It's your lucky day - I happen to run a post-rapture plant watering and pet sitting business - I'm sure as shit not getting raptured.

Everybody is just walking straight past the fact that capitalism has cucked us all badly enough that we're discussing the merits of drinking livestock products to save a few bucks?

Hold up - you don't have a solution, but you'll criticise people for doing what they can to keep the fascists out of power?

I agree with what you're saying broadly, but if you're going to wax ideological while you let the fascists win, you can fuck all the way off.

The issue is all signs point to them pivoting to AI and ad driven nonsense - they'll move on, but if the product goes to shit so will I. The rest is noise.

Importantly, they split the vote though.

They certainly made the GOP start caring about gun control if nothing else... They were also damn good with message discipline, and (unless I'm mistaken), did some great mutual aid.

Your boss isn't your friend

HR isn't your friend

The objective of both is to extract the most value possible from you while paying you as little as possible. If they can replace you with someone that'll do more for less, they will.

They might be nice people that say nice things, but the moment you become so much as a mild inconvenience, you'll feel the weight of the organisation bearing down on you.

Don't trust them. Ever.

The inequality is worse than it has been in over a century, people are living closer to the edge than ever, employers are taking the piss at this point, and climate change is beginning to sting. All this is to say that it's not just the workers feeling the pinch - it's the petite bourgeoisie too. That scares capital enough to arm themselves more, but not enough to start making concessions.

For many, yes - this kind of thing is a reason not to vote for someone where open fascism is a non-event. It's dumb, but it (kinda) works.

Answer the question, Rudolph Jitler.

What would reasonable Palestinian self-defence look like?

ITT: Bunch of people understandably blackpilled on the justice system.

They keep doing monstrous things and it makes them look like monsters?

Maybe stop doing those monstrous things.

Israel isn't looking to give up its mantle as the crybully champion of the world any time soon.

If justifiable self-defence by Israel looks like 40,972+ dead Palestinians (mostly civilians as we know) in response to 1,478 dead Israelis, what would justifiable Palestinian self-defence look like? I'll remind you that as a current or former member of the IDF, every Israeli adult is an enemy combatant.
