Are you arguing gooners don’t have a problem?

Many people become addicted to pornography and yes it can wreck your mind and regular sex drive/habits just as any addiction can.

Isn’t blue sky made by the same people who made Twitter?

It makes sense that people who are leaving twitter because of Elons changes are nostalgic and see that the old Twitter people made a new one so they jump in. Basically name recognition.

(I have only used Twitter)

Joining the “not op” train since I have a different answer than the others: I was peak annoying/edgy “debate bro” atheist and I ultimately became religious again but for a different religion.

Can elaborate if you want, I just don’t want to risk going on an unprovoked tangent lol.

Hawaii has been calling for tourists not to come because it’s an exploitative industry iirc.

Realize that things wouldn’t have magically gotten better if the other right wing candidate won and either way you have to keep going if you ever want to actually have things be better.

Imagine it like cleaning your room as a kid. You thought your mom was gonna come and ask you to do it, instead your dad barged in and yelled at you to.

Does one feel worse? Yes, does that change the reality of the situation? No, either way you must clean your room.

Nice try Posadist

Not fall prey to eco-fash narratives on overpopulation.

Sees lemmy.world

Sees weird .ML obsession and conflation of victims fighting oppressors with their oppressors

Yeah, not surprised.

There are no good guys and bad guys.
2 groups of people who are neighbors and relatives and share a common heritage keep killing each other, mostly due to shitty rulers who have no interest in their peoples’ well-being.

Genocide isn’t bad? Palestine and Israel are just neighbors despite Israel being on land stolen by the British and Israel being propped up by western powers to oppress Palestinians?

You could say the same thing about almost any conflict.

2 groups of people who are neighbors and relatives ✓

Share a common heritage (European/German)✓

Keep killing each other ✓

Shitty rulers who have no interest in their people’s well being ✓

Seems like there were no bad guys in WW2/The Holocaust, because using power to oppress and conduct genocide isn’t what makes a bad guy apparently.

There are no “good guys” in a conflict between religious people.

So the people fighting everyday to stop the literal genocide of their people can’t be good…because they are religious?

People try to complicate it (not necessarily in this thread) because they want to provide excuses for supporting the genocidal bad guys or not fully opposing them.

The truth is simple, rhe ones actively carrying out a genocide are the bad guys.

The ones resisting it, even if you disagree with their other beliefs/methods, are currently fighting for the good cause, to stop the genocide of their people.

As for

but from what I know Israel was attacked and is responding and trying to get their hostages back.

History didn’t start on oct-7, though the media would love people to think so.

Gaza has been an open air prison living under an apartheid state for decades.

Ignoring that the entire strip is practically Israeli hostages, Israel has had far more Palestinian hostages held in Israeli prisons long before oct-7. A major reasoning for the Al-aqsa flood and taking of hostages was to trade those hostages for their own back.

Why?

The one downside is that none of my pants fit and I have to cinch them with belts.

Seems like you should intentionally incorporate some squats.

No excuse for walking around like a Hank hill in 2024 smh /s

I love whoppers, candy corn, dots, and circus peanuts…

Not if you constantly invent new things to do
