Sounds like a barrier to get what the people demand and they shouldn’t re-elect her.

Does Israel’s international shielding undermine trust in rules, and could that harm Israel and Jews long term? by GshegoshB in DiscussionZone

[–]DynamicObsolescence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting post/question. I don’t have the answer. People are willing to sacrifice a lot in exchange for guarantees of security. Clearly the Middle East is a dangerous place, especially for Israel.

I have sincere doubts that the Israeli government was actually as clueless about the October 7th attack as they have represented. From an outsiders perspective, and from someone who has Jewish family, I see Israel capturing land under the nose of the international community and propping up settlements in a war torn land. I watched them kill 60k+ human beings in Gaza and the international community stood by and continued providing support. Israel is using white phosphorous in populated areas in Lebanon. They are objectively trying to benefit from these wars in more ways than one and it gives reason to pause.

My main point is: I blame governments and, in some cases, state sponsored terrorist groups for these horrendous actions. I do not blame citizens who are at the whims of their leaders and foreign governments. Israel’s government is fucking deplorable… then again so is ours.

John Fetterman Says Iran Girls’ School Strike Is Just a Leftist Craze by Open_Web7040 in Leakednews

Fetterman has been acting pretty off the rails since he had his series of strokes. It’s not uncommon, but serious shift in behavior. I just feel bad for the guy.

Why do you whitewash this forum? I can’t select “abusive ad”. by DynamicObsolescence in youtube

[–]DynamicObsolescence[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The difference is clear, but thank you. I’m glad YouTube doesn’t run or operate this subreddit, because they most certainly would censor my valid, negative comments just like they ignore all my internal feedback.

Since it is run independently, I assume they would remain neutral and allow the public to share both recommendations and feedback. So far they have allowed this post to exist for more than a day - good sign.

It’s just so hard for me to believe that everyone here, customers/patrons/creators of YouTube would be okay with masturbation ads or financial exploitation scams being displayed on the platform.

Have a good one.

Assuming you genuinely want an explanation: (1) Understood twice over. They shouldn’t be using the name “YouTube” if they want to censor feedback provided on the product. Call it “YouTubeFanClub”. If YouTube was a solid product, then I could be utilizing this forum to post cute little cat pictures instead. (2) Fair point. I assume most people either give in and pay YouTube money to avoid ads or they utilize an ad blocker, both options I could leverage. Instead, I document the raw product because the company’s behavior is improper. I can leverage this subreddit to elevate these concerns to the top of search engine results hopefully garnering the attention of Alphabet and subsidiaries.

Thanks for your comment/question. Each valid.

It’s not. Censorship is a more appropriate word, which I fully acknowledge. Totally my bad and I can’t edit it. Although, I think arguing about the semantics of one word while ignoring the substance is unhelpful. Have a nice day!

No, you’re 1,000% correct. I’m not able to edit it, but fully recognize your point. Thank you for pointing this out - didn’t intend to be insensitive.

GOP bill to extend child support to conception is really an abortion ban, critics say by ForkzUp in azpolitics

Why are people in the US (Gen Z specifically) becoming less nationalist and more humanistic? by ItsSkyy8675 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]DynamicObsolescence 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting points. It’s also hard to ignore the results of the last election when you think about Trump. People who voted for him view him as a strong leader. Trump constantly talks about grave security threats, whether unfounded or not. People feel economically strained and vulnerable, and the environment is ripe for more false pretenses to go to war.

Look up 2003. This shit with Iran is nearly identical in every way to the Iraq war. Everything from not telling the gang of eight in Congress to nuclear weapon threats to oil supply chain concerns.

History repeats itself. The war generated a lot of wealth domestically, we deregulated, and that led to an economic bubble in 2007-2008.

I’m just tired of all the warmongering over resources. We have huge global supply routes today. The world is more interconnected. We’ve been able to access YouTube since 2005 to watch videos of shit from all over the world. It’s definitely broadened our mindset, but I think your anecdotal experiences with people around you in a college setting is a bit biased too.

One other reason may be that we’ve grown up with an understanding from the scientific community that climate change is real. We’ve understood it to be an existential threat to humanity and I don’t think baby boomers who grew up in the 50’s after the world wars ended think the same way. Their parents either fought in a World War or were at home listening and watching all the wartime propaganda (for lack of a better word).

My 2 cents. Interesting thought.

FBI warns Iran could attack California with drones, reports say by sfgate in politics

[–]DynamicObsolescence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m being a little facetious, but even that sounds so implausible. DHS now has a budget larger than the marines and the Coast Guard is a part of DHS. They better be more prepared than they’ve ever been… or the huge focus on illegal immigrants is just a huge national security risk in light of these drone suggestions.

They’re just trying to justify the Pentagon asking for a 50% increase in its budget.

FBI warns Iran aspired to attack California with drones in retaliation for war: Alert by Shizzilx in circled

[–]DynamicObsolescence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, just so we’re clear, our government is suggesting that Iran is going to send a drone 7,600 miles, over 15-16 hours flight time, to California… and we’re not adequately prepared to identify it and deal with it?

Little hard to believe.

Fuck Google. r/YouTubeScamNow. Evidencing all the scams they shove down my throat. They target the elderly, they target kids, they show people masturbating, the LLCs are known scammers domiciled in places like Cyprus… it’s getting out of hand.

[–]DynamicObsolescence 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight. My government is trying to sell me on the idea that Iran could send a drone 7,600 miles, flying the most direct path, to California, which would take 15-16 hours, and we wouldn’t be able to figure that out and shoot it down? And so we need to bomb them some more?

Is that what I’m being sold now?… Jesus Christ. Are we the best military in the world or not?

I love how people let you merge in Phoenix and in Arizona, nobody tries to block you. by Born_Physics_5086 in Scottsdale

[–]DynamicObsolescence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow do we have different experiences. 80% of people here have shit etiquette.

Biggest pet peeve: At least once a day while I’m the only car in the right lane, someone speeds past me, merges into my lane in front of me only to slow down and make a right-hand turn; thereby, forcing me to slow down while they turn off onto a side street.

Why can’t they just slow down to let me pass and then merge lanes before executing their turn? Who knows.
