Oh nooo, did someone open their fucking mouth about shit they don't know about and are about to get dunked on?

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended Israel's regular allowing of Qatari funds to be transferred into Gaza, saying it is part of a broader strategy to keep Hamas and the Palestinian Authority separate, a source in Monday's Likud faction meeting said," the Post reported.

Netanyahu's current finance minister, West Bank settler Belazel Smotrich, explained the approach to Israel's Knesset channel in 2015: "Hamas is an asset, and (Palestinian Authority leader) Abu Mazen (Mahmoud Abbas) is a burden."

"Both Egypt and Qatar are angry with Hamas and planned to cut ties with them. Suddenly Netanyahu appears as the defender of Hamas," the right-wing leader complained.

A year later, Netanyahu was further embarrassed when photos of suitcases full of cash going to Hamas became public. Liberman finally resigned in protest over Netanyahu's Hamas policy which, he said, marked "the first time Israel is funding terrorism against itself."

Actually because Nintendo is a Japanese company it means Japanese law applies to their work in America and America will facilitate the laws execution as if it was it's own because we are in this treaty.

It's why Nintendo gets away with all of its bullshit already. Because they are following Japanese copyright law which is significantly more heavy than American.

Nintendo is a Japanese company.

The devs themselves have asked users to review bomb their own game on their discord. Your not standing up for them, your standing for Sony and Sony alone.

How do you feel about Irish independence then?

[-] SmilingSolaris@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

That's a very silly thing for you to say when the other guy attempted to overthrow the US government in an insurrection. Yeah, fuck Biden and all, but at least he ain't a self proclaimed dictator who actually wants to be rid of democracy you silly lil billy.

I wonder what effects mental health. Possibly material conditions of people? Maybe capitalism prioritizing profit over every thing else causes mental illness in people who are exploited for the greed of few?

No shit dumbass. That doesn't change anything.

And what does voting do to hinder those things? We both communists but you act like if you vote everything you else do doesn't matter. You act like if you dare vote in favor of any kind of harm reduction that you somehow ain't a communist or you somehow are contributing. That's not how that works. One of these two options will happen. The least you can do is take half a second to pick the one that will kill less people in the meantime while we keep working.

If your complaint is that "I don't wanna contribute to the system" then the fuck are you doing here? Go to the woods and punch trees like the libertarians. You live and participate in capitalism weather you like it or not, and in the meantime you play games, watch movies and pay rent. You already prop up genocide Joe with your taxes I'm sure you pay. Drawing the line at voting is just silly

Unless your picking up a gun and taking both options out / overthrowing the entire government, not voting at all is saying your okay with either outcome, not that your not okay with either.

[-] SmilingSolaris@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

It's less people dying. We can be happy that the genocide will be slightly less effective. Unless your about to pick up a gun and put your "we should demand more" to the test, just for a moment be happy that less people will be dead in the next month than would be otherwise.
