  • You talk about how foreign policy is about power and influence - I am saying Biden doesn't understand how influence works as evidence by him not using his power to influence Israeli policy even though it is leading to a more volatile middle east and lower approval ratings at home. In other words, he is undermining his own influence. But go on and tell us how we're children for expecting more.

  • I wonder if there will be another lawsuit over bombing / shooting the hostages. Just horrific.

  • I think their goal is to displace 90% into Egypt and kill the rest. Still genocide.

  • Yeah, we totally reined in their terror by giving them everything they wanted. Biden thinks if he is nice enough they will return in kind. He tends to use the same tactic when negotiating with Republicans 🤦‍♂️

  • My pixel phone had a wave of salt water from the ocean get into the USB-C port. The phone detected the moisture and disabled the port until it was clean and dry. The port still works.

  • Yet people still claim the label "Palestinian Jew" - are we to deny their claim to belief?

  • I hear both (non-settler) Jews and Christians live in Gaza, that wouldn't be possible if Hamas was all about Jew hating...

  • I guess that would make Israel anti-Semitic as well.

  • Doubt you'll find something on this site: https://www.mutualaidhub.org/

    Locally for me it has been getting involved in the local community: maker space (we made masks during COVID), bicycle group, and a very radical church with a community pantry. But it sounds like those things might not be available where you are, so it might instead be getting involved in a foraging group or other local activities that make sense. Sharing local knowledge outside the Internet is a good habit in case if shit goes south.

  • Not sure how Solipsism contradicts atheism or anything else for that matter... I see it more as punting the question. If my mind is the only way for me to know what exists, and my experience is such that atheism is true, then that's the end of the discussion. Not sure why I am arguing with myself on this one. /S

  • What's the saying? "You can't control what you can't measure."

  • People with guns still need a support network. Get connected to your local mutual aide network if you can.

  • And that's how COVID became the #1 cop killer for two years. But to hear my cop brother in law recount it: "COVID doesn't exist for us."

  • Fun fact, the vast majority of the fentanyl is smuggled in by our own citizens!

  • Hell, you can't even invent something stylish without it being co-opted by fascists. Hitler ruined the toothbrush mustache.

  • You should familiarize yourself with project 2025, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025

    The plan would perform a swift takeover of the entire executive branch under a maximalist version of the unitary executive theory

    This should be bigger news, but I guess with everything else going on it gets lost in the noise...

  • Well the tanks sold without congressional approval is legally questionable, but not like Congress is going to investigate him over it.

  • leave enemy soldiers an obvious escape route

    Was thinking about this leading up to the Ukraine war...
