i wonder if ansarallah has figured out a new way to sustain prolonged unilateral warfar with the overpowering odds and; for humanity's sake; i hope that it can scale better than the vietcong's approach.
i'm convinced that the reason why we're forced to run this rat race is because too many believe that we have to when we see the faster rats getting the things that we want.
connolly litterally gave his life supporting the status quo and was "rewarded" for it while the person who tried to buck the status quo was left out in the cold for it.
meme's are more consumable because of their brevity and their humor and i wonder whether or not they're more proned to manipulation given that longer forms of media DEFINITELY are given that they require much more capital to create.
This field is so incredibly lousy w people like us that it makes me marvel at the ones w the kind of job security that I crave because it means that their hyper focus not only aligns w the company's profit line but they've also managed to have a tenure that steered clear of enough clueless neurotypicals to keep them from getting fired or on the chopping block for a layoff.
i've recently had to accept that my neurodivergence makes managers, supervisors, etc. uneasy about me despite my stellar track record and the sole reason why i was able to maintain continuous employment was because of my high demand skill set; which means that employment will become increasingly difficult as i continue to age.
my experience suggests that they usually either go into consulting or software sales/relations; it went back to IT because it's easier to find work due to the lower levels of gatekeeping, which helps ensure that i meet my need to remain in the place i've chosen to live out the rest of my life.
... my point is that humans undervalue harms that are seen as less acutely, physically brutal ...
i think you've excellently summed up the reason why horrible things like a genocide are allowed happen; so long as we're not allowed to witness the atrocities in the media and we dehumanize them, we will never understand the needful visceral reaction to stop it.
So the risks are undervalued and both intentionally and unconsciously minimized. The result is most of us who’ve seen the inside are quietly horrified and that’s the end of it.
i wonder if something like the Hippocratic Oath could help; but then again the same physicians to took the oath committed atrocities & human rights violations under the eugenics programs/pushes that that the united states suffered from in the early to mid 20th century.
some are definitely sycophants; but i think most are useful idiots and i think you're seeing here how effectively they're being redirected by shills and other idiots to the re-frame the discourse away from biden and onto trump; i hope you continue to persist despite their downvotes and their attempts to goad you into getting banned or making you turn away from your efforts.
the significance here is that one of the 2 major parties attempted to push him as a presidential candidate until his mental condition became publicly unavoidable and would lead to further questions of why the genocide was allowed persist.
this also explains why trump was never prosecuted and barred from becoming the next president and sweeping these questions under the rug to re-frame the focus of discussion on trump is a clear appeal to the pointless and neverending culture war that prevents us from fighting the class struggle that tried to push biden into the presidency and allow trump to take it.
nato is a trench coat filled with nations with 2 agenda's that take precedence over defending ukraine:
the united states wants its minerals and is using its leverage of weapons to force the ukrainins to sign over minerals rights without any future guarantees of security; robbing them of a future income from this natural resource.
europe want's them to sign over guarantees of future economic ties with strings of future austerity measures as disguises to ensure that eu will have permanent access to the ukrainian market; robbing them of the ability to keep their future economic independence.
the ukrainians were fooled into believing that they could join the nato fold by the americans and the only thing they got for it is a dissolution of their future sovereignty like the vassals states of africa and latin america.
i started in a similar fashion (but through IT instead of electrical engineering) and i've also left the world of professional software engineering a couple of months ago, but not because of the bad code bases.
it feels like bad/spaghetti code with bad practices are more common than not and i've always wondered if the relatively intense level of gatekeeping in the software engineering field is a manifestation of a false mass belief that an engineering degree will automatically result in better code.
