America doesn’t have Gympie Gympie trees.

Spoken like someone that hasn’t paid attention to the supply chains of places like Walmart.

We already have command economies. They exist and are functional. The owners are simply siphoning away the surplus value.

backups in the 2 times in your lifetime that such corruption actually occurs.

What are you even talking about here? This line invalidates everything else you’ve said.

I didn’t mean follow as in Twitter. I meant follow as in pay attention to them and the stories they work on.

The Lever.

Drop Site News.

Don’t follow news sources. Follow journalists.

It was an insult, too. Different times.

That I’m still alive.

Accusing someone of having too much semen.

It was a thing.

John Adams accused Alexander Hamilton of having such an excess of semen that all the brothels in the city couldn’t help him.

This forum is all the better because it doesn’t have genocide justifying fascist scum on it.

You didn’t say anything that would make anyone think. You posted rants about how ignorant people who responded to you were while ignoring not just their valid points but all of their points.

You are a failure morally. You’re also a failure at arguing. You wouldn’t convince anyone that didn’t already agree with you in the first place. If you’re posting with the hope of having any impact on the minds of others I would suggest you don’t even bother. You’re just wasting everyone’s time.

They’re literally quoting you and responding to the literal quote.

You just don’t like what they’re saying.

I just discovered my neighbor is a moonie, and proudly described himself as such.

I was surprised as I thought it was a derogatory term for them.

I use posteo.

If you’re thinking of using your own domain, I would suggest using forwardemail.net

I think you meant xmpp

They weren’t.

Google runs it’s own scans against domains.

Yes.

I made the mistake of naming my emby instance https://emby.example.com

On emby, if you don’t have a session cookie, it opens on an authentication page.

I’ve had Google label it as a mitm attack and get labeled malware three times. It gets fixed in a day or two upon review, but all major browsers block it during that time.

Well, ackshually…

Dogs are much more skilled at reading human body language and communication.

Nothing.

I understand climate change, how fast state transitions happen, that I’m in my 40’s and have already seen the climate change in every place I’ve lived.

I also know that the atmospheric carbon is higher then it has ever been during every other mass extinction event.

And I’m aware that we haven’t even been able to slow the rate of increase of how much yearly carbon we put out.

I know times like these seem scary, friend, but it is about to get a lot worse.

I have the moral belief that genocide is wrong.

I use a more strict definition of genocide than the ICJ: Any government that intentionally blocks food, medicine, and potable water to a population it considers problematic is a government intentionally committing genocide.

Again, that is a more strict definition then the ICJ uses.

Never again meant for everyone.

That’s cause they are a Nazi. Take a look at their apartheid justification in their comments.

I apologize for the accusations of lying and bad faith arguments.

If you actually want to learn about the history of the area, these are good starts:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionism

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1936–1939_Arab_revolt_in_Palestine

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sykes–Picot_Agreement

The long and short of it is that the British promised the Arab’s self determination, and then broke the promise to give the land to Zionist immigrants mostly from Europe who absolutely stole the land from the indigenous people, with terrorism being one of the tools used. See the Irgun, Heganah, and Lehi

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lehi_(militant_group)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haganah

Fun fact: The first Israeli Prime Minister, Menachem Begin, organized kidnapping operations for the Irgun before the establishment of Israel. He was also in charge during the massacre of Deir Yassin.
