  • your propaganda piece doesn't relieve the blockade, free the people arrested without trial or charge, or open the border.

    it's a prison.

  • Palestine cannot win through violence.

    insurgencies win by attrition.

  • Can I defeat them militarily? If so I’d do that, if I can’t I’d make peace and get the best terms I can

    that just isn't something i'd do. personally, i'd wage an insurgency. i think anyone who chose to do that would be justified.

  • if someone tells me they don't want me around, i don't stick around

  • it's a ghetto with military-enforced borders. what would you do to the people keeping you caged?

  • this is deflecting from the blockade that people have been living under with no end in sight. it's an open air prison: of course they tried to attack their jailers

  • ad hominems are personal attacks and they are expressly prohibited on lemmy.world and c/news. if you think someone is violating the rules, you should report that.

  • i had a lease on an apartment when the process started.

    edit: honestly if the requirement were that you were homeless or next to it,i don't think anyone would ever apply for this program. the first application is daunting, and then there is the matter of actually shopping for a house.

  • The blockade in its current form

    seems pretty obvious that there was a blockade before october 7, so it's not possible that october 7 was the start of anything.

  • for this, we can literally blame the media. when they are silent about the syrian attacks and give israel 24h coverage, of course more people are going to have opinions on the subject the news is covering.

  • i live in a hot market. i got one. it was a slog, but it happened.

    edit: we were approved in november. we put in multiple offers and had to periodically get re-approved by the usda, but we had an offer accepted mid march and closed in april.

    for a brief period, we kept the "apartment in the city" for a month and moved one sub-compact car worth of belongings across town every night. not really relevant, but i'm going to remember fondly the brief time that we kept an apartment in the city, because that shit is never gonna happen again for poor schlubs like us.

  • we lost 4 bids and saw almost 2 dozen houses before finding a winner

  • USDA isn't gonna buy a fixer upper. they want people to have safe housing. this might mean the seller is going to need to fix the problems

    for us, we liked that, but it did mean we lost our on a couple bids. which was good: we found a real jewel.

  • fuck. I deleted my first reply while trying to edit.

    I was a liberal inn 2008, fell for syndicalism for a while and now I lean heavily toward galleanist insurrectionism, though I also like black anarchism.

    baby, I'm an anarchist
