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.

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!

Micro$hit and Xbox Game Studios was added to the BDS list for high-priority boycott a few months ago - now that Micro$hit is feeling the pinch, they say they won't take Israel's blood money any more. KEEP UP THE PRESSURE.
