A better question is if you can name a country that isn't "anti-foreigner" or don't have a significant % of the population that's anti-foreigner. This is a widespread problem everywhere you go, even supposedly "woke" European countries (especially those countries, really).

A few facts to keep in mind in the coming weeks regarding this deal:

• All of the "hostages" are really prisoners of war, everyone currently in Hamas captivity was an active duty IDF soldier captured from military bases in Israel or taken captive while in Gaza as they were committing genocide.
• Hamas has offered to release all the hostages in exchange for a full ceasefire since October 11, 2023
• Israel is an illegal genocidal apartheid regime that's committed to annexing and ethnically cleansing all Palestinian land, and as such will likely try to scuttle this peace deal and blame Hamas.

I don't care about what social media Corpo Carney uses to dickride billionaires and Israel, but we for sure need our federal government to stop using closed-source, centralized and American services like Xitter for communications.

Ending DST is such an easy and effortless political win that I don't know why it hasn't been done yet.

Agree for a main computer but there's no risk when using Windows 7 or XP on an offline machine.

Not sure what the alternative is, Ukraine has run out of manpower and the ones that are left don't want to keep fighting. We can dump all the money we have into the pit and it won't solve the manpower issues, the only solution to that if Europe deports all the Ukranian refugees back to Ukraine to force them to fight or we send our own NATO troops in (WW3). And if this keeps going the way it's been going millions are going to die and Putin will take all of Ukraine and not just parts of it that have been gone since 2014,

Fundamentally, elections were designed to be a peaceful alternative to the peasantry revolting against the government and beheading their king. As Americans come to grip with the reality that their elections are meaningless, their politicians are bought and their only alternative to fascism is fascism-lite with a pride pin (no trans ppl allowed though) this attitude will continue to fester.

Everybody agrees with supporting Ukraine including myself, the problem is that saying "maybe there should be a ceasefire and negotiated land swap" or "Ukraine should learn to live with Russia on their borders" triggers an extreme reaction in a lot of liberal centrists that just highlights the point in my original post 🤷‍♀️ Meanwhile Ukranians are being shoved into busses and forced to fight a losing war.

Supporting peace isn't "Russian propaganda", 78% of Ukranians want a negotiated end to the war. If you want to keep fighting Russia then send your own damn troops and quit forcing Ukranians to die over an inter-imperial pissing match that's killed almost their entire fighting age male population.

Democrats are the furthest thing from "moderate", they are on the extreme center. The idea that liberal centrism can't be extremist is damaging. Supporting endless proxy warfare in Ukraine, genocide in Gaza and austerity at home are all irrational, extremist positions that the Democrats (and most liberal parties in other countries) believe in.

Xbox is BDS - if you support Palestine, now is a great time to cancel your Gamepass subscription and stop funding genocide.

Dude talks about nothing except the the most mind-numbing culture war crap you find on the darkest pits of Facebook. He can't talk about his policies because the only thing he believes in is more corporate tax cuts and deregulation, which is the same shit Carney is doing. Very sad state of affairs for both parties! VOTE NDP!

Either Eurovision boycotts Pissrael or we continue our boycott of Eurovision as we've done for the last 2 years. They had no hesitation in giving Russia the boot in 2022 so the fact its taken them 2 years is indefensible. The only difference is the religion and skin colour of the people being slaughtered.

There's still a few weeks until 25.10 releases. If its still issues by release time I'm sure that they'll either delay the 25.10 release (as they have done in the past) or pause the coreutils-rs rollout and stick to GNU Coreutils for this release.

I got so excited until I saw who's buying them 😭 I just want another Burnout game bruh

What does the text on that beautiful Strawberry Elephant creature say? Looks like it's in Farsi

I mean I agree, 4 years of Biden was a disastrous failure that Kamala should have made a hard break from as soon as he dropped out, but didn't. Ridiculous, its like they were intentionally trying to lose.

Quite frankly anybody that's still defending the Democratic Party and the AIPAC-driven Harris 2024 campaign sounds more like a bot than any of the real people I talk about politics with every day who absolutely despise both Trump and the feckless, centrist Dems.

Episode did a great job illustrating how all Jews aren't to blame for Israel and how Israel's genocide is making Jews around the world less safe, but doesn't make the key point that the issue is with Israel/Zionism and if Netanyahoo went away tomorrow Israel would still be a genocidal, colonial apartheid state. Overall I'd give it a generous B- just for throwing cold water on a lot of the antisemetic narratives surrounding this genocide.
