Also it has invaded Lebanon like 5 times in 50 years and did terrorism on Lebanese soil for even longer.

They act like somehow hezbollah just popped out of nowhere and attacks unprovoked. Israel is the reason why it exists and it's continued occupation of Lebanese territory and constant violations of its sovereignty is why the conflict keeps on.

Fuck me I didn't think about that... owning your own implants? Goddamn!

That's the best fucking response I heard to that in a long time. I wish I could upvote more than once.

Right wing woman haters are the same the world around.

The worst part about the world order after WW1 is when the British and French fucked over their Arab allies with the Sykes Picot agreement that screwed up the middle east, and how they betrayed them that allowed the Saudis to take over Arabia.

The world would have been a very different place if the Hashimites took over Arabia. The whole Middle East would have been like Jordan, stable, peaceful, low crime, and wealthy. Also women have a hell of a lot more rights and being gay is legal.

But we HAD to live in our time line and have idiots draw borders with rulers on paper without any regard for what will happen.

Kinda like how software crackers have a pirated version of a game ready to go within hours, regardless of the encryption.

I guess that does make sense.

That came to mind, too. If this shit isn't open source it is not worth spit.

This is something I wish cyberpunk media touched more on.

One thing I always thought about when playing cyberpunk 2077 is why wouldn't companies have a failsafe for their equipment being used against them. In the game, you can use cyber decks from Arisaka and Militech and be able to hack and assault their infrastructure and employees with impunity.

I am not really sure companies would allow that...

They NEED shit like that to exist. Bullshit needs more bullshit to survive. This is why despite murdering countless people and endless campaigns funded by billions of dollars there are still leftist movements that won't die.

113 years ago the Triangle Waistshirt Factory Fire also killed a fuckload of people... and the owners got off scot-free.

What scares me is that the US and Canada Postal services might turn private... and trying to make them public again would have someone insist on debating 'but how are we going to pay for this incredibly expensive service? It failed before' when nothing about that was ever remotely true.
