As an outsider, I find American obsession over Jan 6th to be absolutely bizarre. At worst it was a riot. How exactly is a riot at the capital going to cause a coup? I'm guessing you too probably have overblown Jan 6th concerns but peoples response to your comment only confirms my thoughts. People are so entrenched in maintaining the "most dangerous thing since the civil war" that they are willing to consume their own over the smallest disagreements.

Also, these people claiming Trump would be worse in Gaza, but it's not clear the US would be worse in Gaza if Trump won, the US has put up zero road blocks currently and with Trump in the Whitehouse the democrats would actually push back against the genocide because Trump is now president. Plus more negative press from the corporate media, again, because Trump is in charge. Not saying it's the most likely case, but it can be argued.

If Democrats lost because people on the left refused to vote for them, they would be forced to change. Problem is everyone claims each election is an existential crisis (doubtful) so you're never allowed to withhold a vote or vote third party.

What do you mean by direct-to-content-producer? I can't find it on Google. Are you suggesting the viewers pay the content creator and the content creator pays YouTube for hosting?

Subscription is a reasonable funding method. It's also reasonably priced. I think the bigger problem is companies that refuse to offer subscriptions, because Facebook knows no one is dumb enough to pay $15-20 a month, but that is what they make off the ads so offering the service for anything less would cause them to lose money. Merely offering the subscription shows users how much Facebook really makes off of them.

YouTube is also very generous with how much they spit revenue with creators. I don't like that they exist as a monopoly, but at least they aren't parasites like the other half of the web.

I'm more curious as to what bologna you eat that doesn't taste like hotdog.

The people that can actually make him look like an idiot refuse to interview or debate him (don't want to "platform" him, among other concerns), so he looks like a genius to people that don't know better.

People also seem to be concerned that he can bullshit his way through a debate by overwhelming people with fake facts. This is completely false, I've seen clips where he gets light pushback from relatively neutral speakers and he immediately folds or says something stupid.

People need to stop trying to sweep him under the rug, it only makes him look more authoritative and convincing to dumb people.

I don't like centralized religions either, and I think I agree with your points. But I'm just saying the line "The X of peace" is either so generic that it is a bland description of any ideology. All ideology hides it's violence behind self defense, and are therefore "peaceful". Or it implies that they are particularly peaceful, so it's a description of non-violent. But few ideologies would identify as non violent, and so they would not use that term to describe themselves.

I've never actually heard anyone use that line except people in alt-right circles, and I am around a lot of Muslims. It is not a term Muslims use to describe their religion, not that they would describe it differently, just that it is a strange description. It would be like calling Canada "the country of peace", which I guess is technically true because most countries want to avoid war and promote peace? But does not mean their military is non-violent.

The line is clearly used for the intent of creating a false contrast to make some made up point about hypocrisy.

Also as the other commenter pointed out, you are making a critique about the middle East, everyone agrees the middle East is dysfunctional.

The main post would be shared but then in the comment section you can swipe left or right to scroll through the different instances (comment section). Most comment sections don't have such unique requirements anyways, usually on Reddit I just assume "don't be an asshole" and on the few occasions where that is not sufficient, I get deleted and the mod notifies me of the error, then I learn. Generally people won't familiarize themselves with the community rules before posting.

It was the Bush administration that used their cultural differences as a justification for their hatred of the west. Of course, Bush could have just mentioned what Al Qaeda actually said, which was that they were a reaction to the US military, money, and support meddling in the Middle East. But then that might draw negative attention from legitimate concerns the Middle East has, which means the terrorists win according to their tortured logic, so instead "they hate us for our freedom".

It's more of a cliche, I don't think anyone actually does it, but it shows up in those cropped images of tweets people post on reddit. Downvotes should show right next to the upvotes (at least, on desktop). Is a nice feature to show both, so if it's like, negative 1, you can see, Oh it's actually negative 10 and positive 9, that is like 50% dislike ratio. Feels a lot better knowing its a split crowd.

edit: A word

I just saw your response to my comment, didn't load earlier. Yes is fundamentally the same chemical reaction. Acid/base reaction that results in a salt. Makes a huge difference in the experience in my opinion, I find the salt form to be much closer to real cigs. But as you can see from the other commenter, people have different preferences.

DELETE THIS POST 😂 Hey this isn't twitter, but you can try 👏 adding 👏 claps 👏 between 👏 words 👏 if you think it will help.

Is a valid point to say they haven't done anything honorable. Maybe my post is the equivalent of saying a murderer is honorable for telling the cops where he put the bodies? I like to give credit where credit is due, but I can see your point. Anyways, I feel bad that you have been downvoted to zero, I'll give you an upvote.
