That wasn’t the best video to highlight the horrific abuses. Can you link the other ones?

That’s IDF propaganda. Oh, what? It’s what the Palestinians are reporting? Should be taken at face value, then.

Who’s deflecting? Your claim went beyond that Israel is arming factions in Gaza which oppose Hamas. You claimed there is no civil war. That claim presupposes that the current fighting is only between Israel and Gaza, not between factions within Gaza.

My position is that outside groups are funding sides in the civil conflict, but those conflicts transcend a battle of Israel vs. Iran.

The racist side is the one that thinks Palestinians all think the same way, and that only Israelis are the source of any conflicts between Palestinians.

And Iran backs Hamas. That doesn’t mean there aren’t disagreements amongst Palestinians that lead to Arab on Arab violence. They do have free will over there, too.

Do you realize that Palestinians are not a monolith with no disagreements? Yet you expect the Israelis (including Arab Israelis, apparently) are behind the in-fighting. I suppose Israel promoted the Hamas takeover of Gaza too.

The Jews are behind everything!

She and I started dating, and she’s had a lot less time for making Fediverse friends since starting her new job.

That was supposed to read “mime” instead of “mine.” Thanks, autocorrect.

Mime is money.

This is a legal insurrection.

According to a moron on oxy.

It’s good to see Fediverse people actually supporting paying for something. Sometimes I think they want everything for free.

Two kingdoms of life vs. one species.

15% of Earth’s biomass vs. 0.01%.

It’s odd to call it a peace agreement. You’d think it was between India and Pakistan with that terminology.

Under capitalism, companies do what their owners want them to do. The owners can choose to try to grow, to shrink, to sell, or to close.

Publicly owned companies have shareholders, and the shareholders usually want the company to grow so their investment grows. Shareholders can have other values, but anyone can become a shareholder.

Under non-capitalist systems, the government might own some or all companies. Then the companies do whatever the party in power wants. The party in power probably doesn’t have time to run all the companies, so they give some level of independence. They can reign that back whenever they like.

The most common motivation in non-capitalist systems is probably greed and growing personal wealth of party leaders via corruption under that system. Luckily, the people can vote in a different party and/or protest against party corruption except in all real-world cases, where that is banned or suppressed.

Trump will let us know he hardly knew Morris in a little bit.

Dumb-dumbs fell for bullshit propaganda because it made them feel better. Have you talked to Trumpers? They’re people of the land, the salt of the earth.

You can tell them they’ve been misled and they will get very upset with you.

It takes willful ignorance to still want to vote for Trump, and I’m afraid if we had an election in November they would probably do it again. Next year we will see how many want to vote for Trump’s enablers.

It’s a war zone. Independent verification doesn’t depend on the news outlet being verified. It’s access by the outlet doing the verification.

The second amendment gives us the right to assassinate our leaders?

Is there precedent for that? Several Presidents have been assassinated, and I believe all of the assassins were killed or prosecuted or both.

Dictator Mobutu Sese Seko overthrown by Laurent Kabila.

Laurent Kabila assassinated.

Laurent’s son Joseph becomes corrupt leader.
