The "fuck immigrants over" party is not popular with immigrants. Big surprise.
Republicans fuck over so many people, then they have to resort to crazy schemes like gerrymandering and voter suppression to not lose all the time. If they want to win, maybe do more popular things! This also goes for Joe Biden: all this complaining about leftist not voting for him, but he does nothing to convince them either.
On the scale of doing nothing to socialist revolution, this is a pretty minor change. But I'd love to hear some improvements that are not fantasies. Or do we just have to give up?
Hamas and PIJ militants attacked 20+ civilian communities and killed over 10% of the civilian population of the entire region with the explicit purpose of ethnically cleansing the area
VS
The civilian casualties in Gaza are a very sad fact of combat in a densely populated urban area
1200 deaths are a genocide, 37,000 deaths of which 25,000 in just the last 3 months is simply an unavoidable tragedy. Whatever makes you sleep at night I guess.
People here seem to think that the parties that want unification are pro-CCP. Taiwan (until now) thinks they are the rightful rulers of China. A decent part of three Taiwanese still want reunification. I'm happy that they don't have that delusion anymore, and I hope China follows suit, but let's not see the situation here too black and white.
Can the US bomb anyone they can't arrest? Don't the Houthis deserve a fair trial by an independent jury? Can any country bomb another country if they feel like it?
I know the answer is that it's because the US it's powerful and doesn't give a damn about people in the global south. But this is a grave injustice and the evil American empire deserves to fall.
The whole world watches as Israel commits genocide. The Houthis are brave to try to slow down the massacre of the Palestinian people, even though they themselves have been subject to a brutal war against them by the US and Saudi Arabia. If you care about the poorest people, then hold the capitalists responsible. They raise the prices on the poor and for any made up reason. We've seen this in the last couple years a when they pretended that it was inflation while they hoarded more and more wealth. Let them pay the skipping delay out of their own pockets first.
I'm not saying you're okay with it. I'm just pointing out that one offense justifies bombs and the other simply suing the boss (while admitting it doesn't do anything). I'm simply proposing we bomb Nestle before Yemen. In Minecraft of course.
It is what you're implying. Even in this very comment: you just assume that violence is appropriate for protecting a trade route, but we have to be very nice to CEOs of companies that destroy the environment and use slave labor. Please examine your own biases and see the consequences.
The US is willing to kill untold number of people because otherwise the cheap shirts made by children in Bangladesh will arrive slightly late. I do hope for this evil empire to fucking die already.
This comment got to me really late, probably to Lemmy's distributed nature.
But I still want to add: of course business will make more money if you allow more practices, but selling personal data just has too many negative consequences.
Also low quality advertising? You mean like billboards and in the newspaper? You mean regular advertising?
