Well, letting everyone make their own definitions of "being a good person" does not seem to be working out very well right now... So it might not be the worst idea to at least give feedback when you're being a piece of shit or positively impacting other people's lives.
Not if it includes severance... :(
It is, but we should also examine why so many Japanese are fed up with tourists. People go there and act like assholes, interrupt people's commutes and disrupt their lives - all while extolling the virtues of the simple Japanese way of life.
They'll never understand anything. They'll plead ignorance in 10 years if we still have things like courts by then
Generally, and I do emphasize that, those who believe that "everyone should just do what they want" really just don't want their lives to be impacted by change. Which makes sense, since everyone doing what they want only reinforces the power structures that already exist in society.
Gay men, for example, usually have zero problems blending in as long as they don't get outed and don't "look too gay" (straight passing). There's a good reason why the RNC regularly crashes Grindr servers whenever it's hosted. And as long they can rail/get railed, then they don't want to upset the delicate balance of power in which they rail.
Oh no, someone used open source software for their own purposes, free of any monetary obligations or restrictions! Wait, that's the whole fucking point.
Probably not, because that's not how cognitive dissonance works.
Doesn't help that modern-day CS curricula don't really teach you how to develop. They churn out developers who know what a red-black tree is, but not how to set up a .gitignore.
Hey, shhhh. Don't turn your nose up at relocation assistance.
New plan? What was the old one, a fucking field trip?
They're convinced they're right regardless of what we do. You can't reason with people like that.
That's what fascism is about. Do not tolerate them, do not reason with them. Ban them and (if necessary) kill them.
It honestly might be cheaper to get a piece of shit phone and keep it squeaky clean for our overlords
A large part of this was them waiting a year for Israel to get back to them about that li'l old genocide they were carrying out.
From 7 October 2023 to 30 November 2024, several requests for information and access were sent the Government of Israel, as well as requests for information to the State of Palestine and the Ministry of Health in Gaza. The State of Palestine provided information and extensive comments on the report presented by the Commission before the Human Rights Council at its 56 th session. On 15 January 2025, the Commission submitted a request for information to Israel about ongoing investigations and accountability efforts (see section Impunity and Accountability, para. 147). No responses were received from Israel. The Commission has also not received from Israel any further information on violations and abuses committed by the military wing of Hamas and other Palestinian armed groups on 7 October 2023. The Commission has not received any information about prosecutions of members of Hamas and other armed groups for the crimes committed on 7 October 2023.
They also needed to bring witnesses to testify before the committee, which is a little difficult when people in Gaza can't even get food and drinking water.
Bonjour, bonsoir, bonuit?
Mango is really good and you might be able to use it for free with your library card if you're in the US!
Couple of problems there:
- The American population is not properly motivated. More than half of the adult population are not fit (mentally or physically) to fight anything or anyone. Now, if Canada invaded as an act of liberation, it might be a different story.
- You might get 15% of the police and 20% of the military to do what's right, but the problem is that the 85% and 80% of those are the ones who will retain access to weapons and ammo.
- You're acting like the only way to win a war is to conquer every single square foot of it, Civilization style. If Canada held NYC, DC, and maybe Chicago, for a month, they would win.
Palestinian envoy tells UN court Israel is killing Gaza civilians. Israel says it’s being persecuted
Part of the fascist playbook - your enemies are strong, but also weak and pathetic. You are strong, but you're also constantly under attack by the others.
