You don’t have to shoot missiles indiscriminately into civilian zones. If your enemy is hiding among civilian infrastructure and/or using human shields, you need to change your tactics up to suit. Committing war crimes in order to kill your enemy isn’t how you retain the moral highground.
So, in your mind, rules of engagement allow destroying civilian infrastructure that currently hosts many civilians so you can kill a handful of bad guys?
Criticizing. Israel. Is. Not. Anti-semitism.
Is criticizing Saudi Arabia “Islamophobia”?
If nothing else, this terrible unnecessary war has shown the West’s cognitive dissonance.
Hardcore right wing people generally hate Jewish people, unless the Jewish people are fighting Muslim people, then it’s “Jewish people have the right to self-determination!”
People on the left generally do not hate any specific ethnic group, however, we have a long history of criticizing Israel for their apartheid. Being met with the furor of everyone else calling us anti-semites is nothing new, but never has it come so forcefully from so many people all at once.
Moderates in the center aren’t speaking out at all for fear of being called anti-semitic, maintaining international relations with a nuclear power, and secretly hoping that this takes attention away from the climate crisis so we can keep going business as usual in favor of the ruling class.
More important than the cognitive dissonance though, is the fact that everyone in the West believes their opinion is the best and will solve everything.
The innocent Palestinian families that have lived their entire lives in an open air prison are the good guys.
They want to murder all Palestinians and lay exclusive claim to the Holy Land.
In case anyone is wondering who the bad guys (still) are.
Quick everyone! Let’s rush to defend Disney based on a technicality, even though they’ve been creatively bankrupt for years and no one watches MCU shows.
They’re using as much AI as possible now that there’s open revolt from many of the world’s top CGI effects studios.
I’ll use my Win 10 machine as the daily driver until the very last day of support. I game in 1080, and my 6gb 1060 coupled with my 6700k blows all but the very latest and most demanding games out of the water.
By the time I’m strong armed into Win 11, there might be a better option by then, but at the very least it will be a nice cheap time to upgrade to 2-3 year old hardware so I can continue playing factorio, but in 1440 instead of 1080.
As opposed to a week ago when Twitter was known as the hub of all rational and nuanced discussion.
Not only does pink girl have 5 knuckles where one would expect to find only 4, but she’s also somehow in the drivers seat at the same time as Glasses. And she’s wearing her backpack while also seated.
Man, AI sucks.
That’s the only take from Xbox players about this merger that I can get behind.
So not an ABK title then?
Grim Dawn absolutely smokes Diablo 3/4. The true successor to Diablo 2.
Anyone who still cares about CoD to the point where this is a concern is probably not an adult.
Any comedian can tell you, they’ve said way more cringey shit in their lives than funny shit.
Yeah I don’t think so.
So are you for or against Sunak’s proposal?
I’m astounded that people still aren’t aware that “right wing populist” means “your life will get harder”.
