I understood that refere-BAM!

I would say Lemmy is very heavy on emotions. Not a diss on Lemmy. I think it's a great platform but my god! It's like being stuck in an elevator with the angriest hormonal teens on the planet. Everyone, jeesus, please just chill and have a convo. My god.

I don't think... English is their first language. I could be wrong

Nop nop nop. Not doing it. Not taking the bait. Nooooopppeeee. Byeeeeeeeee

Hooooo boiiiiiii

Thanks man. I appreciate it!🙂

This article goes into some detail. However it is focused on the US market.

Meat and pets

European markets are a little different.

Hey. Interesting. Did you ever do an evaluation for ADHD? I'm 38 and I started the process last week. I'm still waiting for the final interview. I don't know what will come of in but it will be nice to have some clarity.

I remember a convo we had a while back. I don't mean to psychoanalyze but I recall all your responses being filled with very loaded language kinda how you're doing here.

It's obvious the person you are responding to in this thread is not particularly keen on the convo but you come at them very charged. I don't know, maybe don't take it so personal. I get that they lumped you in with a group you probably don't identify with but it's not worth the battle. Just my 2 € thoughts. All this online debate only leads to misery.

This has to be some kind of chatgpt essay blend. How are you able to write so much based on so little? All your comments are like walls of text responses to like one liners. I just don't get it. How? How do y'all have so much time on your hands???

Sorry, I meant to say it's slowing down, not trending down as I wrote originally. Most stats show this trend.

It's not working and they have cause for concern. Mean consumption is on a downward trend

Edit: I meant to say in the United States it's slowing down.

Eh, as long as Netanyahu (or any foreign government) isn't instructing them directly on how the funds should be spent it's perfectly legal. Otherwise any lobby group is allowed to lobby on behalf of any interest, including an ally nation. Is it ethical? That's debatable. Is it legal? Yes, as long as FARA is not being violated.

You're welcome to start your own lobby group, Ensign.

For what it's worth, I'm not down voting you.

So there is direct foreign interference from Israel violating FARA?

Or is AIPAC an American Lobby group that is sympathetic to Israel?

Which is it?

What does this mean:

The party welcomes foreign interference

Walk us through what you meant to say with that.

I don't know if you are doing it intentionally. The alt right uses AIPAC funded by Israel extremely often as an Anti-semitic talking point and also as a method to minimize any Ukraine involvement. Whether intentional or not, your initial claim insinuated this heavily as if Israel and the deepstate are pulling the strings on our politicians. The reality is there are many Jews living in the US, and those jews are sympathetic to Israel. It also happens that Israel has been a longstanding ally of the US (whether that's ethical or not is a different discussion). If you want to make the claim that AIPAC has influence in politics that's significantly different than a foreign entity crossing FARA and directing US policy. The world is not so black and white.

Netanyahu. AIPAC bought two candidates right out in the open. The party welcomes foreign interference against progressives.

Isn't the implication here that Israel - a foreign entity - is directing an american Lobby directly?

I understand what you're trying to say, but you've mixed in 3 different topics into a blender to build up a narrative. This is literally a gish gallop and it's intentional.

The only thing I pushed back was that AIPAC was taking money directly from Israel and circumventing FARA, which is a common conspiratorial talking point.

Now in addition to addressing FARA, you want to talk about

• incumbent advantage and popularity of these candidates
• dems support for genocide,
• the influence of lobbying in elections.

Love seeing more Edward Gorey
