drop the nuke on somewhere that doesn't belong to Palestinians,

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Seriously. Turning the Palestinian homeland into an irradiated wasteland only to prove a point is some twisted, cruel, logic.

[–] la_tasalana_intissari_mata@hexbear.net 23 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I would personally not like nuxlear weapons to be dropped anywhere on earth, because even the U.S. is built on occupied land, but if I had to choose it'd be Berlin.

I don't want Iran to have a nuke. However, imperial aggression from the United States has made it a necessity for them to build one.

[–] gayspacemarxist@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

idk, nukes are the only way to guarantee national sovereignty. I don't think we should necessarily encourage nuclear armament, but without nukes developing countries can't ever graduate to a status where they aren't subject to the whims of existing nuclear powers. I think once you can safely manage a nuclear energy program with international oversight (like Iran has done), you're demonstrating that you have what it takes to maintain a nuclear arsenal.

The recent US aggression is just more proof that nukes are necessary to maintain peace.

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Exactly yeah, but I don't want it to be this way

[–] gayspacemarxist@hexbear.net 1 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Idealism is an interesting way of seeing the world.

[–] tocopherol@hexbear.net 2 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Is it idealism to say you don't like it when bad things happen?

[–] gayspacemarxist@hexbear.net -1 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I wish Iran would have gotten the memo a long time ago and made a nuke. All this destruction could have been avoided.

MAD exists because americans are genocidal. That's a thing you can't make peace with, but a nuke will keep it out of your house. Even if you can fight them, you can't exactly trust them not to nuke you without MAD either because they've done it twice before.

That's peace, isn't that a good thing?

Unless the bad thing is "a nuke existing".

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

well, in a more idealist sense, do we even want "national sovereignty" if we strive for worldwide class emancipation?

to be baby brained, sometimes shit sucks - but it's material reality and has to be considered and dealt with. doesn't stop it from sucking though, even if the cat's out of the bag

[–] gayspacemarxist@hexbear.net 1 points 19 hours ago

Idealism isn't wanting things to be better tho, or even recognizing that they are bad. Its like you said in the first paragraph, you're trying to presuppose the correct way to do social revolution.

Nukes are dangerous things, but this thread is kinda treating them like they're demons.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So you do want them to have a nuke, it's just that in some completely counterfactual world without problems you wouldn't want them to have one.

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago

Yes that's what I'm saying. There are many compromises I need to make with ym own ideals to contend with the real world, this is far from the only one. It sucks that we have lost so bad the past 35 years that the current best case scenario involves a theocracy building a weapon of mass destruction.

Thanks for this comment, I'm giggling a lot

Sometimes radiation is the only way to kill cancer.

geordi-no 1000 more shaheds for Dubai

geordi-yes 3 nukes on Dubai allows for 1000 more shaheds on tel aviv

[–] supafuzz@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

you aren't going to get zionists to stop by bombing somebody else, ever

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago

Nukes aren't required in order to stop the zionists, normal bombs and bullets work just fine.

What's the difference between making Palestinians live in a nuclear wasteland and letting them get genocided?

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Drop it on the places where Isntrael settlers came from

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago

The United States is also stolen land.

I see no indication that he has any involvement in the ACP? Like, what is this even about? You're an admin, it's untoward for you to be doing drive-by vaguepost shootings on random posts. Either take an administration action if there's an actual problem, or don't.

I'm not American, there terms and parties you're throwing at me mean very little to me, beyond being vaguely aware of patsocs. Shouldn't this be the one site where we don't just assume everyone else is also American and has deep familiarity with all your inter-factionalist squabbles?

I assume the problem with patsocs, from my limited understanding, is that they're American nationalists? I haven't seen this guy being a rabid nationalist or chauvinist or anything, and, as seen in the post I linked above, he seems to have genuine respect for the heroism and sacrifices of the Resistance. What should I be upset about? The "our forces" in the original post isn't some nationalist thing, it comes from the quoted tweet

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 1 points 21 hours ago

You can destroy all the information in a physical storage medium by overwriting it 6 or 7 times, there's no need for more than that

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 1 points 22 hours ago

Oh we're doing the "Turn it all to glass" bit again? Boy history sure dose rhyme.
