I just had a scary conversation with someone I love. He used to hate trunp and all that means but has slowly been going down a rabbit hole. I've tried to talk sense to him but I can't seem to speak with authority (even on subjects I'm confident in) or without emotion. (Man, my Mom was so good at that. She became more articulate the angrier she became.)

MarvinTheMartian,

@maddad @Mary625 I need to learn this lesson.

Shani Louk attended a peace festival in Israel

That was her transgression

And because of this, Hamas terrorists r**ed her, beat her, murdered her, and desecrated her by parading her body around to be displayed to chats of "allahhu akbar"

"god is greatest"

MarvinTheMartian,

@enoch @flexghost horrid violence on both sides should be denounced by all. There is never a good excuse to commit atrocities

MarvinTheMartian,

@flexghost @enoch I always both side it. I am anti violence and anti hate. In all forms by all people. I do not apologize for believing in everyone’s right to exist. I oppose terrorism in all its forms. My heart reaches out to all the people that are involved in conflicts and are suffering.

MarvinTheMartian,

@flexghost @enoch sorry you feel that way. I am not apologetic of my position

MarvinTheMartian,

@flexghost @enoch so the issue is I did not see what he was responding too. The way the timeline e works here you don’t always see the posts that are being responded too. I saw his post as an individual post and did not have the context. Not an apology but a fact. I do however apology if I have offended you. I respect your opinions and in no way intended to offend. I thought I was posting on the greater conflict in general.

MarvinTheMartian,

@flexghost @enoch without hesitation what happened to the lady was horrid and appalling. There is no excuse for ever doing that and my heart goes out to her family and those affected by her traumatic loss. Lights in this world should not be extinguished so callously

Can we stop acting like Fascism and Civil Rights Violations are "Politics"?

MarvinTheMartian,

MarvinTheMartian,

@Nickiquote @RickiTarr it is sad that this even has to be said

Mastodon is not immune to misinformation. There's just a lot less of it here. This is just a reminder to fact-check before you boost, especially if you're light on the details of a particular international crisis. We're responsible Mastos, though, and most of us do this already 😉

MarvinTheMartian,

@dancinyogi @lisamelton history is complicated. The history of the Israel/ Palestinian situation is well documented and available to all. I encourage people to read the history and try your understand the situation we find ourselves in today. I have spent a lot of time reading historical documents on the topic because it fascinates and appalls me.

My thoughts on modern day, Israel.

It is hard to have peace when one side does not believe you have the right to exist.

The Jewish People have unfortunately experienced racism and segregation for many generations. And before you say, they should have made their home elsewhere, I'd have you answer, where?

That is a question most do not want to seriously try answering, because often the people upset about Israel's existence, don't care about its people to begin with.

MarvinTheMartian,

@Linux_Is_Best It is a mess, mostly created by England and the US

MarvinTheMartian,

@Linux_Is_Best the truth is the Israel’s did not make there home there, England and the US made Israel in a place that was already Palestine.

MarvinTheMartian,

@Linux_Is_Best the history of the region is complicated and a mess. Ultimatley religion is always used as an excuse for evil.

MarvinTheMartian,

@Linux_Is_Best no it is very much correct. Read the history.

    @Hey_Beth I find it interesting to read the Israel times and see how they put a political skew on the story. A lot of propaganda going on here

    Mohammad Deif, chief of Hamas Military Wing Al Qassam Brigades, announced that 5,000 rockets and missiles launched towards the Israeli occupation settlements.

    Deif said that the operation was launched to “deter the Israeli violations against Al Aqsa Mosque and to force Israel to respect international law.”

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @Free_Press this area is a mess. The historical cluster fuck that the US (mostly with the help of a few other countries) created in this region has and will always guarantee war. Americans have. Always seen themselves as morally superior and the saviors of the world, and then fobar the situation. The consequences last for generations and generations and the blood is on American hands. This is what is disgusting.

    My husband sent me a photo to show he had made our bed this morning (I left early) and I thought about sending him photos of everything I accomplish in a day, but that would break the internet.

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @enoch @Skepticat trying to make the rest of us look bad 🤣

    Frank James used a smoke bomb forcing people to move to the back of a subway train

    Then he started shooting

    He shot 10 people—miraculously they all survived

    James posted videos on YouTube talking about mass shootings
    He had 12 prior arrests for a criminal sex act, theft and disorderly conduct

    But because James had no prior felony convictions—he was able to purchase a gun

    He just received 10 life terms plus 10 years

    But this doesn’t fix the problem:

    it’s the guns.

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @enoch @flexghost are you kidding. Congress is WAY too busy naming post offices to deal with gun violence. 🤦‍♂️

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @enoch @flexghost absolutely not. There are holidays to approve and raises for legislators to deal with. Could take a century to deal with all the really important legislation before they can get to something as trivial as gun violence

    I'm a little sad today. Not just for remembering the passing of Steve Jobs. But after almost a year of being here, I'm finally having to block trolls on Mastodon. Dammit.

    These assholes should realize that I spent a decade working for Steve. So, this girl doesn't get intimidated.

    And I almost pity the poor motherfuckers who try to mansplain Web browsers or video transcoding to me. Almost.

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @lisamelton asshats. See I am finding all kinds of uses for my new favorite word 🤷‍♂️

    MarvinTheMartian,

    @lisamelton so now let me explain web browsers to you in pain staking detail …..🤣🤣
