It’s not whataboutism if it is literally just as bad and also true. That would be more commonly known as “accurately comparing them”.

Because America is funding the other side of the war. It really puts a damper on criticism of a country at war when the people they’re fighting are primarily funded by people doing the exact same thing.

This would be a lot more meaningful if America didn’t implicitly condone the actions when done by Israel or anybody on our side. As is, it simply looks hypocritical for Americans to criticize a war crime, while we take no issue with it elsewhere.

Where was the MSM calling this amove used by terrorists when Israel Triple Tapped an aid truck? It makes us look stupid at best and like outright liars at worst.

Something tells me that Israel isn’t going to start “leading with the facts” now, out of the blue. The facts do not make them look good at all. Any reporter who uses that line should be dismissed as fake news. Are we allowed to sue newspapers for lying?

What is a lawyer supposed to do if the client lies under oath? Surely A/C priveledge prevents the lawyer from testifying himself that they’re lying.

If it’s a murder case, you should tell your attorney if you’re guilty, right? But then you can still plead not guilty, and your attorney can’t rat you out. So how is this different?

Well yeah, they target Hamas, and all the journalists are Hamas. Totally different.

Well also because it’s never been independently verified, and the main guy pushing it, Adrian zenz, is a far right con artist.

Yeah, CNN is far from reliable, probably shouldn’t be an approved source. Fox news is also often correct, doesn’t mean we should be citing them rather than the source they used in the first place.

I’m glad somebody is doing something useful while the dying American empire flounders around doing genocides.

This only works if you’re America, and even then only somewhat. Everybody else has to fear other places not valuing their currency as highly.

If it was a corporation, absolutely. It’s part of the risks they’re taking on as a business. But for a government, which is by definition non profit, you kinda have to mandate return of the funds. Otherwise the government as a whole could collapse.

Raccoons and corvids? What, in the 30 minutes after they defeated the crabs, but before they evolved into crabs themselves?

Wouldn’t I have to know where stars usually are in order to know the time at night? With the sun all I need is to know which is west vs east.

Yep, kinda like how adding more lanes to a freeway doesn’t help traffic meaningfully. You can’t fix systemic issues with short term solutions. Write housing policies that work, and you won’t even need more homes. There are millions of empty homes in America right now. The problem is capitalism

I think immolate implies yourself. In dark souls at least, the spell Immolation can’t set anybody except yourself on fire. And it looks like other latin words that mean Self.

Everyone knows bullets cant kill fire, it’s not a ghost!

If only we had a budget that allowed literally infinite spending on the military… Where could we possibly find the billions of dollars to pay for military needs?

If you outlaw firearms, only outlaws will have their arms on on fire

I bet this is netflix’s fault for showing firebenders in avatar burning people alive. These impressionable youth in the Air Force can’t tell reality from fiction, y’know.
