  • Interesting read.

    Even without the saltwater problem, drinking from the end of the Ganges sounds pretty bad considering how polluted that river is.

    I have a hard time understanding the mentality of people having kids while complaining, there's not enough fresh water.

    I suppose it's good that most of the local water supply here in ca comes from mountain snowpack melts.

  • That's entirely subjective and up to you, however, I feel like I should point out we're dealing with our own erosion of democracy issues in the United States as well.

  • When America was ‘great,’ according to data - Age, more than anything, determines when you think the nation peaked.

    Jump

  • Well now it all makes sense, they think making America great is reverting to the mentality of children.

  • I guess they'll just have to do research on the internet now, good thing there's no pornography on the internet

  • Gaming PCs and components look set to jump in price in the US as import tariff exclusions come to an end

  • The ccp stranglehold on electronics? Yeah I'm glad they're ruining that. At the end of the day, we might have a viable semiconductor business in the United States or in an allied country, which will leave us far better off.

  • These Teens Adopted an Orphaned Oil Well. Their Goal: Shut It Down. Students, nonprofit groups and others are fund-raising to cap highly polluting oil and gas wells abandoned by industry.

  • Oh did you receive $30 million from him too? 🙄

  • Trump is undoubtedly bad for the US, like a brexit that only lasts 4 years, (hopefully.) He destroys our international credibility and will leave an indelible scar on our international relationships.

    However, this statement doesn't make sense:

    I like Trump, Biden's gonna support Israel and all sorts of other enemies to us and so fuck him, we like Trump.

    Trump will give Israel a blank check, and he'll probably want to push the missile launch buttons himself if given the opportunity. He even recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

  • Biden plans to send $1bn arms shipment to Israel

  • Are you really suggesting that every asymmetrical war that is conducted successfully is genocide? O.o

  • Biden plans to send $1bn arms shipment to Israel

    Jump

  • Oct 7 literally is an act of genocide, see my post above. You're saying they don't have credibility because you don't understand what genocide is. This designation has nothing to do with body count.

  • Biden plans to send $1bn arms shipment to Israel

    Jump

  • Oh, I forgor, the United Nations is Hamas now.

    Oh no don't forgor. They're not Hamas but they do exhibit significant anti-Israel bias.

    Three countries were on said commission of inquiry:

    Navi Pillay (South Africa), serves as chair, Miloon Kothari (India) and Chris Sidoti (Australia) serve as members of the commission

    Many more opposed their methods and conclusions:

    June 2023, United States and Israel joined 25 countries in condemning the open-ended nature of the UN investigation and "the long-standing disproportionate attention given to Israel in the council."

    But that's the UN for you, lots of scrutiny and condemnation of Israel, not a peep when Jews are ethnically cleansed from neighboring countries.

  • Sorry to invade your echo chamber with dissent. It must pain you to be reminded that not everyone agrees with you, that must be so hard for you.

    an occupying nation like Israel can not claim self defense when attacked

    Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005. A blockade is not an occupation.

  • If someone punches you to death, declaring they weren’t trying to kill you doesn’t make them any less guilty of murder.

    Actually, in the US it could. Intent is the difference between murder and manslaughter.

  • At least eight Israeli strikes on aid groups, says new report

    Jump

  • That doesn't make sense. I regularly interact with people who disagree with me.

  • It's almost as if words mean things and have specific definitions, especially legal ones. Feel free to criticize such behaviors with different accurate words for things you don't like.

  • Biden plans to send $1bn arms shipment to Israel

    Jump

  • If you're going to define your movement as anti-genocidal you should really have a firm grasp on what genocide is and who is committing it:

    Article II of the Convention defines genocide as:... any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

    • (a) Killing members of the group;
    • (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
    • (c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
    • (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
    • (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

    Hamas, what Israel has been clear they intend to destroy, is not a national, ethnical, racial or religious group. However, Jews/Israel/Israelis, what Hamas has been clear they intend to destroy, are. Therefore, legally Oct 7 was an act of genocide, and Israel's war on Hamas is not. Such a designation has nothing to do with body count.

    I support Israel because I oppose the genocidal. Binding their hands and preventing them from retaliating in self-defense only serves to support genocidal Hamas by keeping them in power.
