We can stop sending them our tax dollars, seeking then weapons (as dictated by our laws), and stop threatening other countries who attempt to stop this massacre of civilians. How about that?

It is called reading comprehension, which is a component of literacy. I'll quote myself from the comment before I started pointing out the rampant illiteracy in this thread.

"The fact that I am being made complicit by the realities of the situation I've been forced into by the majority in my country (read: white colonizers) really pisses me off."

In another country... that our tax dollars fund, we supply weapons to, and we implicitly protect with our military and political power. Ok, sure bud. I'm the one arguing in bad faith. 🤡

Bruh, why can't any of you read. Goddamn.

I didn't, you just can't read well.

Why are all of you so fucking illiterate? I am voting for Harris. I'm angry my choice is ANY genocide at all.

I stopped reading that screed after you accused me of privilege. Again, another lemmy illiterate. I am voting for Harris. I'm angry at those with privilege who've made this the only choice I have.

Another illiterate. I'm voting for Harris, I'm just angry at the assholes who forced this choice.

Incorrect. You're either illiterate or pretending to be for political points. I'm voting for Harris. It wouldn't matter if it was her or any other Democrat who supports the genocide, I'd still be angry at the white majority in this country who created this shit dichotomy. It is literally minorities, predominantly black women, who've kept fascism at bay in this country. You and yours are terrible human beings. If ya'll weren't, we wouldn't be here.

Bad faith? It is bad faith to find any genocide "acceptable," while simultaneously becoming angry at anyone pointing out that genocide is unacceptable. Seriously, what the actual fuck? This is white liberalism in its most concentrated lethal form. Ironically, it'll eventually lead to the genocides you don't find acceptable. If it wasn't for this shit mentality, we wouldn't be here.

I doubt that's happening, disparate groups acting in an unconcerted manner aren't likely to achieve much. They already kill us sleeping in our beds.

I think it is fucking reprehensible that the only two parties we have to choose from both support genocide. It doesn't matter if they support "less genocide." Supporting genocide makes them a piece of shit, regardless of how much genocide it is. You just find it better because it doesn't affect you. The fact that I am being made complicit by the realities of the situation I've been forced into by the majority in my country (read: white colonizers) really pisses me off.

I think autocorrect fucked this comment, friend.

I mean...yeah...but also fuck the democrats. We shouldn't be stuck in this position of genocide and fascism there and here or "just" genocide and fascism there. There are certainly degrees of being a piece of shit, but at this point, we are splitting hairs.

I haven't played the most recent one, or madden for that matter, so this based on experience from about 15-20 years ago but I'm sure it'll be mostly the same. First and foremost, there are some rule differences. Second, there are different strategies, formations, and plays. Third, you have different players with greater diversity in talent level. Fourth, the teams are different, which might mean more to some than others. And finally, the commentators are different, the last time, they had the cat known for whistling, which was funny. I can't remember his name.

Well, we can blame both of our right-wing parties for contributing to the situation by enforcing the longest running embargo. The first break from this was during the Obama administration, but it was too little too late, and we immediately returned to the previous status quo.

I have an autism and anxiety diagnosis, but people often assume I have adhd. I say that to say that when shit hits the fan, folks tend to look to look to me, both in my professional and personal life. Maybe this is why I "love" the kitchen environment, especially when nothing is prepped and the tickets are hitting the floor. I'm in management now, and I keep being told to stop, but I'm still in the trenches all the time.

I think they are talking about those stupid ass vertical short dramas, though they are pretty transparent about them being A.I. scripts. The whole idea behind them is that they are mindless entertainment offered at very low cost and available in short eposodic format for phones.

Maybe. Without it, though, the individual would have to build and maintain a site, direct traffic there, and handle payments, as well still do all of the community management and content creation they already do. Now either they'd spend their own time doing this if they have the knowledge, or pay others, which might meet or exceed that 20% depending on their income level.

The previous commenter is saying that the company makes serious money.
