I don't know how people can live without niche subs that simply don't exist on lemmy. I read them but I can't participate since reddit fingerprints me no matter what I do and instantly bans my new accounts.
My only point with my original comment is that people are freaking out as though this is about to be Iraq War take 3. I see no evidence of that. It would require an invasion.
I mean how many dozens of times have we done something similar to this without anything becoming of it? Didn't Trump literally assassinate an Iranian general during his last term?
It doesn't really matter what you call it. W. and Obama normalized not declaring war on the countries you bomb. Unless the US plans to invade, it won't be a war in the traditional sense of the word.
Sounds like some young people who haven't been through this before. This is not going to lead to a war. The USA has been bombing other countries continuously for decades.
Eternal September refers to September 1993, when a popular internet service provider (AOL) provided easy access to Usenet for its users, which immediately threatened the existing culture and lowered the quality of discourse.
Before this, September was only a temporary problem as a new batch of college freshman would arrive and be unaccustomed to the place.
People think I'm unpleasant to be around but if I wasn't trying as hard as I can to be nice, I'd be the next Hitler or something. They don't see that effort though. Chronic pain sucks.
Mother nature made us more clever than other animals but didn't give us any additional wisdom. So we destroy our environment and overshoot our population the same as any other species.
Too bad our environment is 'everywhere.' Perhaps nature wanted to commit suicide and so spawned us.
