If you say so. To me that requires an expectation that this would be unusual, something that would catch the eye as notable, instead of just being perfectly in-line with the norms of the time.

tbf, Trump says a lot more random, off-the-wall shit than Israel does. Israel isn’t very random, much more cold and calculated. Not very satire-like.
country doing more of what country has been doing
No, not particularly Onioney.
It was just a matter of time, we’ve had automated vacuum cleaners for ages now.
Putting guns on them is a bit harder, you definitely want a well-tested system for that. But cameras is pretty easy.
I’ve already said, I don’t give a shit what an IDF officer says. I actually know better than to listen to military messaging. Yes they get weapons from us, but do they have to or are there other ways on planet Earth to get weapons asides buying from the US?
Still waiting for your Egyptian victory.
Perhaps you were talking about Yom Kippur, where if I recall Egypt and one other country (not Hezbollah) launched a surprise attack with the aid of advanced kit from the USSR, gained some ground and then were beaten back?
Quit believing dumb propaganda
Ooh, fascinating. Name me when Hezbollah and Egypt defeated them.
They won several wars in their early history, before getting an advanced air force, on the back of heavy infantry casualties. Again, you have no evidence.
What would a rocket barrage do? Kill tons of Israelis. Would that defeat the IDF somehow? We learned in WW2 that you can level cities, but the country will fight on. What can Iran do asides fire missiles? March through the two countries in the way?
I am not the one living in fantasy. I am not the one just conveniently believing dumb shit spoonfed to me for someone’s political purposes.
Yes, they get a lot of weapons from us, no question. It is very advantageous for them to do so. The question is, do they have to? You seem to think yes, but have no evidence to support that. Nor does it make any sense, except with regards to the most advanced weapons.
Plenty of other countries manage to get weapons without getting them from the US.
Do the bulldozers need to be armored to do work enabling the genocide of Gazans? No, right? You cannot seem to distinguish optional things from requirements. Necessities from conveniences. Why is this?
That article quotes an IDF officer, whom you just believe all of a sudden, just because he says something convenient to you. This is very foolish, he is an officer participating in a war, and will say what he needs to or is ordered to say.
Bulldozers can be purchased in many places, they are not difficult to build.
edit: Oh, and I almost forgot, but Israel imports more from China than it does the US, as of the latest data I can find.

It’s a good pressure mechanism, but again, it wouldn’t save Gazans unless used strategically. Machine guns and bulldozers could eliminate them all, fancy bombs are not needed. It’s a tightrope walk.
They don’t actually need interceptors either, incidentally. Netanyahu gives no shits about his people, if a few thousand die in rocket strikes, I doubt he cares if he gets Gaza in the end.
Oh, and we don’t actually supply all their stuff btw, just a lot of it.
Yes, we are helping protect Israel, no question about it. We have treaties with them. Hopefully they come to their senses and throw out Netanyahu soon, the protests against him have gotten pretty fucking huge recently. I’m less hopeful on that one though, just keeping my fingers crossed.
So you starve them. See how that works? There’s a small amount of food aid getting in, that’s how they’re not all dead yet. You cut that lifeline.
Anyways, still not seeing how Biden is the reason it is happening.
Also, I find it funny that you suddenly believe the IDF when they say something you think might be convenient.
Yes. More specifically an ethnic cleansing.
Answer the question. In what way is Biden like Hitler?
Yeah, crazy spin is all you have left when you have no facts or arguments. The Holocaust and Gaza are nowhere near comparable, and Biden isn’t hamas or Netanyahu.
So, in what way is Biden like Hitler?
Biden was a good candidate, just too old, that’s all. He’s saved far more Palestinian lives than anyone in your movement did, though. You want us in the West to divest, at which point nothing holds Netanyahu back from just completely cutting the last of the food aid and finishing the job in a single month.
You just don’t know how to recognize a messy, ugly, harm reduction scheme, instead preferring some sort of purist, noble-minded alignment driven by wishful thinking and based on a misinformed concept that Israel would somehow magically fall apart without the US. When they’re really just using us, because it’s conveniently their best option.
The ugly reality is, though, that you don’t actually need big bombs to kill all the Gazans. Or even defeat Hezbollah honestly, considering they’re outnumbered 4 to 1 by the IDF. And no, the Sunnis will not all rise up to attack Israel alongside a Shiite militia funded by a regional rival to the Sunnis, regardless of your fantasies. And that’s not even mentioning the modern Israeli nuclear arsenal.
So sick and tired of you tearing down what you don’t understand because it doesn’t fit your childish views of somehow saving the day. It’s not that easy. Biden did the best anyone could have, in an ugly situation. He kept Netanyahu strung out on a line, needing us, and was able to stop him before Rafah by withholding those bombs.
The man deserves some understanding for how many people could have died if he just did what you all ask for, because Netanyahu would not have just sat down and stopped. Not so long as he still had bullets for machine guns, hand grenades and bulldozers, which is all that’s really necessary to wipe out every last Gazan.
Now, I’m sure she’s pretty used to the fame, but that’d still have to be a little weird for her to read.
“Remember that everyone poops. Visualise someone famous on the toilet (like Taylor Swift),” is the first recommendation.
Yeah I caught that when I reread your comment. I made an edit, just a little too slow.
Oh, I see. Still not seeing a big incentive for big tech, those meat bags are providing free labor. No strong need to replace them.
edit: Oh wait, you’re talking about paid ones. Nevermind.
Why would big tech ever want to get rid of nasty meat bags when nasty meat bags drive much of their engagement and thus increase their advertising revenues? We can’t escape the realities of how the human brain operates, how much it likes to be stimulated regardless of the qualities of the stimulus.
I think a much more logical goal would be to take just enough action to avoid most (but not all) legal consequences while otherwise encouraging as many nasty meat bags to encounter other nasty meat bags with opposing viewpoints as possible. That would maximize brain stimulation, increasing engagement and thus revenue. This improves the stock price and makes your boss happier with you.
I don’t really do the shame thing, it doesn’t work whatsoever on the shameless, which is a very high percentage of the global population unfortunately.
Regardless, the question is not whether we’re normalizing it, but whether it is their pattern of behavior or not. Not that it’s acceptable, but that it’s predictable. Just because they don’t act how other people act doesn’t mean everything they say seems like satire. Imo at least.
