At the very least, buying existing stock. If they want to build new ones I have no problem with that.

We need to shut the internet down for a few hours a day so everyone has no choice but to go talk to actual people
comment in response to post
He's so right but I'm not sure just educating people is effective enough. People resent being told by authorities in the field, for what reason I'll never understand. If there was a way to teach people by helping them learn to discover the facts for themselves I think we'd make more progress.

I think blame can be shared between actual Zionists in the Israeli government, Hamas, and the Ayatollah for the situation. All of those parties seek to escalate the conflict to take advantage of the chaos for their own gain.

Your inbox must look like this constantly, I don't know how you deal with it
comment in response to post
Yeah, me too...
comment in response to post
I have never denied that what Israel is doing right now is also a genocide. So, there goes your argument. I guess you think two wrongs make a right?
comment in response to post
Okay, if you don't even know anything about Arafat then you're just an idiot.
comment in response to post
Because they want to ethnically cleanse Jews from the Middle East. They have said so over and over and over. And you support that effort if you endorse the "from the river to the sea" rhetoric. That is an explicit call for genocide.
comment in response to post
You can't even help yourselves, can you? Everyone is a Zionist conspirator. You're all so fucking mental, how did you get this way?
comment in response to post
If you actually think that if Arabs controlled the region they'd allow Jews to live there peacefully, you are so delusional it's not even worth talking to you.
comment in response to post
Ethnic cleansing does not mean "kill all Jews," though that does seem to be the preferred method of the Arabs in the region. Are you sure you know as much as you think you do?
comment in response to post
It was not a genocide, it was an attempt at one. We know that because Arafat was pretty clear that he wouldn't accept anything less than Israel being wiped off the map. Anyone who says "from the river to the sea" is also explicitly calling for Israeli genocide.
comment in response to post
What does "end the Zionist project" mean? I can't imagine any interpretation of that that doesn't mean ethnically cleansing Israel. And even if YOU don't mean that, Iran and all the terrorist organizations they fund in the region DO mean that, so that's what you're supporting.
comment in response to post
Because I think you're making things up.
comment in response to post
Well everything about me is extremely anti-violence, so you can't be adhering to your own definitions too closely having called me an ultra-zionist. For what, can you tell me?
comment in response to post
That remains to be seen, but you're probably right. You should really consider not calling everyone a Zionist if they don't endorse ethnically cleansing millions of Jews from Israeli territory. That ship has sailed, we need to work on peace not solutions through violence.
comment in response to post
I almost said Dick Cheney but that's a little more grey because of how many people were involved with that. I don't think there's any billionaire that could get sympathy from me by dying regardless of the circumstances. That doesn't mean I want them to die, but if the trash is gonna take itself...
comment in response to post
Do you think more war is likely to make the leaders in Israel stop killing people in Palestine?
comment in response to post
If someone like Kissinger or Putin dies, yes I consider that a net good for the world. Whether assassinating them is moral or not is different, and much harder to answer. I think there is a line where it becomes moral, but it's basically impossible for the actor to know that in prospect.
comment in response to post
Well at least you're honest about it, I can respect that. If you can actually get me in one I'd be impressed, I put a lot of time and effort into learning about stuff and I care deeply about the people affected by the actions of power-craven monsters.
comment in response to post
I agree that in the wake of October 7th radical zionist factions gained power in Israel and have turned the conflict into an attempted genocide. Apparently nobody can apply any level of nuance to their analysis, for you it's just "Israel bad, destroy Israel." You know nothing.
comment in response to post
Russian airbases are not civilian population centers, what does this have to do with anything? Are you just fishing for a gotcha?
comment in response to post
The fuck kind of revisionism is that? It was explicitly an attempt at killing all the Jews in the Middle East. That's called genocide. They weren't "looking for equality," the second Intifada was directly in response to being OFFERED equality. You're so dishonest.
comment in response to post
There is no moral quality associated with not caring about other people's conflicts, don't let the far left bully you.
comment in response to post
You didn't ask? What a weird reply. Just fighting the ghosts in your head, huh?
comment in response to post
Both Intifadas were attempted genocides, do you even know anything about this conflict?
comment in response to post
So you think war is good, and innocent people deserve to be killed if they were born in the wrong country?
comment in response to post
My point was that it wasn't unprovoked, Iran isn't some innocent little lamb who just leaves Israel alone. In the interest of fairness, I would understand the motivations of an Iraqi of Afghani attack on US soil. That doesn't mean I don't condemn it. It's called nuance.
comment in response to post
What happened in 1948, do you even know?
comment in response to post
You are genuinely scum.
comment in response to post
ISIS is the only terrorist organization, that's the argument you're going with?
comment in response to post
What does that have to do with what I said at all?
comment in response to post
Can you list them all? I'm aware of the ones where they were retaliating, I'm not aware of any time Israel attacked Iran entirely unprovoked.
comment in response to post
Decades of failed peace negotiations largely driven by refusal to allow Jews to have a country. Arafat refused 98% of Palestinian land returned and security guarantees in favor of attempting another genocide. It's so weird how leftists always ignore the second Intifada.
comment in response to post
Iran has been funding the organizations that launch rockets indiscriminately into Israel for decades, are you aware of that?
comment in response to post
Being against Iran makes me a zionist? You're all so blinded by your hate
comment in response to post
I did not expect to see Maddox ever again. Got a little soy on us for a while there, but if you're speaking out against this regime I guess you found your balls again. Welcome back?
comment in response to post
You stated an opinion, not a fact. "Exercised restraint" is open to interpretation, and funding terrorist organizations to operate on your behalf does not suit my understanding of it. This post is filled with pro-Iran posts. They're one of the biggest sponsors of terrorism all around the globe.
comment in response to post
They genuinely want to ethnically cleanse Jews from the Middle East, and they aren't ashamed of it. The extreme left in America is disgustingly pro-violence.
comment in response to post
Are we stanning for states that sponsor global terrorism just because they're opposed to Israel now? That's so fucking unhinged lmao

Discord is a chat room, nothing like a forum. They yearn for the true height of online community, IRC clients.
comment in response to post
Well don't put your hand in one to test it! But as far as I know yeah, the spinny bits that mash the food up aren't going to pull your hand in and they only stick up a little bit from the very bottom. No blades either, so it'd just bludgeon your hand until you pulled it out.
comment in response to post
I just learned what that was yesterday lol
comment in response to post
It honestly gives me hope. Hitler's brownshirts were not overweight, entitled manchildren who think women having rights emasculates them. They were much worse, which makes our situation a much better position to fight from than the liberals of the Wiemar republic.
comment in response to post
Man, why can't my reps be this cool?

He's so defensive all the time
comment in response to post
It's not like the movies, you'd just bruise your knuckles a little unless you really jammed your hand in there. Maybe break a finger, but it wouldn't eat your hand like we've been led to believe lol
comment in response to post
There will be, when it's all over. It's not like we don't know who they are.
