    Twenty thousand child blown up, or shredded by shrapnel, or buried alive in a year. Multiple torture camps that keep civilians and doctors tied up tight enough that limbs are amputated regularly, the regular intentional targeting of medical personal, an apartheid government based on race.

    That’s what you defend.

    I don’t agree or like Iran’s government, but I don’t want a war with them. It says so much to everyone here that you read that as supporting them.

      I don’t agree with or like Israel’s government, which I have stated publicly multiple times.

      I’m not sure what you are trying to accomplish here, or what your obsession is with a country that existed for a dozen or so years half a century ago.

        I try and raise awareness of biased mods when I can.

        The Rhodesia option is the direction the Israel government and people have decided to take.

        Morally they are the same thing. Defending one is the same thing as defending the other.

        Apartheid governments are intrinsically racist.

        I just scrolled through three months of your posts while waiting for my wife to wake up, and had to stop cause that is boring as hell. Ugh. Not doing that again.

        I found a single critical post of Israel when they intentionally killed the American woman in the west bank. But you didn’t acknowledge that they lied about it before acknowledging it, or that or was obviously intentional.

        That is it. Now, I didn’t go the full year, so maybe there were comments before that.

        I did find out about the Futo keyboard though. So thanks for that.

        Also, just a heads up, Thunderbird for android has inserted trackers. The ui of fair email isn’t as nice, but at least it isn’t tracking you.

        And yeah, ‘say it ain’t so’ about Neil Gaimen. Why is it so hard to not be a scumbag?

        Also, the movie tusk was horrible.

        … Just out of curiosity, and not a pointed question like the Rhodesia one, but how do you feel about New York City/State?

          Netanyahu has been a criminal for many years, not just the past 3 months. His far-right partners should be disturbing to anyone who cares about freedom and human dignity. I’m not going to scroll through old comments to find examples for you though.

          I like Thunderbird. They use telemetry in a way that is pretty standard, and it can be switched off completely if you don’t like it. I understand the philosophical objection, but I support the project.
