The thing is though, it's crazy effective.

Yeah but relevant to current tech events? Not that often.

It's complicated I guess.

Musk offering starlink access to gaza is tech news, him changing subscription prices for xitter is not.

I guess I just mean that a happening is not "tech" by virtue of musk saying it.

I'm not maintaining neutrality. I'm on the side that will condemn both Israel and Hamas for their shitty behavior. Don't do terrorism, don't do genocide.

You and I both know that neither side is acting ethically nor morally. My government's (and probably your's) aligment with Israel is about power, politics, and economics, not ethics.

I don't "support" gaza but I sure as fuck condemn israel.

You don't have to pick sides people.

Can someone give me the straight talk on why western countries, who usually at least try to look like they have the moral high ground, are falling all over themselves in support of Israel?

What is the non-conspiracy nutter reason why the US feels the need to provide billions of dollars in support to Israel?

Clearly actions on both sides are reprehensible, some more-so than others. There's no goodies and baddies here. There's aggressors, innocents, and victims on all sides.

This is the same chicken / egg thing as plastic pollutions.

Sure consumers choice of whether to discard or recycle a plastic straw is nothing compared to the decisions of corporations, but then consumers invest in those companies, buy their products, and elect representatives who do not hold them accountable.

Big tech has ruined the internet because people were willing to trade their privacy and their attention in order to watch gifs of cats playing the piano. I'm not "blaming" people for that - hell, I was one of them, but you can't solve the problem without understanding how it's perpetuated.

Widening the gag order sounds much more appropriate.

Although if idiots were to show up at the home of AG James you might reconsider charging Trump with whatever crime seemed appropriate.

If by "large Saltwater deposit" you mean "an ocean" then maybe. Pumped sea water? No.

That cheeky fucker just unleashed a shitstorm of biblical proportions on himself.

News about China is always feast or famine.

On Monday they own all batteries world wide, Tuesday it's economic apocalypse, Wednesday global domination.

I'm shocked.

It's a way to disable ad blockers.
