Once again demonstrating your inability to tell the difference between the two

Is there a data hoarding community on Lemmy or is this basically it?

Or apartheid South Africa, Nazi Germany, West and East Germany, Yugoslavia, South Vietnam, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire, the USSR, etc. Countries change all the time. Normal people don’t care they just keep on living their lives. They’re just lines on a map. It’s weird people don’t understand this.

Learning about that now listening to Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History. Didn’t expect the episodes to be so long with how highly recommended it was lol.

Honestly she’s the only other one I can think of.

Oh ya, for sure. I get that and not taking refugees isn’t great and sucks. Still, they may be doing it for selfish reasons, but opposing the genocidal state of Israel materially is still better than arming them, like the US is doing, or doing nothing but stern words, like most of the rest of the world is doing.

If two groups claim a territory at the same time, and both have lived there on and off for a few thousand years depending on the activity of dozens of wars. Who exactly has the right to it?

That’s why I support a one-state solution. They can coexist peacefully and have in the past before the more aggressive revisionist Zionist movement started popping up. Jewish people were better off in the Ottoman Empire than the rest of antisemitic Europe for large periods of time. Plus, they’re doing fine in the US. That’s proof enough that ethnostates aren’t needed. It’s just an excuse for Europe to not deal with their own antisemitism.

Doing nothing has gotten them killed, too. Look at the West Bank. Look at the March of Return. Doesn’t Palestine have a right to defend themselves?

Also, there are tons of Palestinians refugees. 1.9 million have already been forced to flee their homes in this conflict, and there are 2.4-5.6 million from previous ones. They mostly go to Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt.

Maybe they’re helping Palestine because they don’t want tons of refugees? Israel is determined to ethnically cleanse millions of citizens and it makes sense that none of the surrounding countries want to deal with that. The best thing for their self-interest, and luckily ethics in general, is to stop Israel’s continuous genocidal campaign.

You could easily go back and watch the first two after Romulus. No need for homework.

I still liked Romulus, but it’s definitely despite that eye rolling line.

Does Israel bombing a suburb and killing dozens of innocents not count as a catastrophe already?

To me, that’s kind of good news, if that means essentially only one place is building new coal plants and it’s the same place that’s building a ton of new solar plants and EV’s, too.

Ya this sounds like a pretty sweet gig.

How is she not super spoiled from being raised with this kind of life?

What do you do when she’s in one of her down moods?

Did they? They controlled its borders, air space, water, power, trash, money, trade, food, etc. They still occupied the space. They had guns pointed into it and would snipe people who walk near the edge or throw things into it. Every now and then soldiers would go in for some reason or another. They had policies to control the number of calories that went in to keep it down to the bare minimum. It was an open air concentration camp, not sovereign territory.

Palestinians are for a two state solution, but Israel keeps trying to use the deals to take more land. The latest one involves taking the land that’s on their Egyptian border and making them disarm itself. What kind of state doesn’t have control over its borders and can’t defend itself? These deals are given in bad faith. It’s why they keep taking land, so it’s impossible to have a contiguous state. Israeli officials have admitted this multiple times.

I’m guessing you have no idea what Israel has been doing to Palestine for the last 70 years? Israel has been killing natives and taking their land way before October 7th and the answer isn’t making it harder for Palestinians to defend themselves.

From the guy who said you’re “not a real Jew” unless you vote for him because of Israel.

Conspiracy theorists have still been spreading the lab leak theory without proof for awhile now because China is the current scary boogeyman. I get that there was lab there studying these diseases, but guessing isn’t how science works, and the wet markets have been known to be a possible source of diseases for a long time now by scientists. I remember warnings about this scenario coming up awhile ago.

Lot of diseases come from China probably for similar reasons: it’s crowded and close contacts with lots of animals. No one thought the 1956 flu could be a lab leak, or SARS, or H7N9, etc. People just have conspiracy theories about this one because it turned into the biggest pandemic of them all, which is just the roll of the dice of all the diseases coming out of there.
