It's amazing seeing how bald faced some people are in the calls for genocide as well.
Like there can ever be a justified reason for genocide. And it's fascinating how the pattern of abuse fits the same pattern as domestic abuse, with all the usual victim blaming, the much more powerful party playing the role of victim. Pointing out how flawed their victim is, how they bring the abuse onto themselves. How the vulnerable party deserves whatever they has inflicted upon them. I remember a Jewish lecturer, who had once served in the IDF, explaining how the state of Israel very much demonstrates the phenomenon of identification with the aggressor at the state level.

Part of our email filters contains a function where it will tell us the exact times that someone clicked on any links contained within
Staff member unfortunately received a false negative email with links to obviously explicit content. Logs show he clicked the provided links multiple times over a period of three minutes. Can’t deny that one buddy! He wasn't directly answering my questions at first and I wasn’t telling him what I was looking but I gave him an “out” by suggesting his iPhone might have previewed the links and that it wasn’t actually him. Strangely that elicited an admission.

Every dead Gazan is a win for Hamas. Everyone knows this. That's why we know demands on Hamas are completely dishonest. The rationale for bombing Gaza is completely dishonest. This is all Hamas's victory. And also a victory for the formerly tenuous Israeli government. A victory for a certain politician trying to avoid corruption charges, trying to restructure the judiciary to get out from under its authority.

The Internet blackout in Gaza is spooky. Still only a token trickle of aid coming in. Bombing aside, people must be getting sick.
This could be the first genocide I've really witnessed. I was alive for Darfur and Rwanda, but I wasn't really aware of what was going on. That'll be something complex to grapple with...

For someone who presents themselves with a level of idealism and moral fibre, you certainly seem to be stimulated by events such as this.
|
28th October 2023, 20:57 | #43975 |

I'm not really sure what you mean.
I mean, I get the stimulated bit. Genocide freaks me out. It freaks me out that people aren't freaked out about it. What's happening in Gaza is pure sadistic fantasy come true. Forces within Israel that have long wanted to grind out the Gazans beneath their heels have been unleashed. I don't think people get how vulnerable we all are, how what happens anywhere in the world can impact all the world. Either we're fairly privileged and insulated, or we think our wounding is special, we're enduring something rare, few others understand. Oblivious to the volume of suffering there is in our community, and how the shape and nature of this suffering shifts along with events going on in the world. Or is it that people are aware, but we've sunk so much into what we've got, loss is unthinkable? It's either everything is going to go on fine, or we're completely fucked.

To be clear, I don't think a genocide is likely to eventuate. But the population has already endured a thorough involuntary dicking, and more is yet to come.
Millions of people who have no power over their circumstances are getting proper fucked. With a US carrier group off shore. Despite the lies that you can somehow hear parroted anywhere you stop to listen, the civilians of Gaza do not have control over their fate. It's abominable to suggest that, given all that's so obvious about their circumstances.

It's fascinating seeing the more raw feed of live sources via social media, the documenting of various extreme awful nonsenses being perpetuated by all kinds of people in all kinds of places. And seeing what ends up floating to the surface in various other media contexts, what can be publicly spoken about and what can't. For all those shook by the realisation of their vulnerability to powerful, opaque forces during the pandemic, this is where you can really see the detail of it. The truth of our values, of who is protected and who isn't can be really seen. At least with much more clarity than usual.

No honest person has any kind of expectations of a terrorist group. Only those looking to justify indulging their murderous sadism would have such expectations.
People who find enjoyment in the suffering of others are having a great time right now.

So, the state of Israel is the only side that has to follow the rule of law while the rulers of Gaza get to go around raping and murdering Jews?
Makes sense. |
1st November 2023, 16:19 | #43986 |

Rule of law only works when it always applies.
If rule of law is off the table, Gaza is only the beginning. Forces around the world will get their cue, time to drop pretence. The world is free to be raped and pillaged once more.

Plenty of French civilians died from allied bombs during WWII. Such is the nature of war. Likewise, the Israeli hostages are likely kept in tunnels dug by hamas (with Israel money, lol) and they are likely being killed by Israeli bombs.

I get it, if you want to murder people who can't defend themselves, just find the right story to tell.
Also, get the right people for the job: https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-771210 This will happen again and again, until Israel starts working towards a peaceful solution or until they destroy Palestine. Destroying Hamas only creates their replacement. The US is working hard right now to prevent the world turning on Israel, which will happen if they keep killing.

What's unfortunate about your little story xor is it works for those oblivious about Yemen. Those uninterested. Like those uninterested in Gaza.
I think you'll find those who are speaking up about Palestine have also spoken up about Yemen.

just found it a bit interesting, UFC is in a massive lawsuit and has been for years about fighter compensation, the conditions in their contracts and the monopsony they hold over the industry, etc. the data only goes to 2016, there's some additional payout info via substack but i ain't got a sub, can probably be found elsewheres on the internet now it's been 12hours or so since it's release. but yeah, found it interesting how much the fighters were getting paid back then, and blows my mind that ronda left in 2016 and how infrequently conor has been inside the octagon in the last 7 years. where does the time go
Ronda Rousey’s payouts $574,720 vs. Liz Carmouche $1,817,907 vs. Miesha Tate $870,969 vs. Sara McMann $1,063,688 vs. Alexis Davis $1,458,282 vs. Cat Zingano $2,642,204 vs. Bethe Correia $4,476,662 or $4,536,932 vs. Holly Holm $4,879,766 vs. Amanda Nunes Conor McGregor’s payouts $3,285,000 (includes $2.11M discretionary bonus) vs. Chad Mendes* $4,476,662 or $4,536,932 vs. Jose Aldo — Aldo received $2,377,699 $5,576,315 vs. Nate Diaz 1 — Diaz received $2,838,158, and the PPV event generated $61 million. $5,615,490 vs. Nate Diaz 2 — Diaz received $4,315,490. $6,812,374 vs. Eddie Alvarez — the PPV event generated $66 million for UFC. |

Crazy right wingers gonna be crazy. This was shot down by Netanyahu. Although, there is a policy called 'The Samson option' which is part of Israel's nuclear strategy.
Also, Phil Twyford needing a police escort for condemning hamas. Pretty obvious ant-semitism there. Those supporting hamas should not be allowed to stay in NZ. https://twitter.com/JulietMosesNZ/st...01729510895946 |

I love it: "This was shot down". As if it might not be. As if, well, maybe it could be on the cards.
The power differential between the crazies in these circumstances is off the charts. Only one set of them has access to JDAM.
