Can’t two dudes suck each other off without people immediately jumping to “they must enjoy musicals”?

The answer in the article was actually “maybe.”

Crowd sizes are hard to estimate and all, but if it’s the upper end of the estimates then it was the biggest.

LMAO

A stopped clock is right twice a day. Netanyahu is an asshole, and Trump is an incompetent idiot. But Iran routinely proclaims they want to wipe Israel off the map. It’s not controversial to say Iran would be an existential threat to Israel if they had the capability, they themselves say they want to be an existential threat to Israel all of the time.

When authoritarian assholes tell me who they are, I believe them. So I believe Iran’s Ayatollah regime when they say they want to be an existential threat to Israel. So it would be super bad if they get nukes and there’s indication from the UN that they’re trying to build nukes. So they gotta go.

It’s not just Trump and Netanyahu that are idiots it seems the leadership of Iran are also idiots. Constantly going on about wanting to wipe out Israel while not being all that secretive with their nuclear program… what did they expect to happen?

And despite the incompetence from the likes of Netanyahu and Trump, it seems the IDF isn’t incompetent and are methodically dismantling Iran’s launch capabilities and their nuclear capabilities. Fordo is going to be tricky, but if Trump doesn’t drop the bunker buster on it, they can probably land some special forces to deal with that site.

LOL

What are you talking about? It was WWI that ended many of the Kingdoms of Europe, except for the ones that still exist today of course.

You never heard of the Congress of Vienna? Things were pretty much reset to how it was before Napoleon. I guess we got the metric system from the whole debacle, but that feels like something that could’ve been accomplished without 3 million people dying.

After what happened in the 40s it’s fucking insulting to say that holding hands can save the world.

When did the Germans try to do non-violent resistance? A bunch of people tried to assassinate Hitler (they all failed) but that would be more examples violent resistance failing. I don’t know of any widespread non-violent resistance movement against Nazis.

Oh great a conspiracy theorist.

Over think of this one? The government wants you to do violence because you’ll be easily hunted down and shot and Trump’s approval numbers will go up for protecting the public from the violent commies.

Something like the No Kings protests worries a guy like Trump. If he’s stupid enough to use violence against something like that it’s over for him. It would probably only need something around 25% more support and start doing some general strike kind of activities and Trump is done. The only way he can stop it is if he can associate it with violent nut jobs. Do you want to be a violent nutjob that helps Trump with this problem?

Do you think Trump would’ve won the election if weren’t for a nut job taking a shot at him? Violent nut jobs tried to take down Trump and they failed. Maybe let the sane people take a crack at dealing with him in a sane way.

So did that guy in Boulder Colorado. So do the “pro-Palestinian” idiots that protest synagogues.

I see the same antisemitic conspiracy theories that were spread by white supremacists decades ago being spread around by “leftists” now with just a lazy s/Jews/Israelis/g’ done on them. Or maybe just chuck in the word zionist in there somewhere when expressing hatred towards Jews not from Israel and suddenly antisemitism is hip thing in the “leftist” crowd.

Nah just the crowd that doesn’t read the news from the “lamestream media” and prefer getting the news from >30 second shock clips with zero context.

Nobody in the woke left is thinking that “the Jews are doing a genocide against Muslims”.

Three comments above yours:

which means it’s implicitly endorsing Israel’s genocide of Muslims.

I think that proves my point about people not reading anything and just reacting to things without considering context at all.

Wasn’t canadian bacon invented in the US? We don’t have it here in Canada, I think it’s just peameal bacon. Why do Americans call it that, do you put maple syrup on it or something?

Around here new cars have to have the lights on (but on a dimmer setting) whenever they’re running. It’s easier to see an oncoming car with lights on during the day when it’s foggy or rainy. In conditions where lights don’t improve the visibility of the road most people don’t think to turn them on simply because it’ll increase the visibility of their car to others.

So in places where lights are required to be always on, lights like these would only give a sleek look when the car is parked. Also aerodynamics are a consideration, and like you say they tend to break.

Just one of those fun little ideas that didn’t work out for a number of reasons.

Why isn’t this in shitpost community?

It ain’t WWIII, authoritarian regimes have a limited shelf life and Iran and Russia are past their expiration dates.

The markets are disconnected from reality. There’s a crazy amount of wealth at the top and they gotta put it somewhere. So it’s basically just a gambling site were rich people bet on what’ll happen next in a soap opera. Some of the rich people get to see the script before everyone else does. It’s now relatively stable because they’ve convinced themselves that TACO futures are safe.

The economic conditions are basically the same as in the late 1920s and Trump’s tariff policies are the same thing they were doing back then. But don’t worry about what happened 1929… TACO TACO TACO BUY BUY BUY!

So leftism is about wanting more comfortable public benches for the homeless to sleep on, while liberalism is about not wanting people to be homeless at all?

Do you ever get tired of needing to be outraged by everything all of the time and just want to be in a society where people actually work to improve things rather than just expressing impotent outrage? Ah but that would require doing work and leftists don’t want to do any work or they might be screamed at by other leftists for being “liberal.”

Is there an actual article about this or only a summary? Like what’s considered a verbal attack? A breakdown between physical attacks seems like important information. Did they only start gathering this information in 2023 or is there more historical data to compare it to for context?

You don’t understand geopolitics in general if you’re seeing everything from the ultra-atheist anti-religion perspective.

Interests are more significant than religious bullshit. In a theocracy religion is a tool the government uses to propagandize the public. Clearly Iran sees Israel and the US as enemy and they’ll use anyone will to weaken their enemies. Yup, they will even direct propaganda at you regardless of your beliefs if it serves their interests.

We can do a venn diagram of people that think Jews are committing genocide and against which group. White supremacists believe Jews are doing a genocide against white people, The tiktok crowd thinks Jews are doing a genocide against muslims.

Both of these groups hate one another despite the fact they’re saying basically the same things. Hopefully it stays that way, some really bad things happen when the Nationalists and Socialists realize they have common ground in their hatred of Jews.

They actually are.

Non-violent resistances have historically had double the effectiveness of violent resistance movements. Violent resistances generally just get a bunch of people killed and only makes things worse.

The reason is simple. It’s a numbers game. Only a few psychopaths want violence and those few are easily dealt with by police. Sometimes they can especially troublesome and need to be dealt with by the military (LA isn’t one of those cases, Trump is just an idiot). It’s only the very rare case that a violent resistance topples a government and in those cases it’s just replacing one group of authoritarian psychos replacing another group. The French revolution ended up with a King being replaced by an Emperor after a whole lot of people died.

Meanwhile a non-violent movement can attract more numbers. You only need single digit percentages of the population to participate in things like general strikes to make an authoritarian regime collapse. But you aren’t getting those numbers with a violent resistance, people have families to think about and violent resistances are easily vilified. An authoritarian regime can exercise violence against a violent resistance and kill it. If an authoritarian regime uses violence against a non-violent resistance it’s clear to everyone who the villains are and an every broader number of people will participate and subtle and secretive ways.

History bears this out, a violent resistances don’t work unless there’s foreign backing and even then it’s unlikely to succeed. Non-violent resistances have double the probability of success. Non-violent resistances are just about psychopaths that want to burn things down coming up with bullshit rationalizations for it.

A friendly reminder, being reductive only makes you sound clever to the ignorant.
