I'm pretty sure the people of Rotterdam got pissed and it didn't happen?

This is the type of delusion that eventually leads to fascism any way

"Hey don't try to change anything because obviously only one of two people can win"

"Hey you have to change things from the inside of the party, you can't just have a third party even though every half decent western government has multiple parties"

"If you don't want to vote for a genocidal enabler of capitalism and class separation paid for by the same people who pay for trump/hitler, then you're voting for trump/Hitler"

"You have to bring the super nuts authoritarian fascists into the group, and exclude the actual left wing people who are screaming for basic decency and rights for everyone"

"Oh no how on earth did the crazy right wingers take over the entire country who could have seen this coming? It's totally not the fault of a governmental party that can't sort their shit out and take on policies that a majority of it's constituents want, but instead keeps sliding as far to the right as possible every time they have to move"

I normally point a gun at things I don't intend to shoot as well... That makes total sense

And look what has happened to the US supreme court in the last few years... That seems to completely disagree with your point. It has been stacked with very partisan judges by politicians looking to game the system

I make less than 100k a year and my dogs insurance costs about that much. I didn't have insurance for him before because he was young and healthy but then he tore his ACL and the surgery set me back 6.5K. That wasn't exactly a drop in the bucket for me, at the time I had less than half of that in savings, and had to max out my credit card. So now yeah it sucks having to pay that much but if he does get a bad injury or illness - obviously I really hope that doesn't happen and I have him for many more years to come - as he grows older, it will cost me way less as a lump sum.

You're just making complete straw man arguments right now because I never defended the US once in my statement. I said Israel is running an apartheid state and maybe Hamas wouldn't be an issue if they weren't.

Yes the US is distinctly involved in Israel and the repression and genocide of the Palestinian people, and has been since 1948. However, that does not take away any blame from the Israelis being a violent apartheid state committing a genocide. And yes, I absolutely do blame them for being racist because Israel was the one who has created the conditions for this and every previous war in the region.

It is absolutely not unreasonable for people who were living in that land and were dispossessed of their land through no fault of their own, who are currently still being dispossessed of their land, and who are living in an apartheid, as they have been since Israels formation, to fight back against their oppressors.

By that logic the native Americans should never have fought against the colonialists and the Indians should never have fought back and killed any British. More recently by your logic Ukraine should not have fought back against Russia.

You have a right and an obligation to fight an invading power.

I think Israel not running n apartheid state would do a hell of a lot more to change the minds of Palestinians than anything Hamas says

Could you perhaps cut down on the number of meetings you have? I've found that 99% of meetings I get invited to could usually have been an email or a slack message, but then people just want to waste time talking to make it look like they're doing stuff instead of actually just doing stuff.

If the US stopped supplying Israel so would the others pretty fast

England has already started pulling back They don't get Chinese bombs

Israel does make weapons yes, but nowhere close to the level that the US does.

Again, the US has fully financed this genocide. If Israel could just make their own bombs at this rate they would not be getting billions every week from the US to buy US bombs
