This is the right answer. Maybe put my own gear on before we head out!

Whoa there pardner.

That’s like going into a church and telling everyone you didn’t like Jesus at first, but warmed up to him once you read the Quran.

I disagree that leaving things unsaid is the best approach to online discussion, especially when it comes to soundbite level social media like Lemmy and Reddit. Doing this puts forth the position that only one thing needs to be said, which is underhanded and intellectually dishonest.

You’re absolutely right that both mainstream parties in the US are closely related in policy, so it is a failure of those arguing against the Israeli genocide to not call this what it is: a governmental policy problem, not a single party problem. Saying “democrat bad, support Israeli genocide” while ignoring the opposite party just because it is not in power is a failure to point out the root cause of the issue. If we don’t want to support any genocide, we need to make sure that no matter what party is in power, it doesn’t happen.

I’ll ignore the fact that you disagree with their economic policies for now and continue to focus on the fact that this is a systematic issue, not one that is beholden to one party or the other.

I’m not defending their actions. I’m pointing out that there are those that astroturf social media that -only ever point out the negatives of one major political party while completely ignoring the other-.

So since you seem to be reasonable despite your satire and snark, what do you think about the Republicans and how they would handle the ongoing genocide?

Or will you prove my point again for me?

There are certain actors on Lemmy that I’m betting will disappear after the presidential election cycle or significantly pull back their posting.

Basically fanning the flames of “democrat bad, support israel genocide” while also saying “republican not in power, can’t blame them!”. Genocide is terrible no matter who does it and we shouldn’t pretend Republicans would be any better. In all likelihood, they would be worse.

Were you being paid to watch that episode of The IT Crowd where they call French tech support?

I mean they indicate as such if you read the article…

Wow I haven’t thought of destiny of an emperor in decades. One of my childhood friends had a copy and let me borrow it. It took forever but I managed to beat it. Box art was weird but cool.

I’m apparently in the top 10% of restaurant reviewers simply because I do this everywhere I go.

I mean the last third of the series is a time skip, so they absolutely could come back in a few years and finish it off.

Yeah

An animated series like Rick and Morty? Sign me up

Heck yeah! Sliders is also a great series

Consider that there was an alternate timeline already with the mirror object. How many realities could there be where Earth was brutally destroyed, never found the Stargate, or was visited by another species before finding the gate. One franchise people often forget about is Fringe. It explored many of these concepts in an interesting way.

I will watch a new Stargate show no matter what.

Add in re-hiring those same employees at a lower rate or off-shoring to India to get 3x the head count for the same wage and that’s basically what’s going on.

Born in 1984 and I often use the phrase “one leg in the analog, one in the digital”. Mostly because I had to learn the Dewey Decimal system.
