  • I have some coworkers who talk about it all the time at the office. I assumed that though it may not be as popular as Game of Thrones, there are lots of people that liked it.

  • Reminds me of that big racist guy in Disco Elysium.

  • It was still a pretty shitty deal for Palestinians. Israel still kept control over their borders, air space, and waters. It didn't address the settlements, it was meant to undermine their attempt for a state, it didn't address refugees. And even though it was a terrible deal for Palestinians, it was still too much for the Israeli right-wing. They do not want peace or true Palestinian sovereignty, and never have for all those decades.

  • Can't watch a movie past 10pm without my neighbors complaining. I can't have people over for a party. God i hate having shared walls. Never again if I can help it.

  • Even I agree with that. And I was one of those annoying guys screaming ACAB and shit. I really wish that didn't end up becoming the main slogan, because I really agree with the idea behind it. It's like if pro-choice people were framing their own position as pro-killing babies on their signs and stuff.

  • You're welcome! I do, too lol

  • Alan Moore was pretty prescient apparently

  • That's what defund the police is about. It's about shifting the funding to other sources, social workers and such, that can handle calls like these. It relieves police of having to deal with stuff like this, too.

  • It's like a different world. They have different slang, music tastes, different types of friend and school drama, physical energy levels, at a different stage of their life, etc. I agree, what do you even talk about?

  • I was making a joke about right-wingers calling every slightly social, pro-labor, feminist, or anti-racist policy (basically anything that isn't taxes for the rich) "communist".

    They even called Biden a communist 🤦

  • Someone find him an instance! Is there a hiking one? What place is he from?

  • Wait are you talking about caring about the workers? Hm... Idk... Sounds like communism to me 😠

  • They're not our friends? It's the other way around. We've been helping Israel kill them and take their land for decades and decades. We're on Israel's side of every peace talk, pressuring Palestine to take horrible deals that isolates them and keeps them separated, covering Isreal when the UN tries to censure them for human rights violations and war crimes, selling them the bombs and weapons they use to kill Palestinian children and families, bomb their neighborhoods and hospitals, pretend we give a shit with a token of humanitarian aid that hasn't helped the bare minimum of calories they get, the majority of their water being poison, the extremely high unemployment rate, the constant buzzing sound of drones overhead that increases their stress and ruins their sleep, or the general oppressive apartheid state they live under and always while at the same time continuing to sell the tools of murder and destruction to Israel.

    Of course they're not our friends after all that. And of course after all that they are gong to do an armed struggle. An attack the scale of October 7th has only happened once, and it's the result of years of the deaths being way higher on the Palestinian side and there being nothing they can do about it. October 7th is the only time Hamas has barely touched Israel. Meanwhile, Israel has been killing all Palestinians (including civilians, not just Hamas) disproportionately for years and no one has done or said anything on their behalf. Even their peaceful marches lead to them dying or losing limbs and no other change. So what do you expect them to do? Just do the nice thing for us and die quietly? Cozy up to their oppressors? Holding Hamas against Palestine is like holding the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising against all Jews because " clearly they practice violence".

    I appreciate what you're saying about genocide bad, this is just all a response to the comment about them not being our friends. They would be huge friends of ours if we helped them get equal rights or integrate into a one state solution, but the US has never been as interested in that as they are helping Israel complete their mission of settler colonialism.

  • Agreed! It's like training a dog with pets lol.

  • Millions of them have been displaced. They're starving and dying every day. Disease is rampant. Tens of thousands are dead. They're running out of hospitals to use. Genocide isn't the kind of thing you can do a "wait and see" approach for. I get what you're saying, but people need to keep pressuring him. I hope no one takes this small victory as an excuse to stop.

  • Title

    Jump
  • They also didn't throw out the case which is what Israel was asking for, so that's good.

  • How do you not care about an ongoing genocide? Godamn people are so heartless. I thought we all said never again after the holocaust.

    EDIT: Admittedly, if you're not from the US or a country heavily supporting Israel, then there isn't a lot you can do about that, and I get tuning out a little.

  • "It has to be in the correct region of Germany."

  • Agreed. Zionism is more than just Bibi.
