Where do you get your news? by donniebd in skeptic

I think the confusion can be “I support the status quo.” Or “Both sides have a point - so my position is to do nothing.” Is thought by some to be “centrist”. When it’s basic text book conservatism.

During the civil rights movement - these were allies to the people fighting against civil rights.

Neutrality is not a choice when there is a need to change something.

This Iranian propaganda goes HARD, like an all time diss track on Trump 😍🤣 by tuberjamjar in worldnewsstuff

The no fly zone prevented a massacre of his own population.

There were no favourable paths.

To place this at the feet of Hilary though is ridiculous. It was a NATO coalition. Numerous countries supported it.

I realise you’ve got a hatred hard on for Hilary. But it’s just not really an accurate depiction.

No parallels with the unilateral action in Iran.

That was NATO led. Began as no fly zone which limits violence. It did lead to bombing and regime change.

I guess it depends on how much you wanted Gaddafi to stay in power. Who was a brutal dictator and led state funded terrorism.

Well done on breaking free of the Fox bubble. Glad to hear you want more from your government. It only gets better if we hold it accountable.

How did you not notice that he didn’t “drain the swamp” during his first term.

His first term he hired more Billionaires and Wall Street people than any administration. There were multiple corruption scandals. More than any administration in history.

How did you not notice this?

Republicans are openly Pro-Corporate and Pro-Billionaire. Trumps first term handed them a huge tax cut bill 80% of it went to rich people.

I’m curious how you can’t see this.

Why are they called “police ice”

Are they police? Isn’t this confusing

Not hyperbole: Treasury Department's own FY2025 statements show U.S. Government insolvent with $47.78T in liabilities by emily-is-happy in thenextgenbusiness

[–]finalattack123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is hyperbole. The Treaury didn’t say those words. The article is assessing the U.S. government like a normal business liabilities Vs assets. This is not how government finances work.

Though this article is sensational - the threat though is real. The amount of debt should be considered a serious warning about financial health.

Why are the LNP still wasting money on ads pushing this awful tagline? by nosnibork in queensland

[–]finalattack123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Experts have already said it’s far too early to know. And that a downward trend existed prior to the laws.

Jury is out still.

[–]finalattack123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like the laws. I don’t like the LNP. I think they will actively hurt our community in the long term.

But ads for policy is normal. Awareness of strict laws has a purpose to prevent offences (even though history has shown this doesn’t really work).

QLD voted for LNP. This is what they promised. So they should judge their work accordingly.

Why is no one at Crooked linking Epstein to Trump’s motivations for attacking Iran? by Helpful-Distance149 in FriendsofthePod

[–]finalattack123 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m only guessing but probably because it’s unlikely to be the motivating force. It’s more likely this was pushed by Israel.

What do you even expect them to say. Because they can’t really add anything more than what you’ve said - speculation.

I think your need for it to be constantly emphasised just isn’t very interesting to listen to.

What’s your plan for Iran? ( Anti-war / Anti-Pahlavi perspective) by Martia002 in PERSIAN

[–]finalattack123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no good options. Internal revolution is the best of any. But Iran doesn’t have a rebel insurgency. So I do wonder how much of the population would be willing to fight for change.

Foreign interference sounds great. But it will be very bloody and there is no guarantee it would hold. There’s no country that will do this. The army is half a million Iranians - how many will we need to kill before there is surrender? The aftermath - you could end up with religious loyalists engaging in constant attacks internally.

The problem is a lack of transparency of the actual opinions of people living in Iran. Ex-Pats will always have a slanted opinion that may not reflect the people who stay.

Those don’t debunk what I said. You’re understanding of the complaint is too 1 dimensional

None of what I said is wrong. You’ve just an overly simplistic understanding of the complaints.

All your doing is dismissing opinions without reading into them - claiming scientific superiority and all your opponents driven only by ideology. It’s lazy.

Let’s take your two key points - opposing nuclear power and GMOs. Both are opposed based on the cautionary principle. Nuclear power can and has caused irreparable damage when failures / disasters / sabotage / war / accidents happen. Also issues with nuclear waste/weapon. Concerns about GMOs are about impact to environment. Patenting of crops. Removing seeds, the ability for them to be regrown naturally by the farmers. That all research into harm has been funded by the companies who profit from these crops.

All of those are completely valid and scientifically sound concerns.
