Which is why Jews across the world have said Israel is genuinely the greatest source of danger to them in terms of antisemitism - because it has linked its atrocities to their identity, regardless of their personal support.

Because Palestine is a multifaith, multicultural country and Israel is a colonial foothold & apartheid that is actively and systemically trying to erase both Palestine and Palestinians.

Resistance is justified, oppression is not.

We have had and continue to have a democracy. It may not be the form of democracy you like but no need to pretend otherwise.

except the alchemists actually strived to move towards more reliable and accurate science

Forgive if I'm misunderstanding, but wouldn't that be chemists striving toward reliable and accurate science? Sovcits being alchemists or petty magi is a pretty great comparison, honestly.

Inefficient. Utilise your time to provide maximum benefit for the biosphere before you return to it. Nature is not a solo juggernaut - it needs us to help to our part.

As they should. These people don't care about us.

Exactly. It's insane we need to remember details like this but here we are.

The amount of coal rolling cope going on here is kind of wild... first time seeing people culture-war mad on Lemmy. Kill your darlings, I guess.

That's the joy of a good coffee culture and a decent minimum wage - most are!

Yeah, God, that's a difficult position to be put in.

Sorry man - you shouldn't have to make choices like that... if you do have to take it, I'd try to ease my concious by redirecting their money. Like, I did that when I had to work for a for-profit contract company staffing Australias social services. KPIs for welfare phone lines staffed by undertrained whoevers. They'd penalise us for taking the time to help vulnerable people. Disgusting company - left the second I could afford to. I put something aside for local mutual aids and environmental groups.

God man - I'm sorry, that just sucks.

Good luck. Hope you can avoid Raytheon.
