You literally just described a settler state, complete with using reproduction as an occupying tactic.
Israel, the state, is illegitimate and needs to be dissolved. The Israeli people can integrate and co-createba society with the Palestinians or they can GTFO. Any that stay to explicitly disrupt this and form reactionary movements can get rekt.
However, as you say, this reality won’t stop the genocide. So a two-state solution is the most likely interim step.
And what’s the situation with non-Chinese phones? Given the Snowden revelations and our understanding of US military intelligence projects for the last 50+ years, I would say every phone is likely irredeemably compromised. Just look at what the US did with Siemens phones and literally every embassy in the world.

Yes. That’s it. Yes, there can be some problems with formatting. The most common one, though, is fonts. Try it out and see how it goes.
Also, you can open it in Google Drive. But that’s not privacy respecting
It’s for engines designed for high pressure, this usually but not always involves a turbo. The higher octane allows greater compression for greater torque at higher RPMs.
It can be fully end to end encrypted and still drop keyword-based metadata into the envelope. But also, I am pretty sure that the feds can access the keys if they need to. It’s e2e encrypted, but that doesn’t mean the key stays on your device.
This is why hexbear disabled downvotes, because it requires the would-be downvoter to engage
Uh, the US has vetoed multiple attempts by the UN to condemn the glorification of Nazis. I hate to break it to you, but Nazis and racists are not illegal.
The solution is not centralization, the solution is a protocol. The team at Flattr tried to do something that worked for content, but it was centralized. The team at Ganxy tried to expand the definition of monetize, but it was centralized. If we had a protocol where teams could publish metadata that enabled users to use any data-driven app to generate some form of compensation for the contributors, then we could build all sorts of workflows into package managers that made it easier.
Not really though. The workers don’t control the state, the owners do. The workers can’t actually use the state to advance their interests. Every concession given to them by the owners is a) only given if the alternative is revolution and b) rolled back as soon as possible. Once the workers take over the state, taxes no longer serve that purpose but instead serve the purpose of smoothing out the money supply to avoid hoarding and accumulation.
Yes, in theory it would be great if we could tax the rich, but history shows us that we cannot, and ultimately theory has shown us the same thing.
Taxes are completely fucked. Here’s why.
ALL of the wealth of a society is produced by workers - they do the mining, the harvesting, the planting, the refining, the quality assurance, the distribution, literally ALL value is produced by the workers.
The owners got togther and formed a country. Not the workers, not “the people”, only owners formed and organized the country. They chose a private property regime because they now own all the wealth produced by workers. 100% of what workers produce under an employment regime is owned by the owners.
But the owners can’t sell anything if the workers can’t buy it. And the workers can’t work unless they can support their needs. So the owners take a portion of that value they steal and give it to the workers.
Then, the government that the owners created take money from the workers in the form of income tax, sales tax, and property tax.
Then they create NGOs and spend billions of dollars (that they stole from workers, remember) to convince workers to DONATE their salaries to the NGOs to solve social ills created by the owners.
Then the owners use the government to maintain their own wealth structures and prevent the workers from threatening them. When the owners make mistakes that would cost them fortunes, they take the money from the workers taxes.
Then they realized that even with this scheme workers were able to buy and own things. So they used their government to change the rules again. Fractional reserve banking let’s a bank hold 100 dollars in cash and create 900 in loans. The bank loans this magical money to workers and the workers collateralize it by giving the bank on lien on their house. The bank now has a more collateral that they can use to generate 9x loan values from, and the act of generating that money causes price inflation in housing, which increases the amount of money the banks can loan out. The net result is that workers pay rent to live in their own homes and that rent goes to the owners who control the government. When this scheme runs into issues, the owners use money taken from the workers (a portion of what was given to them after everything was stolen from them) to smooth out any hiccups and keep the scam rolling.
So, no, taxes don’t make things better. Only completely dismantling capitalism and running the government for workers by workers and eliminating private property and profit will ever help the 99%. Everything else is a scam and a distraction.
No one seems to be to be too worried about how much bloodlust we’re seeing from all sectors of the USA and Europe.
My god you really do believe all this capitalist bullshit. Listen, things have material and labor inputs. Those material and labor inputs could be applied elsewhere, so there are opportunity costs. But the idea that the solution is to create extraneous services that can only be afforded by people who are hoarding our medium of exchange is missing the forest for the trees. If the real problem was that we didn’t have enough paper money to pay for shit, the communists have a great answer for that and it’s called abolishing private property. End of hoarding.
Now we have all the paper money we need because no one is hoarding it. And yet, and yet, we still have labor and material inputs and those inputs could be used elsewhere.
So NOW, under communism, we get to make decisions not based on what sociopathic hoarders want but instead based on what society needs. Do we need to figure out the safety challenges for gold plated toilets on Mars, or should we maybe focus on some other aspects of space research. Because if we follow what the sociopathic hoarders want, we’re not getting efficiency, we’re getting maximal waste.
No, it doesn’t. It speaks directly to it when it mentions the things it supports about space research. It then goes on to say what it doesn’t like, which is space imperialism, space warfare, and space privatization for profits. Learn to read.
Wait until you learn about the falling rate of profit! Oh I’m so excited for you!
Something about if you die in an accident the payout could be larger than if you survived.
It’s not that. It’s that they can deny the payout if you broke the law.
It makes a lot more sense if you stop believing in the fiction of objects. There are no objects. Particles are a fiction, waves are a fiction. There is a single process, that we call the universe, and every single thing we refer to is a portion of that process from a subjective perspective. Once you give up on objects the idea that a process can be observed to produce subjective experiences that appear to violate expectations of object-oriented conceptual frameworks becomes less difficult to grasp.
This is a misattribution. Nazi officers were protected, transported, and given new lives by the US military and the Vatican working together.
