Today on Germany's public broadcaster: Iran shooting back is illegal, because the IDF headquarters is in Tel Aviv, where civilians live
The manufactured consent machine has become so obviously false, the shit they have to make up to justify Israel gets more absurd every day
Tbf, this is just declaration of intent to commit war crimes, not genocide.
Ahh well I guess that is fine then
"They are cowards because they attack civilians, and that's why we will do the same"
Great logic mate...
The irony, I hate this world 😑
And what kind of fucking universe are we living in where declarations of actual human war are sent over Twitter?
This one, I'm afraid.
How do I transfer to another server?
Hard reset.
Unfortunately there's no guarantee that you'll be able to get on another server once you've disconnected from this one.
You need an impossible GPA.
Those bastard elitists in the parallel universe only accept people with perfect grades
You mean the Deadiverse?
General rule of thumb: if you have to resort to emotional name calling, you’re in the wrong; even if your initial argument is factually correct, the moment you let your emotions take over is the moment you’ve lost your argument.
And no, I am in no way saying this person’s argument is factually correct; especially since his argument is based on hypocrisy.
Nah, fuck you. I gots all kinds of emotions, having emotions doesn't mean you're wrong or you lost. Attacking the person you're talking to usually signals you can't respond to the argument, but sometimes people legitimately suck ass and you gotta call them out for it.
That being said, Israel is led by mass murdering psychopaths and they can all trip face first in a three inch puddle and lose consciousness.
I don't think you're wrong, but your logic has definitely been used to silence people in real distress because "they had to resort to emotions" or some such.
The entire media revolves around emotional name calling. It is the most effective way to brainwash people.
Israeli "government" versus Iranian "regime".
Some people just don't have the capability to hold back, and I don't think it's necessarily fair to have their side lose an argument on principle just like that, especially if they do actually face an injustice. In petty drama like relationship issues there are techniques of coaxing the underlying problem out of people who wouldn't otherwise be able to articulate themselves, for example nonviolent communication. Its main system is that you find out via targeted questioning what emotions you're feeling, and which needs (satisfied or unsatisfied) contribute to those feelings (loneliness, sadness, frustration <- the need for human connection is unsatisfied), and why those needs are in the state they are (for example your partner has paid a little less attention to you because work recently became more stressful, or the current political climate is stressful). After figuring out the root causes you do some brainstorming to figure out targeted solutions, and often you can find solutions that satisfy everybody's needs. The key to it is its unique way of communicating with each other, which takes effort but is often exactly what you need. And as I mentioned, it often has a magical effect on people who somehow just can't seem to solve their own problems, usually due to chronic miscommunication. It's definitely a learned skill, but it helps a ton. 10/10 would recommend.
That is only true if you are in a position of power. The oppressed and frustrated can use all the insults they want because it is often the only way to be heard.
Israel is in a position of power because the US constantly backs them up, so it applies in this case.
Certainly dystopian, but not boring enough for this comm.
Doing it on Twitter is kind of boring
Fair enough.
It is the age old question "what if the Nazis had sociale media". And it changes basically nothing.
