  • See, this is the shit. Who are the occupiers? Palestine is a remnant of the Ottoman empire. Before that it was the Byzantines or the Romans and just about every other empire in the area in human history. Before Rome , it was the Jews. Then they lost the war and were banished from the region and scattered. It's the major reason there is NO one right answer. People going to a concert don't deserve to be brutally raped and murdered JUST as much as people trying to survive in an open air prison don't deserve to be indiscriminately bombed. That shit has been a dumpster fire for 3000 years, now all in the pursuit of power and clout. We can give a damn about people not in power, AKA the civilians on both sides.

  • Zelenskyy will meet with Biden as White House intensifies efforts to strike a deal on foreign aid
  • There's a lot of lobby money tied into that but there's another policy pill that's hard to swallow, as well. The US has stated numerous times that after the assault on Hamas is over, Palestinians should and need to be the ones to govern themselves either through a new government or the Palestinian Authority which has been kept out of power since Hamas assumed rule in the West Bank. Israel hasn't committed to that solution and without the US, there is no one to make them commit. So if the US pulls out, now, Israel still won't stop and the resolution will be Palestinians living under Israeli rule. There isn't a right answer or path forward so they're opting for the least bad, long-term.

  • Carbon Capture...
  • But that isn't how technology works. We'll need carbon capture to be at a point where we can actively remove carbon from the atmosphere at a higher rate than it enters the atmosphere as we ween off carbon fuels if we ever want to survive climate change long term.

  • It really makes me cringe every time they talk about logic...
  • The flaw of the meme isn't that it's picking on religion, the flaw of it is that it assumes illogical views negate logical views. Believing that angels hid golden plates in New England doesn't negate good looks at a P&L in the same way that a Christian working at NASA that believes a dude rose from the dead doesn't negate good math to get a satellite into space. In the same way that me being agnostic doesn't mean I'm always logical and rational in every situation.

  • curious
  • The two party system also juggles coalitions, but we know them most popularly as voting blocks in the general population or caucuses in the parties. This is one of the reasons Sinema and Manchin held so much power from '20-'22. Our caucuses and voting blocks don't always give power to individuals, but mostly to agendas.

  • We were interviewing a Palestinian farmer. Then the drones and soldiers appeared : NPR
  • 3 states' filing deadlines to appear on the ballot have already passed and several will pass next month. And then there are the signatory and other requirements to file which take time and money. The ship has sailed on new candidates entering the race
