I’m gonna assume your argument is is good faith. You’re absolutely correct about all of it. It fucking sucks. But the other side is the the same if not even worse. The reality is that right now the choice is between Harris and Trump. One of those two options will be leading the US next year. Not voting for Harris means Trump will be the leader.

If you want to convince people to stop voting for Harris you need to argue why Trump leading the US next year is a better outcome for Palestine. I haven’t been able to find a reason.

Unfortunately, there is a downside to allowing Trump to win. It’s the trolly problem and yes I will help pull the lever that kills people to keep even more people from dying.

How to you find the energy to maintain a conversation like that? I know how to hold a “proper” conversation, it’s just so much work and the longer the conversation the stronger the brain fog becomes. I feel the life getting sucked out of my body.

Paralives is still going strong! It’s looking like it will be strong enough of a competitor to actually influence future sims developments.

Too late for thousands but in time for hundreds of thousands more.

You guys really need to work on reading comprehension. I never advocated for anything. All I said is that is if Israel believes their response to October 7th is fair, then it’s only fair that the same is done to them in return. That is the world they want to live in. I personally would never retaliate but my comment was not about how I would handle the situation so please don’t assume you know how I wish things to play out.

No idea how you jumped to that conclusion but okay.

So sick of hearing how bad October 7th was. We fucking get it by now. It changes nothing. Israel has proven itself to be far worse. If Israel believes escalation is the answer I’ll be more than satisfied to see them take that seriously and allow Gaza to bomb Israel for the next four months, systematic rape torture and execute the Israeli men women and children. After all this is their idea of justice so let them experience justice.

Edit: You guys really need to work on reading comprehension.

I don’t know about that, this seems right on par with biblical teachings. The God of the Old Testament arbitrarily commanded genocide against innocent men, women, and children justified only by eradicating “moral wickedness.” You can argue that the birth of Jesus brought a new era of peace and that the God of the Old Testament operated differently than the God of the New Testament but it doesn’t change the fact that the Bible is full of religious sanctioned violence and most Christians see nothing wrong with that.

This is the first I’ve ever heard someone say tech companies tend to lean left, or well, at least social media companies.
