They’re also completely ignoring the return on investment of these funds. China is busy investing around the globe to sow pro Chinese sentiment everywhere. If you want democracy to thrive these are the types of investment that can buy your side long term alliances. But we already know they don’t want democracy to survive.

randoot@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Philip Low, long-time friend and peer of Elon Musk, posts an open letter that sheds light on Elon's actions, calling him out, and speculating on possible motivations.21·5 months agoI’m curious if this author can point to a specific time when musk became radicalized or if he was always this way.
I cringe when i remember being a musk fan. When he was the underdog I rooted for him. I believed in electric cars and reusable rockets. He came off like an awkward engineer type who was chasing a fantasy.
My first real wake up call was when he slandered that diver.
Was he always just acting or did he slowly lose his mind? If he was acting he did a good job or I was an idiot I’m not sure.
I love that he’s out there risking his life for beer

The law is just pieces of paper if the people who are supposed to enforce it don’t want to.

Your so called protest doesn’t help change the system either. All it accomplishes is kill more Palestinians. It’s a fucked up system and we should absolutely do everything we can to change it, but not voting doesn’t absolve you of the excess deaths of innocents.
You have a chance to help people but you’re too morally pure so instead you choose to plug your ears while they get murdered and tell yourself letting them die was the right choice morally.
If Trump wins and Israel ends up murdering everyone, I’ll come back to this comment and remind you.
randoot@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Bernie Sanders to voters skipping presidential election over Israel: ‘Trump is even worse’144·8 months agoHere’s the reality; we’re all playing the trolley problem but it’s with real people and unfortunately the only options are kill more people or kill less people. If you know that by not voting you’re killing more people then you can’t claim you’re not responsible for their deaths.
If you really care go out and protest the system after the election. Choosing to let more people die now is a protest but you have blood on your hands.

I know you’re being sarcastic, but for those too young to remember; look up the tiki torch Nazi rallies from Trump’s term.

I ask for one if I suspect they’ll get my order wrong and I have a paper trail.

I haven’t read it all yet and most of the links don’t mention offers from Hamas. But I did see on Feb 20 Hamas offered to release some hostages in return for a temporary ceasefire and return of Hamas prisoners. This was rejected by Netanyahu.

Me on the couch in the living room that night my parents didn’t notice Basic Instinct is playing on TV.
So sad they were so close to saving him.
The ruling class forgets how the unions were the compromise to allow them to keep their heads attached to their bodies
