20·2 years agoNormalize turning on DND permanently.
91·2 years agoAfter 9/11, USA went into a bloodlust, invading Afghanistan because they (Taliban) wanted proof that Osama bin Laden was involved with the terrorist attack first. bin Laden fled to Pakistan, but the USA didn’t invade them, nor threatened to. Instead, USA just kept their boots on foreign soil because, hey, free real state and cheap poppy, amirite?
Just to add to your point.
Afghanistan was fairly cut and dry. The Taliban refused to turn over bin Laden and the US invaded.
That’s incredibly false
This has been known for quite some time. Propaganda really is a hell of a drug.
They’re mostly a bunch of neo-colonists that believe in western exceptionalism and won’t spend any time learning about the country the west occupied for over 20 years, let alone the complicated dynamics of the country.
I mean legit half the comments are variants of “We need to civilize the savages”.
Reminds me of all the crocodile tears against leaving Afghanistan in the first place “Think of the women!” they cried, well what happened when the country was dealing with a famine (which of course impacted millions of Afghani women) and the US stole half of Afghani assets at a time they desperately needed it? crickets.
Propaganda is a hell of a drug.
Remember when the Afghan people had a phenomenally well equipped and well trained army, and then they just gave up inside a week because things were “hard”?
You didn’t read the Afghanistan Papers did you?
3·2 years agoI love the “If you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to hide…”
I usually respond to those folks with “Can I watch you fuck your spouse? You’re not doing anything wrong, they’re your spouse, so you shouldn’t have anything to hide”
The crazy part is, I’ve gotten a few enthusiastic “Yes” responses to that…
I don’t disagree, and you’re absolutely right, but i’d argue there’s still a difference between a government organization collecting the data themselves, and the same organization buying it from other brokers. It’s semantics sure, but it’s a new dimension of this fucketry.
like they do on a VERY regular basis. Remember the NSA treasure trove of exploits that produced the wannacry fiasco?
Microsoft got blamed, when the NSA was obviously to blame.
The hilarious part (in a bleak fashion), is I can’t find many other articles discussing this.
Then everyone will panic and go crazy when someone like Trump wins and they have access to all this. History repeats.
huh, TIL. Thanks!
Is there a toggle to show NSFW or something, cause I haven’t seen any.
143·2 years ago“These updates depend on many device-specific non-Google hardware and software providers that work with Google to provide the highest level of security and stability support,” said Peter Du, communications manager for ChromeOS. “For this reason, older Chrome devices cannot receive updates indefinitely to enable new OS and browser features.”
Bull. Shit.
Bingo.
I have people who I actually want to receive calls from on the “pass through” list, but when I just want to relax? Everyone else goes straight to voicemail.
