The more I learn to try and see the world as a collection of people just doing what they need to trying to survive, perchance to thrive, the more absolutely comic book evil the bad guys seem. "Oh, I can see why you would want nukes after seeing how America renegs on their deals." vs "I am literally fascism incarnate and its not subtle."

I'm nobody from nowhere doing nothing, but I have spent so many hours whittling away a sense of humor, political philosophy, multiple novels, and interpersonal relationships believing that people's actions are usually internally consistent and grounded in their material base. You know how much I hate the concept of a bad guy? Not to mention I took a collegiate level class on the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict. What an unhinged lunatic. The Zionist entity has no qualms endangering peace for untold millions with war crimes that we collectively decided in the wake of two of the bloodiest conflicts the world has ever seen were too fucked up. For what? For cheap Gazan labor in an open air prison?

I just hope justice is real.

What, did they not condemn Hamas or something? You're venture capitalists, you don't even care about the shit that you produce. How the fuck are you going to care about the creativity of the project?

That first statistic is so funny. It reminds me of conversations that are like "He's a felon, but it was for drugs." "Oh, who cares?" It's the same thing except you'd go

"They're a murderer, but they murked a politician"

"Oh shit, which one?"

[My lawyer suggests I don't include this line]

"Oh, that rocks! Can we invite them over for dinner? I'll bring out the fine china"

Blue maga be like

Wait, then that would imply that isntrael is simply an arm of US nationalism and therefore just a proxy for imperialist violence. They wouldn't just do something like that, would they?

America be like "I like and support the worst things imaginable: here's why that's a good thing"

Me when I am asking someone to grant me the power to enact their desires

"I am going to tell you what to believe."

So between this, that recent upsurge in struggle against ad blockers, and the timing for the beginning of a quarter, one can expect some horrible copyright mutation or a real ethically reprehensible new development. Like you have to become a YouTube employee with US army oversight to use Nintendo IP or something

Super Tuesday in 2020 made me realize the Dems treat the process of electing a leader like McDonald's does a build-a-burger contest. So people could feel profoundly that Bernie Sanders is correct, but the manager in charge of the burger contest isn't really going to start giving people "bag of lettuce and mayonnaise," so they'll just tinker with the process so it doesn't get the most votes.

Whatever happened to the free market? I thought we could do whatever we wanted. Seems like a skill issue
