I’ve been using Ublock origin for years

Same here. I started seeing them this week.

Youtube is telling me daily that they’ll soon disable my youtube because I have an ad blocker. Still waiting for it to actually happen.

Good point for some day trading probably. The trend with these Trump market manipulations have been so far that he says something, stock crashes, then he says something else, stock goes back up.

Trump says Russia is planning “horror attacks” because I guess there’s no way they can be terror attacks lol

Yeah, the amount of hatred Americans are fermenting on their own country is just mind-boggling. It’s like their number one wish in the world is to fail.

Reddit indeed is pure shit.

Yes, this is the cruel part, not the part where the point is to punch the other person until they have enough trauma they lose consciousness.

Not allowing biological men to punch biological women until they fall down? That’s the real fascism.

Wonder if Palestine academics are secretly against Hamas too

Too bad this attack probably cannot done another time. And another and another.

Problem is that they were not always wrong. Napoleon and Hitler are the most recent examples, but in history there are dozens more. Their western front was just too accessible in pre-modern times, impossible to defend 100%.

There’s a huge amount of pro-palestine propaganda in the internet right now. And looking at reactions, it’s working.

As a recent example: “14,000 babies could die in Gaza in next 48 hours if aid isn’t let in – UN”

One would think that the actual warcrimes Israel is committing should be enough to report on honestly, but somehow no. We have spruce things up a bit. If I was conspirationally inclined, I’d say that Israel themselves are adding these lies into the mix so they can always point out that this and that was a lie.

The phone I’m talking about is https://puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/ and yeah I guess they’re not even claiming that.

“Starting at $1,999” lol I was out of my fucking mind. Good thing I don’t have that kind of monies.

A year ago I was seriously thinking that I might want to buy a laptop or a phone that was completely made in the U.S.

Yeah, that’s just dumb.

Roughly a similar move was made by the far right finance minister in Finland. When she was faced with the challenge of communicating the need for austerity, did she use empathy? No, she went for twitter posts where she laughed aloud with scissors in hand.

He drugged and raped a 13 year old child.

I hope everyone here is sane enough to understand that that is a lot worse than what JK Rowling is doing here.

I’m not saying Reagan wasn’t a bad president, just focusing on his effects on the economy. That doesn’t excuse his other failures.

Putin is a lot worse than Trump though. I can somehow imagine a future where the right person talks to Trump and convinces him to support Ukraine in a real way.

I don’t see any other way out of this mess for Putin except his death. Best option would be some sort of a revolution.

Reagan was president 1981-1989. During years 1981-2023, there were only 5 years (1982, 1991, 2008, 2009, 2020) where US growth was less than 1%. I don’t know enough to say whether that’s thanks to or despite Reagan, but he sure didn’t destroy the economy.

Russians themselves were willing (or were ordered instead of asked) to go die in WW2 against Nazi Germany. Was this a “sheer hatred of germans” that was due to “germanphobic propaganda”? Perhaps a bit, but there cleary was a worthy cause behind it all.

If it meant an end to the fascist regime of Russia, it’d be worth it. We all die anyway at some point, why not die for a good cause then.

That’s beyond dumb at all levels. I mean even if you were a 100% Israel supporter and you wanted Gaza to just vanish, this is an absolutely bad idea in literally every possible way. Even the wildest most super-orthodox LSD tripped Torah study group couldn’t produce this shit.
