An Iranian civil war would be Netanyahu’s preferred outcome.

“Twelfnd”

And the actual longer term conflict started in 1947 when Palestine and the surrounding countries plain refused to agree to a UN resolution, again due to pseudo-religious nonsense.

There were various reasons to reject the first UN resolution, none of which were “pseudo-religious”:

• The Arab states claimed that the UN did not have the authority to set the borders here and split the territory. They wanted the ICJ to rule on that, but were denied by the UN.
• Various territories assigned to Israel contained a majority Arab population, which did not want to become part of a Jewish state.
• Handing lands with Jewish majorities in them to a new Jewish state was seen as contentious anyway, since a lot of those areas only became majority Jewish after Zionist terrorist movements (which even the UN declared terrorist btw) used terror attacks to ethnically cleanse the area. It was seen as rewarding terrorism (the irony being that terrorism from Hamas is now used to deny Palestinian statehood).
• There were significant worries that Israel would not stick to the borders and expand further, which ultimately happened when Israel unilaterally declared independence and immediately laid claims to neighbouring lands, anticipating they would be attacked (which they were, and they subsequently took some extra land when they won the war).

The whole reason the conflict started in the first place is because Zionist movements started carving out a new Jewish state in already populated lands, supported by pseudo-religious nonsense claims.

Note that all subsequent attempts by the UN to settle the conflict were also violated by Israel, most notably the Oslo accords. The ongoing settler violence on the west bank and in Gaza also hardly makes Israel a “peaceful” democracy.

Very aptly put.

Having had Rutte as PM for a long time, this guy is a diplomat. He will say whatever he thinks needs to be said to whoever is listening to, without truly believing a single word of it. It makes him exceptionally good at maintaining relations, and that’s what he’s doing here: positioning NATO as an essential US ally, that the US benefits from. It’s aimed directly at Trump and his sycophants.

And I mean it’s his job to keep NATO together so sucking up to Trump is in his job description. But one thing is certain: don’t believe Mark Rutte’s words, since he doesn’t really believe them himself.

I’ve had McDonald’s in Italy and it’s the same cardboard taste there as it is elsewhere in Europe imo.

Doubtful. Librewolf still uses Firefox as base.

Not anymore really, the Taiwanese government has abandoned claims to the mainland.

Model train building can be considered a bit weird, but it’s one of the most wholesome and welcoming communities you can find.

Sometimes I visit the subreddit for it and am reminded of what that site used to be. Genuine engagement, people just happy to show things off and providing really in depth feedback or tips when asked.

Not sure if he quit or was fired, but he updated his employment status with FUTO on LinkedIn.

I’m not so sure, a lot of the shit slinging (especially on Facebook) already has people’s real names attached to it. The worst of the worst are shameless anyway.

Rossman doesn’t work for FUTO anymore. FUTO has done some weird shit and Rossman has made some missteps in the past, but at least for him his heart seems to be in the right place. I don’t think it’s in his nature to want to screw you over so to speak.

Green Book maybe? It’s not really about modern-day racism as much as recent-history racism, but perhaps it helps to show what people had to deal with (and still do in many cases).

Sodium, Optifine, Iris, Distant Horizons etc… will likely require a lot of work. But the people maintaining those are genuinely geniuses.

For regular mods a lot is handled by FRAPI or Forge.

These attacks can happen through server impersonation as well. The actual cloud servers need not be compromised, just the user’s browser has to be. This attack can then leak passwords and allow malicious parties to even gain access on the actual cloud servers apparently.

As a shareholder, you are financially incentivised to not question narratives the company presents if they supposedly present the company in a good light.

Suppose you do ask, the narrative unravels and the share price tanks. Congrats, you’ve just lost a buttload of money. Why would you do that?

No, best option is to applaud loudly, tout it in the press and watch useful idiots buy your shares at inflated prices.

The people who do ask the questions are the people the company doesn’t feel obliged to answer.
