.... So what like a shitty laptop from 2009, a broadband connection and a full bottle of vodka as pay?
Oh man group think is really bad on Lemmy. If you are being downvoted you must have deserved it and the downvotea keep coming and upvoted means right and so upvoted. It's all initial inertia.
Echo chambers work really fast here I have found.
LOL yeah I know. They actually are helpful for any developed country but seeing a document of a list of 34,000 dead humans from newborns to "old" that Palestine is trying to prove were real by using the identification numbers and knowing how Israel uses their labor force and tracks them made me feel the parallels to a historical use, a little heavily.
I kinda figured they should just go all the way with it.
And there you go just putting emphasis on that. As if you can forceably simplify the issue to racism.
Whatever. I called you out. Any further growth is on you.
Good use of buzzwords there. Could hear the Trump in your brain. Best words.
Oh man and we wonder why the liberal arguments aren't winning over struggling low class Americans in suburban towns.
Yeah, I understand you don't give a shit, that's my point.
You don't even care to deal with the actual story and meat of an issue before hand waving it away and blaming racism that makes you feel superior while having done nothing not even think about the actual people involved.
It makes you useless as even an empathetic ear which is bare minimum people usually want.
You aren't superior for this stance.
I'm just not ignoring that over the course of 3 years the population increased by 30% from a specific demographic that are not permanent citizens. Being used as a labor force for companies that demanded new cheap labor.
Again you are simplifying this down in the same conversation they are simply because it's easier and more fun than the reality of what's going in Ohio. Its rumors started to take advantage of a legitimate concern that doesn't get simplified down to just people opening an ethnic cuisine restaurant because it's a nice way to reduce down your opponents idiocracy.
It just makes you willingly ignorant and dismissive and with an agenda like them.
I am seeing it. I'm just not ignoring that there is in fact an interesting base for all this in order to focus on the part the racists without policy are using to push their agenda and that the liberals are ignoring cause it's complicated and easier to focus on the racists attempt to use to belittle them without doing anything.
Oh man, every Palestinian had an ID number? Man those could have just been tattooed on every person to make sure Israel could keep track of them better.
No idea why Israel didn't think of that. Seems obvious to use in your fenced in area that everyone has to be carefully released from for either work or because they died.
No it started with a hodunk town being stressed by its changing landscape that is putting stress on its local residents and the Haitians that are moving there creating a powder keg of stressed resources like housing, traffic and jobs, being used as a political tool.
I understand that people are using this to use to point at generalized black people and racism (just look at you) but there is a legitimate story and starting seed for this that starts before the pandering that is happening now.
Problems can exist before you see the smoke and the problem is not the smoke but the potential fire that somehow does seem to be ignored by everyone who'd rather talk around it.
Yeah, I find straight up abandoning your shit family is a not completely bad idea.
You'd be surprised at the jobs out there that simply let you get on a train or a boat and simply leave it all behind if you want to.
Just please then don't jump off the back of my boat. The point is that it might be lonelier than guaranteed family but ocean is a bad way to go.
Uhh no.
I mean it is literally about Haitians though, as the city of Springfield Ohio already had been incentivizing cheap import labor to take over for the American labor that had left and wouldn't work for low wages.
Literally, a guaranteed work status and easy entry because of destabilizing forces in Haiti has meant a huge influx to the point that now more than 1 in 4 residents in Springfield are in fact Haitian.
It doesn't mean that outlandish stories to create fear and tension are a good idea but just casually changing the details to say it's about black people is you also trying to push a narrative on a struggling city with many real issues that are its own.
Yeah... This is half a packet of seeds and they are literally hopping from the fence to tree branches literally a couple feet away.
I swear it said it was a bush type too and this is more forest.
Well the branch holding my bell peppers fell off entirely from the weight.... So guess it's fajita night.
I honestly have so many Serranos and jalapenos but am the only one that loves spice so.... On the plant they stay for another days nachos.
And yes I know that is a leek but my onions aren't ready and it's a kitchen scrap garden. So using what I got.
My in the ground bell peppers are freaking massive.
I rent in an urban area and was given a backyard full of 6 foot tall weeds. Over the winter I managed to somewhat reduce their numbers and have been fighting them down since but also I didn't really have any money for gardening so I just went with direct inground with a bag of miracle grow for fertilizer and some cheap mulch for bedding.
Pretty much a scraps garden. I have green onions and regular onions, garlic cloves that sprouted, bell pepper and jalapenos, a potato plant, 2 basil and 3 Thai basil, a daikon scrap I'm letting flower I hopes of seeds I can plant next year, and all my beans and peas on the fence over there.
I also planted a blueberry bush that I realized I really should have kept in a pot cause I realized how long that thing is gonna grow for.
I also threw potatoes under the bush in the far back that is doing pretty good and a strawberry I won't ever be able to eat the fruit from because the critters get up earlier in the morning than me.
I mean come on! Like, sure ok then, please go on ahead.
Oh I was gonna call out All Summer in a Day cause holy fuck Ray Bradbury has some issues with kids..
I mean he is right too but damn those stories stick with you. And also did that and basically all the ones you pointed out as a "gifted class". Do you think they literally had just 1 syllabus for us weird kids for the whole nation to try and scare us back into line or what? Cause, seems like we all getting traumatized by stories of death and emotional torture at like 11 by the same stories.
