ruin your life and that of millions of your supposed brothers in the middle east to express that anger? Do people forget what Trump did as soon as he was in office last time?

  • As a builder, I have had this scenario play out dozens of times. Clients paying millions for design and being shocked at what they get. My favorite was the charity that the architect spec'd custom handmade tile from Italy for.... in a service bathroom lol. 40k to tile one wall of a bathroom for a charity that struggles to keep its doors open.

  • In Canada we import people to work the jobs deemed beneath Canadians.... then they're put up in company housing.

    Pretty much modern day slave trade. The money doesn't even stay in the country, a lot of it is remitted back home to their families.

  • This is a great thing to see. The stronger the world can project its power without the USA being the ones driving the tank, the better off everyone is. Except for the fucks like Haliburton but fuck them anyways.

  • Life was never easy, I don't know when the story it was got sold to people. At the end of the day, if you can't scrape together $1000, then shits beyond fucked up and tough decisions need to be made. I didn't take a vacation for like 15 years other than a long weekend so I could save up. That wasn't even tough LoL, it was just life. That was the norm around me and I expect it to continue for many if not most.
