How can you be so optimistic? With everything that’s going on in the world, I get more pessimistic everyday. At bad days, I’d just think “let just humanity perish because we just keep repeating the same horrible things over and over anyway”.
For me, personally, it’s more about the focus of votes vs actual discussion. I’m worried it would turn the tides and make people much more focused on the votes than actual discussion. It might make it echo chamber-ish.
I recently disabled showing votes on my side (through Voyager app). Even if I get downvoted a hundred times over, if I just get a respectful discussion with links to (trustable) sources. I’m all alright with that.
I rather not. If it does happen, I’ll just rss Lemmy and stop using my account. I like Lemmy the way it is because there’s not much focus on votes and more on actual discussion.
It sounds like you’re suggesting ethnically cleansing Jews from the region. How is that any better than suggesting that all Palestinians be moved to Qatar or Iran?
It sounds like you’re trying to “gotcha” and twists my message/ word thing and I’m not going to take that bait. I’ll block you and if someone else has an actual argument without trying to these bait stuff I’ll respond.
I firmly believe that there won’t be peace as long as Israel exists on Palestinian land. And before people claim random stuff on what I say; sure Israel can exist but not on Palestinian land while genociding the native people. For example, US is their biggest enabler and supporter… So perhaps they can allow Israel to exist within US.
I know, it’s wishful thinking.
Well they had someone who was not the mastermind and Israeli government assassinated that one.
Still playing Alan Wake 2 and it stays an amazing game. I’d think I’m close on ending the game though. Spoiler tagging just in case
I already nearly finished Saga’s storyline, all I have to do is the ending story for her. However currently busy with Alan’s story side before finishing Saga’s.
I abandoned Hogwarts Legacy because after 4 hours, I found it immensely dull. The story is boring, the gameplay is boring and didn’t find the exploration satisfying.
I guess after playing Alan Wake 2 and its DLC, I’ll replay Control with the DLC and await the sequel to Control.
I find it more bizarre that most of the world leaders are turning a blind eye to it all and keep the bullshit up with “right to defend themselves”.
Nothing of this has anything to do with defending.
As of today, I have it too. Was sick since Sunday and since yesterday some foods tasted like chemicals and kept coughing like crazy. So tested just to be certain and tested positive for COVID.
My country doesn’t obligate us to self-isolate anymore and such but just out of decency, I e-mailed the people I had appointments with to cancel it due to COVID. It’s up to them if they want to continue the appointment, reschedule or do it through online now.
I will just send you to my other comment: My own comment.
I’m genuinely curious if you even know the history of Israel and when Hamas was created.
The world is better off without Israel and why? Well because they’re the ones committing crimes since 1948 up until now (and ongoing). There’s enough news articles, books and historical evidence of this.
Your account is about 8 hours old (from when I made this comment), so I kind of just assume you’re trying to troll or rage-bait.
Any outcome where Hamas was permitted to live after October 7th or to govern Gaza was never going to be acceptable, and Hamas was unlikely to ever concede this.
7th October happens when you steal land and displace 750 000 people, murder along the way, create a apartheid state and humiliate a entire race. Hamas is a creation out of Israel’s actions. Israel is the core reason as to why there’s so much hatred and death.
Anything less than the end of Hamas would have been a terrible outcome for all sides. They’d regroup, rearm, and in a few years’ time they’d attack again, more civilians would die, and people would start clutching their pearls and warning about ‘escalation’. And in the meantime, the Palestinians in Gaza would have had to endure their brutal rule.
So you’re fine with Israel literally murdering, stealing land and humiliating Palestinian people. Apparently. However when these people literally fight back, it is suddenly wrong in your eyes.
Once Hamas has been sufficiently degraded, there’ll be some sort of regional coalition to rebuild Gaza with Saudi, Emirati and Kuwaiti involvement and US security guarantees, a deradicalisation process for the Palestinians there, and the construction of a civil bureaucracy. The international community will be pouring in financial assistance, except that this time it won’t be used to build hundreds of miles of terror dungeons.
Not true. Israel will never allow it. Their PM proudly boosted that he’s proud of not allowing a Palestinian state.
The West Bank is a tougher nut to crack. But Israel will have to deal with the Hezbollah Jihadis first.
You’ve proven to be an immensely Israel supporter and Zionist. You purposefully overlook Israel’s hateful behavior. A bit of history of your ‘‘precious’’ Israel:
Israel became an actual state in 1948 by displacing 750 000 Palestinian people and murdering many (men, women and children). Laying sieges, bombarding villages and population centers, setting fires to homes, properties and goods. Planting mines among the rubble to prevent any of the expelled people from returning (source: The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine by ilan Pappé).
