"Unless Trump wins and we get rid of the mountain of smothering regulations (that have nothing to do with safety!) humanity will never reach Mars. This is existential."
  • lmao I'm so fucking glad he outed himself to a much wider population as a lil' ol' not-smart weirdo with... y'know... everything he's done recently

    Still not ideal omori-furious, but at least fewer people at work will repeat this to me as a serious claim, and those who do with less enthusiasm on average

  • US leaves Hurricane Helene survivors behind while funding Israel’s genocidal war. As the death toll from the storm climbs to 204, Congress has made no efforts to secure more disaster relief funding.
  • I hadn't even considered how jarring the political switch to antisemitism will be. Dems through a lens of nauseatingly misused left-adjacent points, and Reps with more overt racism and exciting language. If the NYT runs an article called "Were the Alt-Right right about Israel?" I'm putting my fucking head right in the lathe next

  • Significant Hezbollah military retaliation to Israeli aggression
  • That's a fair point

    I had meant purely that I didn't recall a Hezbollah retaliation as wide scale as this before now. Clearly they're being intentionally provoked, and are not in any sense the aggressors here.

    What do you think is a better way to say it? I will edit

    Edit: I just made it super academic and it fixed it as far as I can see.

    Israel’s military continues to bombard Gaza as Hamas sends a delegation to mediated truce talks in Egypt’s Cairo.

    Israel kills 71 Palestinians across Gaza as truce talks resume in Cairo

    I am convinced that Israel has realized that it can't survive a drawn out conflict, and will endlessly provoke literally all of it's neighbors until things have escalated to the point that the US feels the need to properly enter the fray.

    Edited: Bad wording on my part in the first one. I'm just tired - not awful

    you are antisemitic if you don't think the National Guard should be called up to murder peaceful student protestors
  • The word "antisemitism" has lost all meaning.

    They're pretty explicit in talking about the word, not the concept. Nobody here is saying antisemitism, the concept, doesn't exist or isn't important, but that the signifier less and less frequently refers to the actual concept of antisemitism.

    I think you might just be arguing at cross purposes. Original post was borderline a purely linguistic observation, but you're talking about the underlying phenomenon.
