Sounds like a legit and reliable story that's completely unbiased. \s

risk of Israeli war crimes

Can we ban this kind of disinformation and propaganda? There are hundreds of documented war crimes maybe more. I don't need this nonsense in my feed.

Iran’s proxy war with Israel

Can we ban this kind of false framing and propaganda? Kinda sick of this nonsense.

Ultimately there's no objective measure of whether "war is profitable". There's no objective definition of war. There's no objective measurement of the "sides" and their profit/loss, much less the nuances of who specifically profits or loses.

But total was is relatively profitable versus being destroyed. And it's absolutely profitable for a select group of people. Most often it's similar people on "both sides" that profit.

This is an extremely ignorant and privileged anecdote. Involuntary care would be fine if it was actually care. But what "involuntary care" actually means is cops attacking people, encaging people, drugging people, leeching and counter-productive "mental health care", pseudo-science, etc..

The actual root problems (lack of housing, etc) are never attacked because the state/cops serve the capital that profits. The system of profiting from human needs requires human deprivation and suffering.

My fellow commuters exchanged nervous glances or stared blankly out the windows, trying to pretend nothing was happening.

Nothing was happening. What kind of creep would call for a violent police attack on this bus? This dude is trying to pretend that the housing crisis and abuse of the unhoused doesn't exist.

We all need help, some more than others.
