Right, I have been thinking about it too. It will open new set of problems, especially for 3rd world countries.
And USA is preparing for what's coming next:
Florida to consider relaxing child labour laws to fill vacant jobs

Also, developed countries are preparing for 4th industrial revolution. US AI chips cannot be used for training Chinese AI models. It means that the firmware will be under USA's control. It has its own consequences, i.e., complete control. They say future wars will be silent and fought on electronic front. China and USA is already battling over it.
Conventional wars will still be there, but drones and AI technology will be widely used. I read somewhere that in Ukraine-Russia war a new development in drone technology lasts up to 3-4 months, and one country find ways to counter it and vice versa.
The countries that have not developed their own AI models, have already been left behind.
Yeah I heard about the child labor changes. Funny thing is that the US has plenty of unemployed civilians, but they're not applying for the jobs because se the pay is trash(also because lots of the openings are fake). Companies just don't wanna pay more "because of inflation" and would rather hire kids who don't know better.
 
No-one gives a shit about war tactics from ages ago. Btw no, you were talking about starving people to death if they don't like you.
idk what you want from me, I was criticizing Israel’s actions in Gaza as being excessively violent and disregarding Palestinian life.

But unless you are a Mahatma Gandhi tier pacifist, I presume you are fine with war. I guess you are just upset that I suggested Israel take a more moderate approach instead of just dismantling their state(something they will never do).

Also don’t see the difference between leveraging a blockade to dismantle Hamas and BDS wanting to use economic warfare to dismantle Israel.
 
I met a chick who told me "I'm from Israel and hate my government BUT I DON'T WANT TO FREE PALESTINE"

I cringed so hard that my head crawled back into its spine and I metamorphosed into a tortoise.
the world seems so fucked right now.

In America, it seems as if the country is headed towards a dictatorship. I’m not sure if Trump will become the dictator. But he clearly wants to.

this creates a scenario where the dems either:
  • Need to become authoritarian themselves and seize the power before the right can install dictatorship
  • Essentially become a conservative small government party that is also socially liberal
In either case we are fucked.

Oh well, maybe things are better off elsewhere
 
Then use the ignore button to put me on ignore than rather poking your nose in my matters- it exists for a reason.
I don't need I am required to have your permission to post in a public thread.

Why do you believe starving people who don't like Zionist Israel is less violent?

You're absolutely right, it's a public thread -you’re free to post, just as I’m free to call it out when someone jumps into my exchange which doesn't even involve him and is clearly biased.


If my posts bother you or ruin your scrolling experience, the solution is simple—use the 'ignore' button and move on.

But if you were here just to take a dig, at least drop the act and say it with your chest out - instead of pretending to be the thread police.



Anyway, I have work so I will dip myself for sometime.

But before I leave, I want to express my view on Israel - Palestine because some people here have habits of reaching out to premature conclusions and then act on higher moral grounds.



Israel - Palestine

Israel has stood by us during difficult times.

I support Israel’s right to defend itself against terrorism and to pursue economic stability and regional peace.

However, friendship should never mean blind endorsement. I’ve long been a critic of excessive right-wing narratives in my own country which I will never justify to some online weebs who don't even worth my attention, let alone deserving of any justification from me.

Having that said, The relentless military campaign and excessive use of force by Israel, especially the indiscriminate bombing of hospitals and civilian homes, amounts to war crimes.

I saw children begging for death — not out of rebellion, but because they are starving, dehydrated, traumatized, and trapped.

The blockade has destroyed access to food, clean water, electricity, and medical care. Life has become unbearable for them.

Justifying attacks on hospitals and on residential places with unverified claims of underground tunnels is unacceptable and against Geneva Convention and International covenants on Human Rights.

Hospitals are supposed to be healing grounds in times of war - not a place to target.

Israel does have the right to combat Hamas, but that right cannot extend to turning civilian residential places into mass graves and come at the cost of innocents.

Thousands are killed, thousands are displaced and for the rest, life has become a nightmare of constant fear — "What if the next missile is meant for us?"

"Will we even get to have one meal tomorrow? "


This is not defense by Israel — this is devastation. This is emotional, psychological and physical torture going on.

It's a war crime.

It's a genocide.


Time to leave as real life matters more to me than emotionally investing myself on this forum. Adios

I don't see why I should ignore people, if I didn't want to discuss I wouldn't come to the political thread.

I think you are overreacting.

Because the bombing campaign is indiscriminate

whereas leveraging resources isn’t

Israel, at the moment, doesn’t even try to build alliances with its neighbors. It does everything it can to make them hate it. That isn’t stable.

Probably stems from Netanyahu being a Warmonger. But idk...
There seems to be alot of hatred between the 2 people even from before that guy took office.
