Maybe but I feel I’ve made it worse sometimes too.

There’s a couple sayings. ‘The smart man sounds like crazy man to the stupid man’ and ‘You can’t win an argument with an idiot’.

As complex as it can be, it usually boils down to that or you just find out they’re rich, selfish, like control, and love schadenfreude.

I’m sorry but I’ve heard Jews and Palestinians outside of Israel complain about Hamas specifically for a very long time and I can’t believe they genuinely want peace because they still have hostages, considering Israel said this conflict will end when the hostages are released many times now and offered to make Palestine a sovereign state seven times over in the past for Hamas to reject it.

Israel is angry at Hamas like they never have been before and it seems to me Hamas only wants peace now because they’re losing and are afraid.

My bad, I thought it was temporary not lasting.

That said I stand by my doubts that this will end without total annihilation on either side. Israel can’t forgive Hamas or Hamas Israel without either side literally changing theirs beliefs and values which ain’t happening.

It’s like October made Israel snap and escalate their mindset to, ‘this isn’t over until they are, no more peace only war’ which is where Palestine has been since the 40s.

I consider the current conflict having started in October 2022 because a lot of these ceasefires feel more like a pause in a war not the end of a war. Wars end with leaders dead or lasting agreements.

Yes, yes, idk how many cam phones are in Gaza these days but imagine far fewer than before.

Don’t forget this latest conflict started because Hamas raided an Israeli concert for hostages and were always throwing so many missiles at Israel, Israel invented and built the most advanced missile defense system in the world.

Here’s how I see it, Jews shouldn’t have been given Israel after WW2 because it was already settled but it happened. When the Jews won the wars to hold Israel, the Palestinians never accepted defeat and because of it, never made peace. Because they never made peace and have lived for vengeance for decades, they are now doomed. The smart ones left, and will likely be all that is left of Palestine when Israel is done.

Is this just? No, and what really doesn’t help is both people think god is on their side when it seems to me, god isn’t with either of them.

Not necessarily, they just want to make Europe white again and aren’t very professional.

After seeing how Hamas is torturing and executing Palestinians who protest against them, while Israel is bad they may as well share responsibility for this most recent conflict.

The value of Reddit is the content which it is able to create. If users aren’t free to create content, there is not value.

Yes. As an American I can’t help but think of how difficult and expensive the war on terror was to wage and how not only did we lose but we may have inadvertently help start a global jihad in the future we pissed off the Iranians so bad.

Not to mention how Germany failed to get the UK in WW2 and how without the literal mafia we’d have not taken Sicily and gained a solid foothold in Europe. Even China is hesitant to invade Taiwan and they wrote the fucking art of war.

I think a lot of tyrants like the idea of invasion until they realize how fucking expensive it is to move war equipment across water and that unless you have the actual Mandate of heaven and earth behind you so to speak, you won’t have competent people with you. Trump doesn’t have that, he didn’t win the popular vote or by a large margin which is what the mandate requires, half his voters hate Musk, and he’s driving away more smart people than attracting. Doesn’t matter how effective and coercive your spy network is, takes hearts and minds to win long term.

My bad for misreading that. You aren’t wrong there. I’m telling them to look out for their communities, learn useful wartime skills, and to make friends. Being sweet doesn’t save you from tyranny, strength does.

I don’t like Kentucky but damn do they have good state motto.

Yes, you moved to Canada to get away from the US. And yea, a bit.

There’s only one of you and you do not seem like a general to me, just a pissed woman.

It’s not but it is for society to be strong and work well just as it men’s duty to make sure women are doing well too. Seems to me you wanna break the societal contract because you’re a sexist feminist.

Congrats, I hope that works well for you. Sure you left the US shitshow but if you think Canada isn’t one too just wait. Everywhere has shit, humans shit, it’s nature.

Yeah don’t put effort where it isn’t reciprocated that’s a bad deal for men too.

Then you get Trump…. See what I mean? Oof.

No the plan is for you to get that you are a part of society and have a civic duty to treat your people well, that almost half of society is men, and you seem to think it’s okay to discount them. It’s not okay.

I was gonna say no at first but you know what? Yes, in regards to not treating them like shit or passively discriminating against them is your civic duty to ‘fix’ them and keep them from being awful like it is men’s duty to look out women.

Furthermore to be abundantly fucking clear because for some reason not a lot of women get this or think this what I mean, I am not saying go fuck incels, I’m saying what goes around comes around and the more you disempower and shit on men the more extreme the reaction against you will be.

We can’t even start fucking public online groups without some feminist trying to shut them down while y’all are circlejerking about hating men. That’s a big problem.

Yes but that’s not what that was about. It’s like I was trying to warn them, if you don’t treat men better the men will find a way to be treated better with or without your support and if they don’t have you to support them and keep them from their worst selves they may just choose to fuck everything up. History repeats itself.

For real. Transparency makes this work much better than otherwise.

Could last a while with unity but yes.
