It’s the god-damned DNC - of course they’re not going to mention Gaza. One would have to be a fucking moron to expect Gaza to be mentioned.

Switched to Firefox since Chrome killed Ublock Origin…

Probably wasn’t a good suggesting, anyway. Realistically, you need to talk to your parents. You can have an adult conversation with them about your and your partner’s wishes. If that ‘sours’ their attitude, then that is on them. Ultimately, your partner is more important than your parents so protect that relationship, first.

Move far away…

Gabbard is a brain-dead turn-coat only out for self gain/fame. She fits in perfectly with Trump, but will have zero idea how to handle Harris.

I have excellent private health insurance and I absolutely hate those fuckers… it’s only ‘popular’ in the sense that I’m not dead because I have it.

I went ahead and switched to Firefox which I can also use on my phone and now block ads there, too.

yeah, I went ahead and set it up…

Any recommendation for an alternative to Hangouts?

I’ll let corporate worry about corporate… I don’t want the ads at home.

Mostly inertia and other priorities…

Yep… when ublock quits working for me on Chrome then I will migrate.

uBlock Origin Lite, which is Manifest V3 compliant but doesn’t boast the original version’s comprehensive ad-blocking features.

Then what is the purpose/value of it?

Label it whatever you like… doesn’t change that you seem to be having difficulty understanding the fact that the American was a stupid-fuck and that they didn’t deserve what little press they got. You also don’t seem to understand that you’re making people less sympathetic to Gaza. The more performative bullshit like this that happens, the less people will care.

I don’t really want to discuss it… it’s a deepity. It’s something that sounds profound at first glance, but is completely revealed to be bullshit when seriously examined.

Short version: If you don’t want to have to vote for the lesser evils then you (and many others) have to get involved in the process long before the POTUS election. It would also be good to get rid of the archaic FPTP voting system and do something like RCV.

So many assumptions baked into this… it’s not worth the time/effort to debunk this stupidity.

Here is actual reality:

The next POTUS will be either the Democrat or the Republican. Right now that translates to Harris or Trump. No matter how hard you squint, no matter how hard you mentally masturbate, one of these two people will be elected. If you vote for Trump then you are helping Trump win. If you do not vote for Harris then you are helping Trump win. Choose wisely.

If you’re just going to lie then there is no reason to even talk to you.

said Sison. "This was only my second demonstration

Last Friday, Amado Sison, an activist from New Jersey with the solidary group Faz3a

Quit mischaracterizing what he was doing. It makes both you and the movement look bad.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

He was literally there as a protestor which he could have done from home and not been shot. Neither they nor you are helping the cause. I am sympathetic to the cause and this this stupid American is just a distraction from it.

There are smart ways and stupid ways to do that… this particular case was stupid.

Your lede should be what you actually want to talk about. I don’t give a fuck that a stupid American put themself in harm’s way and then got harmed. This post is dead… start one that is actually the topic you wish to talk about.
