Every little detail. Including access to the raw data that was leaked (that pertains to the individual). The steps taken to correct the action if possible. The source of the attack, including raw access logs if possible.
Basically, let me decide how fucked I am, how it happened, and who now has my data.
I didn’t mean they would publish the information to the internet in an insecure way. But I should, if i CHOOSE, get a copy of the leaked data. You don’t have to ask for it.
It’s not just racism. The bigger picture is hate. It feels better to hate something than to love it. Race, politics, gender, class. We all want big groups of polarized people to hate.

A “real wage” refers to the purchasing power of an individual’s income, adjusted for inflation. Unlike nominal wages, which represent the amount of money earned without considering changes in the price level, real wages account for the cost of living and inflation. This adjustment provides a clearer picture of an individual’s true economic well-being, indicating how much goods and services their income can actually buy.
The US is not the only country who sells weapons to Israel. And, Israel manufactures weapons too. Having fewer super-cool missiles isn’t going to stop them from using the huge stockpile they already have.
What a ridiculous American concept that everything revolves around you.
Biden cannot unilaterally stop providing aid to Israel without Congress. The allocation of foreign aid, including military assistance to Israel, is governed by laws and appropriations passed by Congress.
Please don’t misinterpret my lack of finger pointing to be support for Israel. Biden certainly could take a more outspoken position.
I just can’t help but laugh. It’s like he’s looking in the mirror to psych himself out. We are on the path to idiocracy. US power came from respect… but that’s slipping away from us.

The United States is the largest weapon supplier in the world. Naturally, that would be the case.
Biden cannot stop the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on military aid to Israel without Congressional involvement. The MOU is an executive agreement that outlines the terms of military aid, but the actual allocation of funds requires Congressional approval through the budget and appropriations process. While the President can influence and propose changes, ultimately, Congress controls the money and must approve any significant alterations to the agreed-upon aid.
That said, he supports Israel much more than I would personally prefer him to.
I’m not going to defend Biden’s choices, because I don’t agree with them. I also don’t agree with a lot of US foreign policy.
Biden does not have the unilateral ability to dispatch troops against Israel. The President, as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, can order military actions, but significant military engagements, especially those against allied nations, would require Congressional approval.
Either way, Biden is not the reason the genocide started, and he’s not the reason it hasn’t stopped.
The whole world is letting it happen. And why? My money is on anti-Islam.
I’m not sure if sending troops into Israel is really the best move politically, as Palestine is not an ally. Nor are they even a member of the UN (it’s a non-member observer state, as I’m sure you know, but others may not). Many of the surrounding countries could consider this a threat. And what do you propose the United States does? Actively attacking Israel would have dire consequences internationally.
I disagree that the US president is the most powerful person in the world. I don’t think he is a “smol bean” either. I do think Americans often feel they have more influence than they really do.
