Hella ironic to tell someone to "grow up" while attempting to virtue signal.

It's the word you use when you deal with Twitter people who don't go out yes.

Good for....you?

Yes because those people have real jobs and aren't bored fighting for a country they have zero affiliation with.

"McDonalds supports the genocide of millions of Palestinians by doing the usual business deals with Israel".
:whitepress:

They are not in the right to call the guy a POS for doing an ad lmao. Literal jobless behavior.
To think that some people have the nerve to talk in the name of a whole fandom/community is a new level of MC syndrome. Not everyone has to give a flying fuck about Israel and Gaza. Or any kind of political bs.
C4N just wants to get us to talk to him. I think his take are all just an attempt at getting attention.
And you all give him this satisfaction. Job well done I guess...

Bullets don't hurt. But Taxes do.
I think a necessary fact of life is you need to learn when it’s okay to stop caring about things.

@Uncle Van I'm sure as a cop you probably have to do this all the time.
It's pretty much a necessity. Bad things happen all the time, and anyone is capable of being the perpetrator. Those who look harmless can be crazy. Those who look crazy can be harmless. If you get too emotionally attached and sympathize too much, it has the potential to break you.

There's nothing wrong with acknowledging one's own limitations. You can care, but shouldn't dwell. You can bite, but shouldn't consume. You can walk, but shouldn't run. All you'll do is hurt yourself while helping no one.

Nah you're guilty by association apparently. That's why C4N keeps saying Inaki is a POS for promoting McDonald's in another country not involved in the war :suresure:
See, I know some people do it out of conscience or empathy.

But many do it for some other agenda.

Some do it for validations, acceptance and attention.

Some are just sheeps - they follow the crowd.

Some do it for views and money. Notice how such movements are often associated with those crisis which gets huge media attention.


And, I won't deny that boycott of big companies don't work. It do as it can lead to decline in foreign investments in Israel.

However, this is double edge sword - they won't get investments from Israel either and since these companies suffer significant loses, they start laying off which means rendering comman men jobless - who basically have nothing to do with politics but just working to earn money for their families.

And, to make it worse, these people start harassing online anyone who voices or act differently.


But let me tell you something more interesting...

In second quarter of this year, investments in Israel actually increased.

US has given record high aid to Israel since October 7th.

Israel trade remains good with two biggest market in the World - China and India.

European countries like Germany and UK are contributing significantly to Israel.

At the same time, these countries are voicing concerns for Palestinians.

It's all about Geopolitics and economic flow and it will go on.

Explain that to people that see reality through tainted glasses...

Bro, Hamas are the baddies, but Israel is doing shady things in this war too. Yet, i would say Israel still holds the moral high ground over Hamas.
 
This is not comparable to a decades long geopolitical conflict happening on the other side of the globe
There is no comparison. The point is to question your refusal to take responsibility in front of a moral imperative created by an oppression.

Where is your limit ?
Where do you start to care ?
Etc.



Online morality police - let's boycott
companies who are supporting Israel regardless of how many people who basically has nothing to do with the crisis would go unemployed....


But here's the catch...

Just US alone under Biden - gave 20B$ foreign aid (and this is military aid and not counting economic aid) to Israel in last one year.....one year....
The point is to boycott just a FEW target. NOT all of them.

C4N just wants to get us to talk to him. I think his take are all just an attempt at getting attention.
:risiup:

Well, if you want to live in society and if you want for people to care if one day you are in their situation, yes, everyone need to care.

That's the deal.. and the moral imperative mate.

:kayneshrug:

Hamas are the baddies, but Israel is doing shady things in this war too
Like wow... A genocide is now a "shady thing". And a resistance movement in front of appartheid is "the baddies".

LMAO

They both did horrible things mate. But can you stop doing like Israel is not colonizing and oppressing an entire population right now on top of genocidizing them ?

Explain that to people that see reality through tainted glasses...
Ironic..

I don't think there is an institution more obstructed by its structural biases in front of reality that the police...
 
And who gets to decide which?
BDS

:kayneshrug:

The movement is strong, well directed and influencial enough to make the right calls. So unless you have a better organization, this one is the one we must follow.


I would like to talk about our perspectives on it so we can know what we all think can talk about it more clearly,
I see.

For my part. I consider this situation a problem of colonization and appartheid. This colonization must end.
 
BDS

:kayneshrug:

The movement is strong, well directed and influencial enough to make the right calls. So unless you have a better organization, this one is the one we must follow.
So you are saying the cause with the most vocal supporters is the right one precisely because it has the most vocal supporters? And boycotts and activism are only legit if they are led by an organization?

I'll repeat myself:
The absolute state of the left these days:lawsigh:
 
No, it's the right one because it understands perfectly the problem and has the best strategy. That's all.

Don't blame me if you can't accept that.

:kayneshrug:
No I understood very well. You don't think for yourself and let the majority decide what to think because you prefer the feeling of being in a crown over actual critical and independent thinking skills.
Well, if you want to live in society and if you want for people to care if one day you are in their situation, yes, everyone need to care.
He's an afd voter, those guys don't care about anyone but themselves
 
Media =/= science.

And doctors tell you about it before getting the shot as well (at least in germany, and i would imagine in most countries where you can sue them if they didnt inform you properly)
Doctors down here didn't say anything. The media was using guys like Faucci to propagade their BS. One scientist that worked on MRA tech got hos twitter account axed because he was denouncing the risks and lack of efficiency of the vaccine. Also, most people don't know how to verify stuff, so they follow whatever journalists and mainstream say. We got scammed.
