/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • Is every strike a double tap? Or was this one picked deliberately for some reason?

  • Did they double tap every building?

  • The double tap contradicts this. They waited for a response before hitting again, which implies eyes on the site.

  • It's important to me, a trans person, that I'm allowed to take my medicine, use the bathroom that aligns with my gender, and be addressed with my chosen pronouns. But I don't matter to you, I'm just a freak and the source of your problems.

  • There's an old saying in Tennessee - I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee - that says, fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.

  • Good thing we just started a war to paralyze global energy markets. That'll help!

  • ... do you think they aren't watching the targets they bomb?

  • There's four factions I can identify: the doomsday cult, who believe this is for the war of Armageddon; the nihilists, who don't really care about anything as long as their enemies suffer; the dying elders, who don't care what happens after they die; and the careerists, who are thinking longer term about their political future.

    So, three factions in favor of political suicide, one faction against it. Seems bad.

  • The first responders being civilian instead of military is a pretty strong clue. Also a bunch of parents and neighbors showed up, which wouldn't make any sense if it was a military target.

  • No, you're right, I mean Japan's goal was to eradicate the culture of the population already living on the island.

  • It was ruled by Japan for 50 years, they had a project to eradicate and replace local Taiwanese culture with Japanese culture. They imported around half a million Japanese settlers to set up their own little apartheid villages during this era.

  • No, they double tapped the school. Killed the children, then waited for first responders to show up to kill them too. It's either something cooked up by an AI or by a psychopath, there's not a lot of room for this to be an honest mistake.

    Also, there's this story.

  • I'd be willing to believe AI picked the target and no one is bothering to double check the targets it picks.

    But I'm also willing to believe this was an intentional act of terrorism meant to demoralize the Iranian people.

    Could go either way.

  • 18 miles one way is kind of tough as a bicycle commute, but I have a bigass 50v battery that makes it a lot easier.

  • Based

  • There's a joke about Gorbachev here somewhere but I'm not funny enough to figure it out.

  • Unlike your doomsday religion, which believes it is waging an apocalyptic war to immanentize the eschaton. 🤡

  • The country is under an economic siege war and there's constant meddling from CIA/Mossad to institigage color revolution. In the most recent protest we know that they were directly involved because they openly admitted it. They smuggled guns to people on the ground who then attacked police and military targets. This is not normal for a society either.

    That's the context in which Iran kills "protesters". It's far more complicated than you seem to want to acknowledge.

    But let's revisit this in a year and see if Iran is better off.

  • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group

    This one is especially spurious - should they leave the children in a warzone? Evacuating them is humane, hardly genocidal.

  • That has to be harder after they armed and then betrayed the Kurds in Syria, right?
