You also immediately called them a nutjob followed by a dozen other insults. And you keep asking questions with obvious answers about exhaustively documented crimes and human rights violations, some of which the Israeli government isn’t even trying to hide.

Someone might get the impression you are not arguing in good faith and are trying to sow doubt and waste people’s time.

It’s funny how this argument puts sexism and the objectification of women, unfortunately very common and normalized types of behavior, on the same level with behavior that’s psychotic and fucking lunatic.

Who’s to say pedantry is useless? I’m learning new things!

defnetly

That’s a new one.

And the commonly accepted authority on the definition of mental illnesses is the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The current edition is referred to as DSM-5.

But now they openly agree, admit, and even brag that the cruelty was the point.

Trump’s tenure really exposes how many people work in various law enforcement functions apparently just for the privilege to humiliate and hurt people.

Is there any phrase more meaningless than “pro-America”?

Yeah but I won’t because I like dopamine.

I hope that you get a new administration in a little less than 4 years.

The Republicans aren’t destroying the rule of law and hand absolute power to the presidency, just to give it to the opposition on the next occasion.

It’s not quite that ambiguous. I find that when you’re willing to engage with fascist rhetoric and the underlying worldview, you can see the patterns emerge that these scholars have pointed out.

I absolutely agree that (neo)liberal western societies usually only engage with it in order to isolate differences to feel better about themselves. That was my whole point actually. If you understand it’s possible that a society or movement partially but not entirely meets the criteria for fascism, that’s an actual starting point for a conversation to counteract it. Rather than doing the fig leaf thing from above and say “see we’re technically not fascist” as an excuse to shut down that exact conversation.

While not exclusive to it, they are elements of fascism.

It’s funny that we have all these lists and essays and books on how fascist ideology and policy is a confluence of many such elements, yet people still act as tough “is this person/party/state fascist?” is a simple yes or no question with no gray area.

Still thinking and talking as sociopathic real estate developer.

You’d expect them to closely analyze the attacks and pour a few hundred billion into countermeasures though. Not exactly the same position that Russia is in.

Also because Putin needed a war to shore up nationalist fervor and distract from his failures and corruption. A classic play that almost always works.

I’m torn personally.

If I block these accounts, I won’t be able to downvote and report them anymore.

Oh I agree. I’m just not there because twitter was never my thing. Keep up the fediverse propaganda, comrade.

tbf he explicitly did both

Chances are it’s really just that, a start. See OpenAI.

The thing that it really has going for itself is that it simply isn’t twitter. And Muskler made sure that’s a huge deal.

Futureless or featureless?
