Meanwhile, Tom Bombadull has the power to end the whole ordeal without breaking a sweat, and zero fucks to give.

Pissing away 40bn - 15% of your net worth to own the libs by destroying a company you were forced to buy requires an incredible degree of stupidity. Imagine the damage a remotely competent malicious narcissist could do with that kind of money.

For context, the 2016 election cost $6.5bn - for both sides, presidential and congressional elections - that comfortably buys you a quarter century of elections - and if the GOP has power for that long, at this point, there won’t be another election to fund.

Musk clearly has sub-normal IQ - there’s no shame in that, but he has no shortage of other reasons to be ashamed of himself.

Never attribute to malice what can reasonably be attributed to the stupidity, hate, and pig-headedness of an exceptionally fragile billionaire.

They certainly made the GOP start caring about gun control if nothing else… They were also damn good with message discipline, and (unless I’m mistaken), did some great mutual aid.

Answer the question, Rudolph Jitler.

What would reasonable Palestinian self-defence look like?

They keep doing monstrous things and it makes them look like monsters?

Maybe stop doing those monstrous things.

Israel isn’t looking to give up its mantle as the crybully champion of the world any time soon.

If justifiable self-defence by Israel looks like 40,972+ dead Palestinians (mostly civilians as we know) in response to 1,478 dead Israelis, what would justifiable Palestinian self-defence look like? I’ll remind you that as a current or former member of the IDF, every Israeli adult is an enemy combatant.

My understanding is that it’s difficult to prevent kids from dying when you bomb every school, children’s hospital, aid center, and potential Palestinian you see.

Maybe ease up on the genocide and warcrimes rather than crying there’s nothing you can do as you gleefully kill tens of thousands of people in a population that’s mostly children as you scream that they’re animals and you want a second bigger Amalek. Maybe don’t enforce an apartheid ethnostate, maybe don’t seize peoples’ land at gunpoint. Maybe as the global center of Judaism, you should showcase Jewish values rather than missile striking 4 day old newborns.

Police unions - what could possibly go wrong when the members of the arm of state power collectivise to exercise their collective power. The example you’ve selected speaks volumes about your sincerity and/or familiarity with the subject.

Similarly, unchecked power wielded by divine mandate that never had an interest in structural checks. We couldn’t possibly bake such checks into a more democratic, less hierarchical governmental and economic system.

You want to shit on the concept of democracy while you’re at it because of the current state of the US, champ?

Making your choice of tech platforms a meaningful part of your personality is cringey as fuck - irrespective of the platform.

When you’re a billionaire, they let you do it

-Some piece of human waste.

Canva’s UI is somehow more fiddly than Word for making edits, but they’ve always seemed like a pretty decent company to me.

…of course that only holds true until it doesn’t - I’m looking at you, Google.

Ah - lemmy.ml - it all fails into place - red fascist nonsense.

Wikipedia too, I suppose.

This sub’s credibility seems to be on par with the Gray Zone based on what you’re upvoting - I’m blocking this brain rot.

I’m in a similar boat, but I haven’t really switched because my watch history is all in Plex. Have you solved for this, or just lived with it?

I’ve tried jellyplex sync (I think), but config got to be a bit much.

Is this a case of “if you call us genocidal, we’ll kill you too”?

Is this the most terminally online possible way of saying “gender is a social construct and I’m a gender abolitionist”?

What are you talking about? David kicked kinda good while having hair, and Victoria was in a band called the Spice Girls despite being a set square haunted by the ghost of a rice cracker.

Hey now - Texas has the state guard too - do you think the entire weight of the Pentagon, it’s carrier strike groups, and multiple branches of well-funded modern military is any match for ~1,600 good ol’ boys?
