Ever? In that case I think you’re gonna be in for a treat lmfao

Aggressive territorial expansionism = bad

Defense against aggressive action = good

Why do you think that was happening before this attack?

You misspelled causing

Cause I’m lazy and cheap and would rather throw on one of the hundreds of N95s I have lying around in my garage

I blacksmith bro. I swing a 5 pound hammer with one hand for hours with a 1400° fire a few feet away from me, while wearing heat insulation gloves in the summer. I wear an N95 because if I don’t I’ll cough out coal dust for the next 2 days, and I’m sure as shit not looking forward to finding out how that feels when I’m 80. Oh and I’m significantly overweight. If I could do it everyone else is just bitching.

It might have a name but I honestly have no idea. Went to a nice butcher shop in new york that had a nice restaurant on the side and they had it on the menu. To be honest I don’t know if I’ve had it anywhere else. I reverse engineered it after the dinner to make at home cause it was just that good, one of my favorite dishes to make if I’m having company over cause it’s literally impossible to dislike. The date/bacon/brussel sprouts combo has that perfect mix of savory/sweet/smokeyness.

Antisemitism was prevalent long before the Catholic Church, and was prevalent outside of the church. Unfortunately it’s one of those things that is just shitty behavior, and not exclusively a shitty church thing

That’s a bit of a stretch don’t you think. I don’t like the church either but saying they’re responsible for the Holocaust is quite a leap lmfao

It is amazing, one of my favorite dishes

It’s actually super good, like meat flavored butter

While roasting them add some diced dates, bacon, onions and maybe peppers and you have the best dish ever made

They SAY of the ACROPOLIS where the PARTHENON IS…

Lmao. “Unless you’re in the majority of PC gamers then it’s not a problem” Linux users I swear

Incorrect. In the past I had been a dues paying member of socialist/leftist organizations, I went to school for politics and philosophy, I’ve spent years of my life having conversations with people like you and reading arguments and following these topics. I’m not done because I’m ignorant or unwilling to face a truth, I’m done because I think you’re wrong, and that you’re unable to see reason. I’ve had this conversation dozens of times. No rational person would look at how an atrocity like the Pol Pot regime conducted itself and say “Yeah that wasn’t fun but look at America! That’s where the real evil is!” It’s insane. For that reason I hope you have a nice evening, I will not be continuing this conversation.

I’ll have to give them a shot. I found jerboa first and really like it so far, but that might be the thing that makes me flip

Sure, you’re right, but again, you are downplaying atrocities by other nations far greater right now. Would I like the US to conduct itself better? Of course. Do I advocate and vote in a way that supports that? Of course. Do I think the US is the worst compared to other countries? Not even close

While I wholeheartedly agree with you that there are serious human rights problems in the way the EU and US has conducted itself overseas in the past, you are grossly underestimating just how fucked up other countries behave themselves when operating past their own borders

If I had to guess it’s a mix of people taking “I’m too lazy” at face value, people grossly underestimating how much work it takes to run and moderate your own instance, and people simply downvoting me for my original comment disliking the amount of tankies on lemmy

Western powers supplying Ukraine don’t really want to see Ukraine deep striking Russian territory for fear of Russia claiming the West is invading russia, so many of the aid being given to Ukraine has been shorter range equipment. Additionally, Ukraine has been very wary of pushing into Russian territory for the same reason, and therefore can’t really put pressure on Russian forces to move troops away from Ukrainian occupied territory. This leaves Ukraine with, for the most part, only the strategic ability to play pickup on what Russia has already captured, which is easier for Russia to plan for
