Okay, thanks for the information. That’s…obviously dumb as fuck and simply adds to Israel’s crimes. Didn’t Nestle try to pull some similar shit somewhere?

I agree the context makes the entire existence of a siege unusual here, I’m just pointing out that water and food deprivation have been used as tools of war for forever. The language used in the article—the “weaponization of water”—is meant to put a shiny new coat of paint on something ancient and make people think this is some new diabolical tactic Israel has invented on its own and that no one prior to them was barbaric enough to think of it. That’s what’s garbage journalism here.

Again, not defending Israel, just trying to point out sensationalist manipulative tactics on the part of this media outlet.

Source? It doesn’t say anything like that in the article. It mentions that 30% of Gaza’s water is purchased from Israel, but that’s hardly claiming that “all rainwater” belongs to Israel.

Not trying to defend Israel’s actions here, but let’s keep claims fact-based.

“Okay, now throw a straight punch at me.”

Christ, these headlines. What Israel is doing is abominable, but it’s nothing new. These are siege tactics and they’re practically as old as war itself.

I agree the video is cringy AF, but I don’t have a problem with the company demanding its employees return to working in the office rather than remotely. There are a whole host of tangible benefits (for both companies and employees) from coming into work and I don’t see a problem with a company insisting on it. There are some industries and/or jobs in which remote work is probably fine, but most organizations benefit more from having people come into a shared workspace.

I like your memes, but this is a dick response. You could have just not answered, no reason to go out of your way to be an asshole.

Fernandez’s former boyfriend.

This is an unfortunate fact (that he’s gay) that the Right will focus on to further confirm their delusion that non-hetero people are likely to be pedophiles.

You give off strong “I pick fights with strangers on the internet over nothing to alleviate my boredom” energy.

To be fair, ducks are pretty dumb.

Yeah, he’s never going to willingly pay that bill. A court will have to order the money taken from him.

No, I specifically said I’m not advocating that, despite the temptation.

Truly, you are a bastion of intellect.

God damnit, I just got this song out of my head last month. Fuck.

Pretty sure they just draw complex pictures of bridges all day.

Seriously, once you’ve got a dictator, your political opinions don’t matter. This is what I keep trying to explain to the communists on this site, but they can’t get past their corruption-free utopian delusions to recognize that China, Cuba, Laos, and every other country that has gone full communist has succumbed to corruption in all the ways they claim a NEW communist country wouldn’t. Capitalism may not be the answer, but Communism certainly isn’t, as demonstrated by history.

I don’t know if you want to know, but they define it in the article if you care to read it…

Terrible headline. Makes it sound like Biden is chickening out of something in New Hampshire when the reality is that a Republican campaign to cast him as unable to win the state failed. So he’s “set to avoid” it, because the smear campaign failed.

Post less godawful clickbait, please.
