It’s good. And the decision to have (or not have) kids is one of the few forms of power that the general population has over those in charge. If people are being squeezed out financially or have no hope for the future (e.g. environmental collapse), they may choose to opt out of reproduction.
The amount of bias, propaganda, and straight-up misinformation from western media regarding this “conflict” (more like massacre) is truly outrageous.
I don’t have any inherent support either side, and there’s too much history along with bias, propaganda, and outright misinformation to make a determination of who the “good guys” are, if anyone.
However, in such cases I will support the underdog on the principle that you don’t really want one side to have too much power over the other. That’s how we end up with things like ethnic cleansing and genocide. If Palestine (and Lebanon) had powerful militaries, you wouldn’t be seeing the mass devastation and huge loss of civilian lives. I’d prefer to see the sides more balanced so that they can keep each other in check.
Another angle to consider is that I consider the state of Israel to be actively harmful to Americans on the basis of:
using our tax dollars to commit mass murder against civilians, including a staggering death toll for children
infiltrating our government, interfering with our elections, and having an undue level of influence on American policy
corollary to the preceding point: they support getting Trump back into the White House
training American law enforcement, who then use their oppressive tactics on Americans
similarly, technology they develop for surveillance and other means of control being used on Americans
directly attacking our First Amendment rights
Bottom line is I’d say everyone sucks, but in different ways. But I am anti-Israel on the basis of them being way out of control (and without anyone to keep them in check) and due to the threat they pose to the American public.
There is a trade-off between efficiency and durability on incandescent light bulbs. They did sell bulbs that lasted longer, but those had lower lumen/watt.
For generic bulbs, the cost of electricity was significantly greater than the cost of the bulb. It was cheaper to replace bulbs more frequently than to waste electricity.
There should have been only one.
I got the same result, also not logged in w/cookies cleared.
I ran the test with DuckDuckGo and did get “can my husband find out who I voted for”, though it was near the bottom of the auto-completes.
Time for Matt Miller to spew some more BS
Assist Israel?
They aren’t the ones who need the help.
I’ll mention 2: Station Nightclub fire footage and a video of pigs being buried alive in response to a disease outbreak.
Lathes are no joke. There’s one that really stuck with me, I think at a Russian factory. “Dismemberment” does not accurately reflect what happened.
Israel is declaring war on free speech.
