Israel practically organized Hamas to have an opponent easily disliked by western nations. They funded and molded it to the exclusion of more secular and leftist organisations like PLO. Hamas is not a problem for Israel, it’s a tool to allow them unlimited brutality on the Palestinian population. I know people on lemmy don’t want to hear this but when you look at what happened since the days when people like Rabin and Arafat were making headway in peaceful solutions that might have ultimately led to freedom, safety and dignity for everyone in the region.

The agreements they made werent perfect, they were stepping stones in the way to a better situation, and they were what could be eeked out in the existing situation. Of course Zionist extremists could not live with that. Never forget who killed Rabin.

They both do, it’s what narcism does.

If there was one funny thing Trump could do was weaponize the doj against Musk and get his companies seized in civil forfeiture. It certainly would be a win for the US, so he is not going to.

Ford might have been a bastard, at least he was a smart bastard who didn’t let the idea that someone might benefit from something that also benefitted him stop him. Which is a major problem with the current batch. And I know he was a fascist. He was bad, somehow people strive to be worse.

Seems to be the case for a lot of industries, even if not as blatant. The economy thrives when people have the means to buy products. You can make production as cheap as you want, you’re not making much profit if only the 1% can buy them.

The more Reddit sells out and agressively bans people, the more will find their way.

What? Somebody thought he would stop his habit after taking office? Also when in Rome, get high with the Romans… I don’t think Trump even switches on without the right substances.

What a weird thing to say.

A literral fascist isn’t Hitler or Mussolini. There are criteria for determining if a movement or person is fascist. I find Eco 's checklist, which is displayed at holocaust musea, so it has some general acceptance, quite handy.

If you can’t call litteral fascists what they are there is a serious fascist problem going on.

I admit that at some point in Januari someone stated Musk was going to face serious consequences for what he did and I replied that he wasn’t unless there was an assassin willing to shoot through a toddler. I didn’t say we need to find such a person, or someone should shoot Musk or anything like that. Just implied that he wasn’t going to face any kind of consequences of any legal nature. I’d barely count that as “glorifying violence” You can see much worse statements on Reddit every day.

It is nice here, but many of the subs that interest me have very little traffic compared to the ones on Reddit. I do hope they grow.

I feel you man, got permabanned as well. Apparently you can not say mean things about Musk, Trump and Israel there, sooner or later it’s going to be glorifying violence, and after that they sic a report bot on you or something and you get banned for multiple breaches of the rules, which are entirely ficticious (the breaches, not the rules). Afaik fascists got me banned so they’ve got one less voice calling out their bullshit.

Aside from hurting Trans people, these things hurt women both those afab or not, and given the numbers of each group they end up hurting way, way, way more cisgender women. So every opportunity, every interview with Rowling, every comment on a tweet to her should be “What happened that made you hate women this much?”.

I mean it’s sad that she can’t love the trans, but if that was just a prrsonal dislike, ok everyone has barely rational likes and dislikes, can’t be helped. But to make that public, and then to go to these lengths, to sacrifice the safety of all women on the altar of that hate and fear, that is truly sick and sickening.

So the question is “JO, WHY DO YOU HATE WOMEN???”

Because because of her hate mongering, women are getting in trouble and often beat up for going to the bathroom, get humiliated by having to “prove” they’re “real” women to pushy agressive bigots. I fully expect one day to lose my job and end up in jail for beating up some such asshole who thinks they should humiliate my wife or daughters that way.

Oh come on, that is “the quest for the holy Grail” and you know it!

Don’t worry about it, you will be able to get vaccines developped in Europe, Asia or Africa. The tarriffs will no doubt be minimal. Besides if you don’t test for it you don’t have any known deaths from that.
