you don’t care about anyone other than yourself.

I’m a leftist and I don’t vote for capitalists or war criminals.

Both abstaining from vot8ng and voting third party are mathematically equivalent to voting for a capitalist

no, they’re not. calling your storytelling “math” doesn’t change its veracity.

i’ve seen explications before, but i’m open to the possibility that you have a novel theory that is testable, falsifiable, and valid.

terrorism is a crime. you use police to deal with crimes. investigate, get a warrant, and bring them to a judge.

You see, people don’t have to answer you to still be correct.

no, but a claim made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, and any claim made in such a way should be doubted until it is evidenced.

Israeli troops shoot and kill a Palestinian shepherd reading the Quran on his land (www.haaretz.com)

Three soldiers pounce on a shepherd sitting outside his sheep pen. They knock him over and then one of them shoots him to death at point-blank range. Fakher Jaber, a father of four, was suspected of involvement in an incident that probably never happened...

Hamas could end hostilities today by returning all hostages and surrendering its leaders to an international court.

there is no reason to believe that. the wall would still be there. palestinians would still be subject to arrest and imprisonment without trial. they would still suffer under a blockade.

the hostilities have never ended since 1947.

(d) Classified information may not be removed from official premises without proper authorization.

seems to me that the president probably has the power to properly authorize himself to remove classified information, being the chief executive and the commander in chief. is there any reason to suppose he doesn’t?

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

A) he said he doesn’t

he’s not a constitutional lawyer

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

B) he’s not the declassification authority on all classified information

can you cite that?

i have to say that this does not seem cut-and-dry. i’m not interested in defending any politician, and trump less than most, but i also think that laws are bad and would err on the side of ignoring or abolishing the law in about every case. given this proclivity, my lack of expertise, and the lack of clarity, i’m of the opinion that this whole endeavor is a big waste of time and energy.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

Why is this even a discussion? This has all been thoroughly parsed.

i don’t hang on every bit of news about trump.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

OK so normally when you are accused of a crime, you hire a lawyer who advises you not to talk about the charges. Why? Because then you say dumb shit like “well it was manslaughter because he robbed me” when your defense was focused on casting doubt it was you who pulled the trigger.

this felt a little condescending, but i suppose some people might need to understand this.

No, white is a race.

in so far as all race is a social construct, and whiteness is one of those constructs, this is true.

A person can strap on a pair of fake wings and wear a tutu, running around screaming that he, or she, is a fairy princess, but it does not indeed make that person a fairy princess.

of course not. that is, unless as a society we construct an identity “fairy princess” that is defined as strapped on fake wings, a tutu, and proclaiming oneself to be one.

i just looked into it. ±230,000 years ago the first anatomical homosapiens emerged in ethiopia, and subsequently migrated in waves called the “northern” migration and the “southern” migration. no earlier evidence of homosapiens exists than this.

The Neanderthal and modern human lineages diverged about 550,000 years ago

… where? where did the neanderthal dna originate?

federatingIsTooHard,

So far, we have no evidence of Neanderthal mtDNA lineages in modern humans

oof.

right wing corporatocracy is fascism.

Mussolini would disagree, as well as any of the anarchist or communists he stabbed in the back.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

Mussolini made no such distinction. mechanized military states meet all the hallmarks of fascism: primacy of the state, and alignment of institutions with the interest of the state.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

the state still has primacy, and the corporations are both chartered by the state and are subject to capricious prosecution for a myriad of laws if they threaten the power of the state.

no, I dont. a fascist is a fascist.

I know what fascism is. america is fascist. the Democrats and Republicans maintain the fascist state.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

absolutely. it’s clear the states interests supercede all other interests and that they have aligned all institutions with the interest of the state.

I’m using Mussolini’s

federatingIsTooHard,

you’ll forgive me if this reads as though you are not only acting in bad faith, but know you are, and plan to continue.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

you admitted that you were using fallacious rhetoric already (thouh your admission is not necessary: it was prima facie). but you also (correctly) pointed out a strawman, which is also fallacious rhetoric.

@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

calling for an end of the war is not pro-russian. you are providing evidence against your own position and then lying about what the evidence says.

i’m an anarchist, and i don’t believe states should exist at all. there are people living in the region called ukraine. i want them to live without any government, russian or ukranian.
