In my younger years, I knew many people who killed others.

What’s more than that, chatbots use those words because writers use those words. That’s journalist vocab. And bots were trained on articles and written speech. I think you’re right, people just weren’t reading anything.

And who exactly are these leaders working on behalf of? Because it sounds like this absolutely dogshit deal favors the Russians and gives them everything they want. They’re holding Ukraine at gunpoint and threatening them to accept a very unfavorable deal. With the Russians beside them.

Sorry to tell you, but international borders absolutely are hallucinations. Grant you, not hallucinogenic, but they’re absolutely flights of fancy.

No one is coming to save us. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.

The two butt plugs should be self explanatory

“Showing video of our actions is blood libel”

Why does this type of bald faced deflection still work enough that they can keep doing it

But this kind of sounds exactly like the rationale these tech bros use to claim they know more than everyone and “these plebs just don’t understand”

Mainly my music. I’ve long thought about a dumb phone to avoid gps tracking everywhere as well as the spyware built in and the needless looking at it all the time. But music and podcasts need to come with me wherever I go. So I’d be carrying something akin to a smart phone around anyway. Doesn’t really side step the problem effectively.

Well I dunno your tastes, but some newer music that isn’t shit (I’m an album listener myself, so I judge by the whole album):

Black MIDI - Hellfire

Adult Jazz - Gist Is

Billy Woods - all three of his newest (one is under “Armand Hammer”, called “we buy diabetic test strips”, the other is “maps,” probably the most widely accessible, and the newest is Golliwog)

Shellac - To All Trains

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Boltcutters

KNOWER - KNOWER Forever

Those few albums span some genres and should cover a lot of tastes. I can add some more if you’re interested, those were just off the top of my head

There is so much music today. To say new music sucks is wild

No you’re just stupid or intentionally misunderstanding because either you’re a troll or your argument is so backwards and rotten that you can’t refute the point with anything legitimate

See, this is where the vitriol crosses the line into wrong. Oppose the genocide, speak out against Zionism. But when you start saying shit like this, you’re just as wrong as anyone who says they dont trust, say, Black people to handle their food.

It’s attempting to break an illegal and genocidal blockade of necessary survival items. The fact that the blockade exists means they should respect it?

Look what they’ve already done: started thousands of conversations about it. It’s already mountains more than you or I have ever done to help the people of Gaza. Your opinion is ridiculous. But it also shows how necessary these actions are.

What in the world kind of thinking is this? Yeah, there’s a war going on and Russia is targeting civilian centers and are clearly the invading aggressor, but that is not on the same level as the full blown genocide happening in Gaza/West Bank. The fact that they could easily get into Ukraine and deliver food…means they don’t have to. What.

There is an actual famine happening in Gaza. Starvation is being used as a weapon of war and attrition against the entire civilian population. There are only upsides to them trying this: either aid gets through and some people survive a little longer, or it doesn’t, and it proves to the entire world—that happens to be sitting on their hands over the genocide—that this is real and needs way more attention and pressure. What don’t you understand about that?

That’s not true necessarily. Of course they are highlighting the cruelty of the blockade, but I’m sure they’d be very happy to get in and see what’s happening—as well as distribute some food

Who? What did they say about it

I’m saying it’s literally a free VPN. But they’re q company. If they’re offering you free shit, you’re the product.

How the fuck else do you think a for profit company is offering free tech?
