That isn't exactly related to what we're taking about. I'm not saying stopping the use of oil is bad, I'm saying it requires changes for the individual

Yes oil companies have lobbied, you also have people in industry that aren't going to vote to remove their own jobs either. Makes it tricky. I don't think we should have allowed companies to get away with this btw but historically I'm not sure public support would be there

Yes but you still need to implement that change. You have to change millions of people's houses to switch their type of heating And replace cars, etc It will require huge changes for individuals, you can't just turn off the big oil companies as nice as it would be to have a simple fix

Ah damn good point forgot leftists had actually lost their minds and forgot that abstaining from voting is basically endorsing whoever wins

That's interesting. I've never had any issues with systemd directly mainly with poorly setup default configs I'm a big fan of a centralised place to manage services. Works super well with podman quadlets

But I'm not too invested use whatever works for you I reckon

What are the systemd bugs that are so bad? I kinda get the bloated comment, but I don't really mind when it serves its purpose

Just to cut your tirade short. The irony of the "bro you just fell for propaganda", is that you're literally doing that except on the other side I have no illusions about Israel. They continue to do some pretty heinous shit, including their expansion of settlements, which I believe they are continuing in the dumbest move of all time

But to remove all context from how this region got fucked to begin with is stupid. The Nakba wasn't some random event, it was during and after a civil war in the region, at a time where arguably both sides had good reasons to fight. The Israelis needed somewhere to live, and had been given it by the British government, who maybe shouldn't have but it was tricky anyway. And the Arabs on that land (now Israel/Palestine) fairly reasonably didn't want that, and decided they should attack them instead of live along side them as an Arab majority mind you

I just don't think Hamas is a good solution to the conflict. The only way I see of moving forward is to fuck Hamas off, hold an election and move towards a 2 state solution. But even that's hard as the majority of Palestinians think that they'll get their way via military action, which is definitely not the case

I'm really curious for you, do you think Palestine are completely innocent in this conflict? Is it really as straightforward to you as Israel bad?

To say Israel has just been oppressing Palestinians for 75 years is reductionist and doesn't take into account any of the reasons for conflict over that time

Didn't that minister actually say the conditions weren't right at the time. And in Arafats place he wouldn't take the deal. Not that the deal was actually bad? And that's rhetorical, I'm 80% sure without actually pulling up the direct quote

A blockade is not necessarily an act of war. If attacks are being launched from part of your country and you block certain goods going into the region I'd hardly call that an act of war

Can you point at a time Hamas legitimately put forward a reasonable attempt to negotiate?

Truly I think if Hamas ceases all hostilities and Israel continues then the UN will actually take a hard stance against Israel

It's just hard to completely condemn them when the opposition has been firing shitload of rockets at them for ages. Like what should Israel do? Give in to demands made by what is essentially a terrorist group that hasn't negotiated in the past?

As soon as you convince the republicans yeah. Seems like America is stuck because so many people genuinely don't want it Which must be the most annoying thing ever, seems insane

That's not really an ad hom. I don't think you run a petrol station, so I'm not calling you a moron

It just economically make no sense that you'd have 3 different businesses that close together with wildly different prices. Like who would ever go to the expensive one? And why?

I actually don't believe you. $1 difference in petrol price and people still go to the expensive one? You'd have to be a moron surely

Right, but the in order for the other station to not go out of business they have to match. But are incentivised to beat that price by a further 10c to increase the amount of business they get See where I'm going?
