By promoting the lies that either Biden or Harris can single handedly stop the genocide, and that they’ve made no attempt to do so.

If we just ended our alliance with Israel, do you know what they would do next? They would likely ally themselves with Russia instead.

That would give Russia control over a port that facilitates a huge portion of commerce in the middle east. It would also give them control of a lot of tech companies, including Intel’s massive R&D campus, and they would have access to the iron dome, which would be a pretty big intelligence leak. Israel also has an extremely important spy network that western countries rely on, and suddenly they would start serving Russia instead.

It would also allow the rest of the middle east to “escape containment”, so to speak. Particularly Iran. As soon as that happens, where do you think their missiles will go next?

Oh, and the genocide of Palestinians would still continue.

Geopolitics is complicated, and Biden was walking a tightrope. He was at least placing limits on how US weapons could be used, and trying to negotiate a ceasefire. Trump will scrap all of that and encourage Israel to kill everyone in the region.

But you didn’t care about any of that. Your moral outrage prevented you from trying to figure out why things are the way they are, and you joined the choir of people who were trying to prevent anyone from voting for Harris. A choir that mostly consisted of Trump supporters who were just trying to promote anything that might hurt Harris’s chances of winning.

Yes, because you helped him win.

I know that a car pollutes…

I don’t think so, but you can always write the file somewhere else and then sudo mv it back.

:w !sudo tee %

Of course that’s impossible to remember, but you can just google “vim sudo save” or something like that to find it.

Blargerer is probably saying that because the Mastodon post OP linked to says “In 2016 the EU Commission confirmed in writing that adblock detection requires consent.”

That, in turn, is probably referring to a letter received from the European Commission by the same person, which you can see here: https://twitter.com/alexanderhanff/status/722861362607747072

It’s not exactly a “ruling”, but it’s still pretty convincing.

Fair point. I always disliked the design because ORMs pretty much always use quotes, so an entity-first approach can create a lot of tables with capital letters if you’re not careful, which is then really annoying if you need to use raw SQL for anything.

Postgres normalizes table and field names to lowercase, unless you put them in quotes. It’s also case sensitive.

That means if you use quotes and capital letters when creating the table, then it’s impossible to refer to that table without using quotes.

It also means if you rename the table later to be all lowercase, then all your existing code will break.

Still a much better database than MySQL though.

Close encounters of the racist kind is a good read. Here’s the most relevant part:

Consider the H2 series “In Search of Aliens,” which, before its demise, promoted the work of Jan Udo Holey, a German writer whose antisemitic books have been banned across Europe. (Holey’s pen name, Jan Van Helsig, is a blunt Dracula reference, i.e. Jews are bloodsuckers.) The History Channel’s long-running series “Ancient Aliens,” meanwhile, features David Childress, whose books cite and build on the work of James Churchward, who promoted an ancient empire called the “lost continent of Mu,” whose “dominant race” was an “exceedingly handsome people, with clear white or olive skin.”

The history channel is entry level nazi propaganda.

You’re still trying to change the subject and not answering the question.

How exactly do you think someone can be anonymous to the government if they’re not anonymous to the public?

We’re not talking about doxxing. Don’t change the subject.

How exactly do you think someone can be anonymous to the government if they’re not anonymous to the public?

The Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly that the right to anonymous free speech is protected by the First Amendment. A frequently cited 1995 Supreme Court ruling in McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission reads:

Anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority. . . . It thus exemplifies the purpose behind the Bill of Rights and of the First Amendment in particular: to protect unpopular individuals from retaliation . . . at the hand of an intolerant society.

Abducting thousands of Ukrainian children, indoctrinating them with propaganda, and forcing them to live as Russian citizens is genocide.

Performing forced sterilizations on Uyghurs is genocide.

Thanks for demonstrating what I said, though. It’s clear you don’t see any problem with those things.

Capitalism=bad Genocide=bad Opression in any form=bad

Unless Russia or China do it. You left that part out.

A lemmygrad user condemning Israel for genocide is the purest form of hypocrisy I’ve ever seen. Make up your fucking mind.

That’s a foolish assumption. Plenty of countries have strong reasons to weaken Israel, and plenty of other countries have strong reasons to support them.

Russia and China are spreading as much propaganda about this as the the US and its allies, guaranteed.
