I do agree that it is settler-colonial project.

I also do not think land is the main purpose of the genocide. I think the extermination of Palestinians(and other Arabs) is the main reason, taking the land is a very good additional incentive.

But neither I nor You can know what happens in the heads of genocidal maniacs so we can only guess.

Dead people do not produce excess value, alive people do.

I hate to think that way but if you put yourself in the shoes of a capitalist exploiting Palestinians with the help of Israel I think would be much more profitable than killing them.

Just like in Germany during WW2 capitalist interests give way to fascism and hate.

Well IMO it is a bit simplistic to just toss it to capitalism.

I do agree that capitalists profit from wars and historically have started wars for profit, but the current conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza are a bit more complicated.

That is what I am saying it will become less profitable after years, we need climate change solutions now.

And most people are very good at ignoring cruelty.

A bit late to the party, but I use org mode files, Orgzly for my phone and syncthing to synk all files.

There should be a plugin for a calendar app, and it seems like a cool idea.

Good point, but the market is very inefficient system for determining supply.

And big companies have other methods for dealing with low demand like

  • Lobby the government (and the government will give in)
  • Just targeting rich people. It is known that they contribute to climate change much more than working class people. As long as the rich are free to do whatever they like the planet will continue to rot.
