I wonder why no other country needs this kind of affirmation? 🤔🤔🤔 hmmmmmmm what a mystery

Obviously, much like South Africa, the human rights council is just another legal arm of Hamas. They are an incredibly powerful and well connected organisation with widespread support in major institutions, humanitarian organizations, the UN and grassroots support across the world. How did they achieve this? 🤷‍♂️ but obviously if we acknowledge that this is an insane conspiracy theory we would have to admit all of crimes that Israel is doing and we can’t have that now can we

After his mother’s death in 1971 he started taking antidepressants and amphetamines, despite the concern of his friends, one of whom (Ron Graham) bet him $500 that he could not stop taking them for a month. Erdős won the bet, but complained that it impacted his performance: “You’ve showed me I’m not an addict. But I didn’t get any work done. I’d get up in the morning and stare at a blank piece of paper. I’d have no ideas, just like an ordinary person. You’ve set mathematics back a month.”

This is so fucking dumb. I don’t care, it doesn’t make what Biden is doing any better. This is not the voting booth

Yes but bad man is worse so it’s all ok, nothing to see here

Elden Ring! I think they really refined the formula, made it a bit more user friendly (I started with Dark Souls and it wasn’t easy to know what to do), and is generally fun to play. Also the open world format means you can just go somewhere else if you’re stuck, not just have to bang your head against the same boss over and over. Then you just come back when you’re stronger.

Sekiro is not a bad option too, it’s a bit more like a regular game than the others. You can pause! Imagine.

I haven’t played DS2 or Demon Souls though

He’s being consistently ignored about Rafah and then he goes for the carrot? I’m sure giving him what he wants will really help get Netanyahu out.

What he’s doing is public hand wringing, private support. If anything actually changes I’ll happily change my mind. I’d love to see it. But no, we get more dead kids.

Thanks Biden! Got to help Israel kill those kids. It’s very important work

At this time of year, at this time of the day, in this part of the country? Localized entirely within your kitchen?!

I haven’t downvoted you.

That said, there is clearly some crucial information you are not sharing. If you want help it’s better to be up front. I still don’t understand why you would report it now if he went missing 7 years ago. Why not then?

What actually happened when he left? What was his friend doing there?

Why was his friend there? What happened?

Were you living with your husband at the time?

So seven years ago, what happened? Did he just disappear one day?

How come you haven’t seen him in person in so long? How long has he been missing?

Not at all! I’m not even sure what you mean about the moderation.

Honestly I just know there are such people on Lemmy and their explanation for stuff like this is interesting to me. I don’t even want them to be banned in general, I can just downvote and move on.

I got an answer, though. So far “it’s crazy to think Israel would do that on purpose, there are many possible explanations” and yet the facts still stand and no adequate explanation of the facts seems like it could be acceptable

Any Zionists/supporters of Israel please feel free to explain how this is in any way acceptable

Fair enough. It is being used more colloquially in this case, you’re right. I retract the accusation of fascism and substitute “an unjust authoritarian crackdown on the right to freedom of speech and expression, undermining the very tenets of democratic society. A national embarrassment.”

So punishing free speech and protest is not fascist provided that they are “only” in jail for a couple of days? Seriously?

Obviously cracking down on protests doesn’t mean it’s 1930s Germany but it’s part of the same playbook, surely?

As always

I said the legacy of this will long outlast any positive action Biden has taken. Yeah people will probably vote on domestic issues (although if even a few percent don’t want to vote for someone aiding a genocide it is getting pretty tight for Biden), but this recent inflation or whatever will be a distant memory in a few years, while the genocide will not. The court case alone will take years to finish up.

Also under the genocide convention, it is also a crime to be complicit in genocide. So what happens if (ie probably when) the court rules in favour of South Africa? Biden is in the shit. Then he has to answer for HIS actions, as the primary backer of Israel. Not a good look.

I’m not saying “this is going to cost Biden the election,” which it seems you were responding to (even though maybe it will). I am saying “people will remember Biden as the guy who gave the bombs that they dropped on the innocent children and not that guy who had decent economic policy.”

If I was president this would bother me but maybe Biden doesn’t care ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Multiple State Department officials who have worked on Israeli relations said that Blinken’s inaction has undermined Biden’s public criticism, sending a message to the Israelis that the administration was not willing to take serious steps.

Public criticism, private support. The administration is complicit, and this legacy of aiding genocide will long outlast any positive action Biden has taken thus far
