And you’ve done what exactly?

The west

Are authoritarian regimes somehow supposed to be more opposed to using children to promote heightened surveillance?

Dude like half the kids at my school didn’t say it. For some reason, I would only ever do it after the 4th of July - I guess I figured they could have a week just not every day?

I can’t exactly say I love the fact that we nuked Japan, but the diameter of the Fat man was about a mile, and google tells me Peleliu is about 20 square miles in size. Would waiting, and glassing an entire island have been a better choice? Loss of native life would still be awful, but magnitudes less than the real bombings.

I like star wars , but yeah similar boat. Far Cry 3 was real fun the first time, it’s still fun now but I can wait for the star wars coat of paint at a discount.

Is it? I know it goes further than this, but the idea of serving ads based off what users are subscribed to feels like one of the least awful ways this could be implemented. The same way your feed is generated, your pool of ads is drawn. It feels wrong to say this, but this doesn’t really bother me.

Instead we chuckle at a message of violence and wonder why people get radicalized.

Private companies can be dicks. Public companies can and will be sued by their shareholders if they aren’t big enough dicks.

The disconnect is you seem to think it’s a black and white thing. That one must love Hamas if they disapprove of recklessly bombing civilian encampments. Surely if these allegations were fake, Israel would be more than happy to disprove them? To not, I don’t know, protest violently for their right to horrifically mistreat Palestinians when reined in even slightly?

It is senseless to damn every living person in gaza for the actions of one group.

Also, it feels real questionable to talk so much about the Palestinian president without addressing Bibi - I highly recommend the behind the bastards episodes for anyone unsure what his deal is.

That’s cool granddad, you must be such an open minded and pleasant individual

If I ever do one of those “watch everything in order” things, I might just watch episode 5. The fight scene was sick. Given how inconsequential the story was, it would probably just feel like an episode of Visions.
