I don’t remember, what’s the scene? Is that where bridge 4 escaped but then instead rescued Dalinar and Adolin?

Or maybe it was the fuck

I understand. You refuse to accept something that is fairly obvious for many Lemmy users and want to put a burden of proof on me, and because I don’t want to take on additional work for someone I neither know nor agree with, you are happy to keep your opinion, as am I to keep mine.

Ok, Stalin

Oh there certainly is. You gotta read those comment threads yourself.

It’s popped up in this one, too. It’s really curious how you can read and write enough to answer here, but not see that.

What’s your view on Trump?

That’s very abstract and doesn’t mean much. With as many words you can say capitalism is based on scientific reasoning.

I’m not even American yet still in “the west”, and refuse to be identified by American subpar ways of determining people in power.

Just to understand what you are saying, do you say communists apply scientific reasoning?

Here are some properties of any conspiracy theory worth it’s name:

• Closed Ideological Systems: They provide an all-encompassing explanation for various events or states, with everything fitting into their worldview.
• Immunity to Facts: Any contrary evidence is dismissed as false or considered part of the conspiracy.
• Enemy Construction: They tend to draw a clear line between “us” (those who “know the truth”) and “them” (the supposed conspirators).
• Adaptability: Conspiracy narratives can change and incorporate new “evidence” or events to maintain their credibility.

It matches for QAnon and the MAGA crowd as well as the lemmygrad crowd.

Another repeating problem is the vast generalizations. Treating “the West” as if they’re all Bush Jr. or Reagan.

Nope. Comment threads don’t work like that.

And the remainder of lemmy is the capitalist establishment?

Yes, there is all that. As I said, I think Netanyahu and his bunch belong in jail, not in power.

But even if this guy is out of the way, here’s a few more questions to consider:

• Do you agree that after Oct 7th, Israels strategy of building a wall and an “iron dome” must be considered totally failed?
• Do you agree that the Hamas can not be talked with?
• Do you agree that in addition to the Hamas, Israel is surrounded by militant groups that want to erase the state from the map?
• Do you agree that in the past no palestinean negotiator honestly considered a 2-state-solution?

What are, positively speaking, Israels options? What should a moderate follower of Netanyahu do to achieve some sort of piece? I’m lost here. Do you have any ideas other than saying “not this way”?

Really? What we have in the news these days is published by the conflict parties, independent verification is almost never possible.

To the leftist who is stunned by this message:

Think of Jordan Peterson. There was a time where he was riled up against “ideologies who would kill people in the name of a higher good.” And he named examples, Stalin and Mao most prominently. For all the abstract criticisms of ideologies, he rarely distances himself from Fascism, named Hitler only very occasionally as an example.

Now he is forethinker for the Republican Fascist party which is now normalizing the exact dehumanizing language that the Nazis used to prepared and justify their concentration camps.

Antifascists caught his thought patterns early on and warned of him using fascist arguments much more sensitive than most people, the missing distancing from Hitler along his other prominent examples being one of them.

Now, dear leftists, the mirror of this arguments wants to ask you if you are really only motivated by reducing human suffering and wanting peace. And if so, you cannot ignore the role of Hamas in this longtime ongoing conflict nor in this war. If you skip that, if that’s not in your mirror, it’s big time necessary to go outside your bubble. Because then chances are you are a puppet playing the propaganda trumpet for the Hamas, or otherwise playing in their hands.

Tedious as it may be, missing distance to a terrorist group like that in a conflict like that is a big red flag.

And just as a tedious albeit necessary disclaimer, I believe Netanyahu and quite a bunch of other Israeli actors belong in a courtroom and then in jail for their atrocities, and certainly not in power.

Circlejerk rather than shitpost.

It would also not have been possible with their design, if all the failguards wouldn’t have failed.

But 2 in 60 years, both of western design, is still more than that study estimated.

While true, the study obviously underestimated the evidence we gathered in the real world. It’s not simple to handle numbers with many 0 behind them, therefore it’s good to have multiple approaches.

True but In 2023 the alternatives are not nuclear vs coal, but nuclear vs wind and solar. The fallout for each accident is immense. Western Europe dealt with Tschernobyl for years. Japan was just lucky that the wind blew in the other direction.

If the world triples nuclear power plants, and we deal with an accident every 7-10 years, that’s gonna be a serious problem, even if it is “just” country sized areas that become unfarmable or so.
