Man, As an American i just want to live a comfortable life. I can’t do shit about the fact that a third if the country is rewarded and upset about stuff that has nothing to do with them because the richest told them to be. Fuck it man. You want to do something about it?
What is this Meta media literacy? Real talk though, I bet you could find the Christian equivalent if you looked hard enough.
Member countries would have to divest from the dollar first. We got everyone to use our currencies as a form of stabilizing politics and now we have a group of bad actors using that to their advantage.
I didn’t have a point in my statement. You and everyone else can take it easy with the geoploiticing. I’m aware that generally there isn’t anyone completely in the right in the middle east. I was just pointing out how interesting it is that I was condemning Iran not two years ago and wanting a regime change and now Isreal is picking this fight. I was tempering my own mental reaction. Things move fast and we forget things. A western puppet gov in iran might actually be good for its people. I just dont think the US should put troops on the ground. We all sit behind a screen and talk into the void picking sides and arguing about this and that but for now, it amounts to nothing.
Yeah it’s too bad the phrase “both sides” has become another trigger term for people. You legitimately can’t say anything anymore. Tribalism is a real problem online. You used to be able to have opinions that differered from other people. On principle I understand wanting to advocate for human rights. But bad actors have turned what should be a forum for discussion into what amounts to a binary rap battle. It’s online gang warfare that’s been cultivated to stop communication and growth. It’s gross. Life is complicated and we can’t always be right but we can always try our best.
That makes sense. It’s funny how people have forgotten the women’s protests of a few years ago and are quick to jump to Iran’s defense. They may not be the aggressors but as a country they aren’t innocent. They have their problems. Russia trying to get their hegemony makes sense.
War doesn’t have limits. It had suggestions.
It’s Linux for me but I also have to assume tablet culture plays a role too.
