FOSS

Same. I adopted a google account a long time ago, but I've finally hit my limit on what they've been doing with youtube and everything. Free and open source alternatives are the way to go, it may take a while to catch on or may never fully, but who cares. Switching to linux recently was the best thing I've ever done.

Just watch lol.

The problem is the US is getting dragged into that, and, speaking as someone who knows something about the subject, Iran almost certainly has a few nukes smuggled within US borders. The CIA has recovered quite a few soviet era nukes that were smuggled into the US, Vice did a decent job showing how black market nukes are in the US.

I'm going to laugh and laugh when the collective Muslim world grinds Israel to the dust one day. I'll probably even get to see it in my lifetime.

They "elected" Hamas. In an election that was never certified, had more votes total than people living there and there hasn't been an election since.

But even if they legit did vote for Hamas I wouldn't blame them. Killing Israelis after all they've done is just.

It literally says it's good to kill atheists in their holy book, regardless of which abrahamic religion you choose. And while, yes, Christians, Muslims, and Jews can pick and choose what they follow, but in the case of Muslims, clearly you have to see the threat. If you don't recognize the potential, or hear how they demonize atheists, I really can't help you. You can allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security by some of them that pretend to be better, but I won't.

Violent anarchists are Libertarians, whom literally state their mission is to remove all government limitations at all costs.

How Libertarians avoid the anarchist label is beyond me. They're like weird corporate anarchists, compared to the actual anarchy movement.

Progressives are people who value the freedom of religion for all people, the freedom to be who you truly are, even if that's the opposite gender you were born as, and the advancement of human rights on topics concerning body autonomy and well anything humans rights related. We also tend to firmly believe in addressing income inequality, poverty, availability of medical benefits to everyone as a human right, and an end to monopolies and corporate malfeasance.

I think a lot of conservatives try to paint Progressives as anarchists because we riot. But they ignore the literal mission statements of the right wing which is that smaller government is better and that people should run their lives completely freely. THAT is anarchy my friend. And what that gets us is a dying planet full of pollution with infinitely rising cost of living and slavery to corporations, and we're dangerously close to that now. You'd better hope like hell Progressives win this fight, because everything you enjoy, everything that's good in your life, is a result of Progressive policy. Or are you actually going to sit here and argue policies like Reaganomics are a good thing despite almost 60 years of data to the contrary?

After what I went through at the hands of my ultra religious parents, at the hands of the Catholic church I went to, and finally at the hands of the conversion therapy religious camp I was imprisoned in, I can tell you right now I have absolutely zero capacity for any compassion for any believer what so ever.

If I could press a button and kill them all I'd do it in a heartbeat. No believer deserves even the tiniest iota of your sympathy or compassion. I promise you one atheist to another, they feel the same way about you.

Ideally we wouldn't sacrifice our ideals of freedom for money. This is America though and we're all capitalist whores first and foremost though.

You're talking about Gaza or Tel Aviv? I've been to Gaza man, 95% of them didn't have clean water in 2014 and that number didn't change up until today. Gaza itself was a hellhole.

The resorts and stuff you see are on Jewish territory. They've destroyed anything nice Palestinians have.

They chose for religious reasons to slowly invade and genocide a people in an area that was extremely hostile to them.

Historically Jewish people have been given land in Spain and Italy to found their own nation. Both times they sold it and invaded Israel in history.

I have zero sympathy for them, because historically, they've been the invading aggressors to the region because they feel they have some sort of religious right to it, and since I'm anti-theist and believe religion is the root of all evil seeing both sides die in this conflict is kind of desirable to me.

...you mean at the military checkpoints where Palestinians routinely disappear? How about the fact that Israel conducts human medical experiments on prisoners. Or the systematic rape of Palestinian women. How about the systematic attacks on Palestinian infrastructure that leaves 95% of Gaza without access to clean water. And that was before this current mess.

Grow the fuck up and open your eyes. Israelis are straight up evil.
