Only if it is identifiable information.

That is an original quote from Tito, the dictator of Yugoslavia, directed at Joseph Stalin

How is liking spreadsheets connected to autistic spectrum disorder? (Im being genuine here)

They remember to care once the institutional boot of liberal democracy hovers above them.

Not a single Palestinian stood against the events of Oct 7th

I assume that you just don’t count palestinian diaspora? Or do you just mean those living IN gaza?

25% is an abnormally large number considering the current techonological inability to the same thing as a human could. In my experience current “AI” is mostly useful for very specific tasks with very narrow guidelines.

I love asparagus soup, so probably that one.

I also stink, much like asparagus.

Seals can drown. They are mammals and as such don’t have gills. They may be able to hold their breath for a long time, but eventually they have to come back up to breathe.

You wanna know what I think?

I think they DON’T actually know, what this ultimately means. They only know that they want the undesirables gone. I 100% believe they want them gone with as little fuss and violence as possible.

The problem of impossibility hasnt quite broken through yet tho. But hey, they promised their voter base this already. So they have to pull through.

"What do you mean ‘no other country will just take them’ ? Welp… guess we have to designate an area in our country then. What do you mean ‘not in my backyard’? Mh… that one is understandable, we will have to increase security and prevent people from fleeing our designated area, and i guess we now have to tell our voters that there is no other solution and we have to do it in someone’s backyard.

No, no, this isn’t starting at all to look like a concentration camp. That’s preposterous! Anyway, this shit is starting to become expensive. We can’t allow these people to leech off our state like this. We need to make them work in exchange for being allowed on our soil… And just look at them! They are breeding like rats and have created a shithole of criminality in that little exclave we put them in. We were right to seperate them from the normal population!

You guys… The costs just keep ramping up and this system ultimately doesn’t seem to work… no other country wants to help… We need to start thinking about a permanent solution to this problem…

Well, at least we kept our promise! We even did it with as little fuss and violence as possible. It’s not our fault, that that means a whole lot of fuss and violence anyway!"

This process has occured before, and not just in germany.

The Houthi rebels are attacking peaceful vessels that have nothing to do with this conflict. I personally fully support securing these shipping lanes.

If Iran didnt support the Houthis i would support them helpibg aswell. But still, there is such a thing as Freedom of navigation, so the iranian ship can go there. They just can’t provoke a conflict.

Maybe a Wheel of Time reference?

But the earth isn’t 71% water. Only its surface. So you can say the world’s surface is flat, which makes the joke not work as well.

My favourite: ‘geröntgt’ which is the second participle of ‘röntgen’ to x-ray someone. Never heard it pronounced correctly by a native speaker.

I dont know the video. Can you please elaborate?

I am not entirely certain this conflict helps Likud. I honestly think once the dust settles, they might get punished by the israeli public

I don’t know man. Everyone in my family that is politically active dislikes Fatah, especially Abbas, but they LOATHE Hamas. There are palestinian circles that curse Hamas for bringing about a second Naqba. It’s not as black and white as it appears.

It’s just that Gaza is a special case. It’s poor and miserable, hosting plenty fertile ground for extremist indoctrination. Have you ever tried arguing with someone from such a background about means of liberation and their justification? That’s a mighty complicated discussion.

I just got an idea:

Papal intercontinental Cruisade Missiles.

It’s not a good idea, mind you. Just AN idea.

It’s a bit more complicated than that. Palestine doesn’t have a strong democratic tradition to begin with. Additionally, Hamas is only governing Gaza, not the West Banks. Hamas also suppresses secular Freedom organizations. And ~50% of the people in Gaza wouldnt even be able to vote out Hamas since they are under 18. Then we have the case of Hamas indoctrination, which finds fertile soil in the impoverished and destitute Gaza youth.

All of that isn’t to say I support Hamas. I am quite vocal in my disdain for them. But Israel plays a significant part in their success. So does Iran. And let’s not forget that the religious right has been torpedoing a resolution aswell, not just the Jihadist organization Hamas. Rabin wasn’t killed by a palestinian hardliner.

The attacks weren’t perpetrated by a free Palestinian people or some recognized advocacy group, but by an extremist wing of the Muslim Brotherhood that has been pushed by Israel for decades.

It could. Not every ethnic cleansing has to be a Shoah for it to be bad
