Wat a sad life.
A mother who works two jobs and can’t sit through a movie without thinking about her kids is also sad, but at least she does it for something good

I rented a car, a Mercedes B class or something
Everytime I started it, it would ask me to sign up for some bullshit Mercedes service Half the features of the car were disabled due to requiring subscriptions
I will NEVER buy that car nor rent it ever again

Also especially if you don’t care that much about your workers safety. If human lives are just a bunch of statistics to you, things become a lot easier

- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 1 week ago:
Loads of reasons. It has (or at least had) protection from China who doesn’t want a Western nation at it’s border. It can wreck havoc on SK if invaded. It would cause loads and loads of casualties to invade.
In any case: The way SK is going now, all NK has to do is wait another 30-50 years and they can just walk in empty land, there.

Would they care much at this point? They’d lose that job anyways, it’s trump. At least they went out with their heads held high

Pretty much this for me too, only I already switched in 2002. It really wasn’t that hard leaving windows behind, even back then
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 3 weeks ago:
I’d say that it matters a whole lot as especially Jews ought to know better.
It also matter a lot because again it’s a religion directly feeding or being used as an excuse, for genocide. That is basically the one thing religion is really good for, making people feel okay about horrible actions
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 3 weeks ago:
Ehh…
The siege of Leningrad was about two major armies murdering the shit out of each other and the civilians
This is about a single country using its army to slaughter civilians. One is not the same as the other
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 3 weeks ago:
Sorry, but bullshit
Evil people do evil shit, but most people aren’t evil. If you want good people to commit evil deeds, you need religion
Take a look at just about all major evil events, religion was either the cause or was closely related to it or used as an excuse for the horrors
How many Israelis would be okay with mass child muder types genocides when you take away the “we are the chosen people from God” part?
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 3 weeks ago:
And what do you think will happen to pretty much all of them in one or two years time?
Come to think of it, i guess the US made a perfect system to quell protests; Just make it impossible for people to take time off work, nobody will be able to protest even your most sadistic fascist laws
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 3 weeks ago:
How about you stage a huge protest, and this time you don’t leave until Fuckwad McClowncar is out of the Whitehouse?
- Comment on Does anybody actually care that a dude chanted "Death, Death to the IDF" at Glastonbury? 3 weeks ago:
The difference is that the IDF is comprised of Jewish military personnel and for “some” reason, these days you aren’t allowed to criticize any actions from anyone with said heritage.
It’s stupid, really.
If you’re an asshole, I will call you an asshole. Being Jewish has nothing to do with that equation
Right now, the Israeli government and the IDF are engaged in a genocide. Period. Them being Jewish, I don’t care. Right now these fuckers are literally no different from the Nazi army and, you know, Nazis. The worst thing of all, i guess, is that the irony of Jews acting like Nazis is completely lost on these fuckers. If at least they’d realize what they have become, maybe it could baseball bat smack some sense into their heads, but no.
Criticizing a Jewish military officer for committing genocide is the same as committing genocide on Jews. Or something. I don’t know, don’t ask me, it just doesn’t make any sense.
I guess this can be best summed up with “fuck all religions” because at the core this is just religion being used yet again to fuck over some group of people." Without religion, most people suddenly aren’t so happy to blow up little children, but with?
Our God said its okay!" is all the excuse the Nazis needed and its the same excuse that the extremist Israelis use to support their child murderers.

In order to lick something at the very least it needs to be liquid, or better yet, solid.
Trying to kick hydrogen, with this in mind, will be the last lick you ever do in your life
- Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be? 3 weeks ago:
Those US nation wide protests that happened a few weeks ago did nothing. People already forgot about them. You’d neeto do that all day every day until trump is gone, hut that ain’t going to happen.
- Comment on A.I. Is Starting to Wear Down Democracy | Content generated by artificial intelligence has become a factor in elections around the world. Most of it is bad, misleading voters & discrediting elections 4 weeks ago:
I’m honestly thinking that the only answer to AI misinformation slop is misinformation about everything. Republicans post misinformation slop like there is no tomorrow. Do the same thing back. It’s quick, easy, cheap. Keep AI videos coming about how immigrants are saving puppies in the US or something.
It’ll grind the internet to a point where almost everything is lies and bullshit and there will only be a very few places left where actual useful information can be found (hello Wikipedia!). This’ll happen anyway but this will speed up the process.
With this, soon enough nobody will believe anything anymore. It’s sad that we’re there but that’s the world we live in now.

I think the entire concept is just a need to feel special.
If you like certain cultural aspects of a culture that isn’t yours, then just add them to your life. You like dreadlocks but you’re not black? Get dreadlocks, who cares! It’s just that having dreadlocks doesn’t make you black, just like practicing karate doesn’t make you Japanese.
Just saying that you’re black and then talking about how opressed you are sounds like a family guy episode. Just don’t. You’re not black (or white or whatever race you want) and you’re only doing it to get attention