Hamas did not exist until 1987, they became an actual group only in 1987 because of all the horrifying things Israel had done from 1948 up until 1987. Which is approximately 40 years after what Israel had done to the Palestinian people.
You ought to learn about history and political matters before you even write or speak about these matters. You clearly have no knowledge about the state you are so hard trying to defend.
Since you’re a Zionist, I will finish this comment with a list of sources of Israel’s action and then block you. I don’t want to read zionists stuff, I know you can still comment but that won’t be my problem.

He said something similar 7-8 months ago, I feel its more just talks than something that would actually happen.
Old video from months ago (with English subtitles); Erdogan: “We may suddenly knock on your door one night”
Seriously when is the world going to stand up against this terroristic state? When is enough?
There’s so many evidence about Israel and their genocidal behavior, their apartheid system, hate crime against Palestinian people. Yet nothing.
But when it is a European country, or Ukraine or the occupier Israel. It is suddenly immensely bad.
Just like Israel takes pride in murdering more than 37 000 innocent Palestinian civilians.
‘I am Proud of the Ruins of Gaza’ – Israeli Minister Tells Knesset
Or this one from 7 months ago; An Israeli soldier she wants to ‘kill more and more’ of Palestinians in Gaza
Just screw both. All of these should just be put into a one room and fight each other. Leaving the innocent people out of it.
You can keep downvoting as much as, you want. However, it won’t change the fact that the evidence backs up what I wrote. Your downvotes can’t hide the truth and it never will.
The world has going immensely nuts;
I’m seriously worried for the future.
You have not provided once with an actual source to any of the people (including myself) that commented to you. You are merely stating your personal opinion and I don’t care about your personal opinions. I care about actual facts.
Gaza was already an independant palestinian state, and it is a shit hole thanks to Hamas…
And guess who funded Hamas the entire time? Israel. It is a chaotic mess because Israel does not allow people to leave the open air prison. Hamas members only know war due to Israel’s behavior towards the Palestinian people, Hamas is a literal creation of Israel immense fascistic behavior to the Palestinian people.
For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces
Gaza: Israel’s ‘Open-Air Prison’
Anyone believing that Hamas would step down once a two state solution is achieved is dumb. Hamas is Iran puppet, they dont give a shit about palestinian…
And all you do is speaking with personal opinion which is drenched in bias. Hamas cares about a Palestinian state. That’s why they were created and are fighting against the tyrant. Against the illegal state Israel which is founded by displacing 750 000, murdering many along the way. Israel is occupying their land.
If you want to discuss about history and political matters. You ought to be educated in it and not just having personal opinions. Read a book for example; ilan pape the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
Since you are only writing with bias and personal opinion and provide zero evidence, sources and facts. I will stop commenting to you and ignore you.
EDIT:
Gaza was already an independant palestinian state, and it is a shit hole thanks to Hamas…
I would like to state that Gaza never has been a independent place. The moment Israel settlers left, Israel made it an open-air prison. My second source proves this. So you are basically lying to try to get your personal opinion (drenched in bias) as ‘‘truth’’. That’s not how it works.
It doesnt work like that, Hamas wants Israel to be wiped off from existence and kill all jews globally, that is stated in their constitution…
It actually does. This happens when you massacres the Palestinian race and steal land since 1948 meanwhile making Apartheid, humiliate the Palestinian people, steal their homes, kill their entire families, acquaintances and friends. At one point, people will break and do anything to fight back. Thats exactly what’s happening right now.
Right now, Hamas killed all opposition and their propaganda is deeply rooted into the majority of palestinian population.
The biggest Hamas propoganda is Israel. Happens when you keep murdering entire families, steal homes, lands and do not give actual human rights to the Palestinian people.
It is clearly not as simple as getting rid of all these illegal settlers…
No, you don’t say? Thought it was! /s.
EDIT: Forgot to add this:
Death toll in Israeli attack on displaced Palestinians in Rafah rises to 45.
Israel prevents hundreds of worshippers from entering Al-Aqsa on first night of Ramadan.

Then get Israel out of Palestinian land and Hamas will stop existing. The mere reason Hamas became a group was due to all the terrible things Israel did from 1948-1987 and then in 1987 Hamas became a thing.
Someone once made a whole list of massacres that happened, I screenshotted it;
So you’re blaming Hezbollah for the current situation? You do know Israel has been refusing to ceasefire since the beginning of people demanding it, they also refuse to stop murdering innocent Palestinian civilians.
They (Israel) refuse to stop the genocide on Palestinians, they refuse two-state solution.
We could even go on about the entire situation from 1948-2024 and then let’s talk about “who does not think much about negotiations”.
Is it bad? Yes, indeed it is. It has been bad for a very long time.
