If there’s one issue, ever, that you should be at least a little “both sides” on, it’s this one.

There’s no way you can honestly argue only one side of this.

Serinus , to videos in Jordan Klepper Interviews Deeply Clueless Trump Fans at Rally Last Week in New Hampshire | The Daily Show

If you do, do it for Jordan Klepper’s wit. It’s truly impressive how fast he comes up with these and how deft he is at it.

I could do it in writing over an hour. He does it on the fly in seconds and is able to manage the conversation at the same time. It’s incredible.

Serinus , to lemmyshitpost in Apparently, it's not a gaggle.

Well, yes. Less working class people vote (as a percentage) than rich people.

Also the rich people help run ads telling the working class who to vote for. And that works often enough to be effective.

Serinus , to asklemmy in What was a profound moment that a video game caused you to experience, and why?

I was in M2-XFE. That whole experience certainly taught a lot about the power of narrative and propaganda. And the later blockade showed what leadership failures look like.

We always had the advantage in that blockade, and could have stayed there for another year had the allies stuck together. Or we could have executed real plans to break them and end the war. Instead we did the worst of both.

Do you consider that all of Israel?

Haven’t they done it twice before? Something like 2006 and 2014?

Serinus , to news in X fined $610,500 in Australia first for failing to crack down on child sexual abuse material

They refused to respond to an Australian government investigation. (Because Elon fired the two people who interfaced with Australia.)

The fine is not directly because they haven’t cracked down*, but because they couldn’t competently answer if they’re handling it at all.

(* and they’ve probably fired enough trust and safety people that they’re also having trouble there, but that’s not exactly what the fine is for.)

Wanna bet? There are ways to frog in a boiling pot this. And chrome isn’t the only browser that will support blocking Firefox. (They’ll argue Chromium is not Google, only Chrome).

    Serinus , to worldnews in Palestine-Israel Crisis Megathread

    This got more and more one sided as you went on. And it didn’t start out unbiased.

    There are no good guys here. If one in a few hundred Palestinians want to strap on a dynamite vest and kill as many Jews as possible, how can Israel live peacefully with those people? Does Israel have absolutely no right to defend itself? Israel surrounds Palestine, yes, but Palestine also surrounds Israel.

    Are you of the opinion that Israelites should abandon and move out of Israel?

    Israel’s one day notice to evacuate Gaza is absolutely insane, and will likely end in genocide. But that doesn’t make Palestinians the good guys.

    It’s possible to support the Palestinians but not Hamas.

    In sentiment, maybe. In reality? What concrete things can you do to benefit Palestinians that don’t also benefit Hamas? Hamas are Palestinians.

    That’s like saying “I support Israel’s right to defend itself, but not to harm innocent Palestinians.” You don’t get to choose. It’s a package deal.

    have been in a position to end the conflict for ages

    There’s only one way Israel can end the conflict. I don’t think you’re in favor of it.

    “Equally evil” is such a weird phrase. Who was more evil, Jeffrey Dahmer or Jim Jones? And I don’t think standing up for evil because the other side is more evil is any better of a stance than enlightened centrism.

    As a devil’s advocate, Hamas uses 100% of their capability for evil, even sacrificing their own lives in the name of religion to inflict the maximum damage. Israel doesn’t use 10% of their capacity, and has more justifiable reasons for doing so.

    This does not mean I endorse Israel. You’re right in that Israel causes more overall harm.

    Serinus , to workreform in Saw this on Facebook 😍

    I’m not really in favor of a wealth tax. Maybe, if we really need to claw back our mistakes, but I think there are better approaches.

    A tax on loans based on wealth seems great though. If you have the wealth, why are you borrowing? What are the legitimate uses of secured loans?

    Capital gains taxes should be higher than payroll taxes. Always and forever.

    Marginal tax rates exist for a reason, and it’s absurd that we stop progressive taxation after $700k. The difference between making $800k/year and making $15m/year is ridiculous. At $800k/year you at least want to make the business last for a decade. After you cash out for $15m in a year, are you really accountable to anyone?
