It’s good. And the decision to have (or not have) kids is one of the few forms of power that the general population has over those in charge. If people are being squeezed out financially or have no hope for the future (e.g. environmental collapse), they may choose to opt out of reproduction.
The terrorist state of Israel. Anyone who supports the state of Israel’s actions at this stage of things is a terrorist sympathizer.
They seem to go out of their way to do that.
And when I talk about Israel being a direct threat to Americans citizens, this is part of what I’m talking about.
Yes, I know this happened in the UK and not the US, but the principle still applies.
Getting really old and also going to backfire spectacularly. Israel has pretty much completely lost support of younger Americans (can’t speak for UK). Once those younger generations age into politically power, we’re going to see a major shift.
The amount of bias, propaganda, and straight-up misinformation from western media regarding this “conflict” (more like massacre) is truly outrageous.
I don’t have any inherent support either side, and there’s too much history along with bias, propaganda, and outright misinformation to make a determination of who the “good guys” are, if anyone.
However, in such cases I will support the underdog on the principle that you don’t really want one side to have too much power over the other. That’s how we end up with things like ethnic cleansing and genocide. If Palestine (and Lebanon) had powerful militaries, you wouldn’t be seeing the mass devastation and huge loss of civilian lives. I’d prefer to see the sides more balanced so that they can keep each other in check.
Another angle to consider is that I consider the state of Israel to be actively harmful to Americans on the basis of:
using our tax dollars to commit mass murder against civilians, including a staggering death toll for children
infiltrating our government, interfering with our elections, and having an undue level of influence on American policy
corollary to the preceding point: they support getting Trump back into the White House
training American law enforcement, who then use their oppressive tactics on Americans
similarly, technology they develop for surveillance and other means of control being used on Americans
directly attacking our First Amendment rights
Bottom line is I’d say everyone sucks, but in different ways. But I am anti-Israel on the basis of them being way out of control (and without anyone to keep them in check) and due to the threat they pose to the American public.
You go too far!
No, I had it right the first time.
Of course they are. No lives matter when there is money to be made. The pursuit of profit overrides all other principles.
Maybe they could make .io into a 3-character gTLD by adding a character to it. Moving all of the websites (except those actually relevant to the territory) over to a new gTLD in unison seems like it would reduce confusion for the people who use those sites. Knowing that acme.io is now acme.iox (or w/e) would make it easier on everyone.
What does it mean when a “democracy” supports genocide?
I believe so, and that is a really bold thing for them to publish regardless of one’s opinion on the situation.
If you don’t understand the purpose that it would serve and how it would help, I have no idea how could explain it to you. The benefit is self-evident.
everyone just migrating everything to a new TLD?
That’s what I’m suggesting. Make a new gTLD (3 character) for the defunct ccTLD to migrate.

The threat affects all email platforms providing web logins, albeit Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo and AOL are by far the largest
This is really just a generic article saying “be careful what you click on”
I think that’s where the divide is, and why my employer pays for everyone to have Microsoft Office but I use a free office suite. I simply don’t need the extra capabilities for my own personal use.
Microsoft expects me to pay for Office 365? No, fuck you, I’ve got LibreOffice and your older Office software still works as good. Your word processing program, Word, hasn’t really changed that much since 2007 or even 2003. Hell, maybe not since 1997!
Yeah, it’s a word processor. I don’t need a newer with more features that I will never use. Some of these might make sense for a business with collaborative projects and such, but your average home user doesn’t need it.
Some of them can also seem very gimmicky. “.biz” is particularly bad, as I think of it more alluding to showbiz instead of business. They should have made it “.bus” instead, it would have at least appeared more professional.
