Yeah and downvoting a racist will just alienate them and push them further right, and yet we still downvote.
While occasionally someone might realize that they are in the wrong, the value of condemnation is in signaling to the community that such views are not tolerated.

There’s a conflating the goals of Hamas with the goal of Palestinian people here. Just because the majority of Palestinians support Hamas doesn’t mean they all do.
Crossplane has also had internal providers in development for 3 years. Bottom line is unless the actual cloud provider is devoting developer resources to a provider(like they do for the TF providers), it’s unlikely to happen.

Trump can still win. Part of his path to victory is useful idiots in the left voting PSL while chanting “Genocide Joe” and pretending the trolley problem doesn’t exist and that they’re not strapped to the track their decision is leading towards.
Iran said it launched dozens of drones and ballistic missiles towards Israel on Saturday in a major attack following days of acute tension building up in the region and warnings from the US and elsewhere about a wider conflict erupting....
It’s related, but it’s an excuse for what Iran really wants. Similarly Iran does not really care about the Palestinians beyond their usefulness as a grudging pawn.
A proportional response from Iran would have been more rockets from Hezbollah, Hamas, or the Houthis. Or maybe a very limited drone attack on a specific target.
A response like this on the part of Iran is disproportionate, so there must be another motive. Iran isn’t so stupid as to think Israel won’t bomb the shit out of them, thus Iran must want to be bombed.
The only reason I can think of for Iran to want to be bombed is to quell their internal troubles. It feels like every other week another woman without a hijab is killed, or disappeared, or beat to shit, and every other month another protester is executed by the state. There is unrest in Iran, people are getting tired of the theocratic bullshit. So what better time to need an external threat?
Iran’s long-running narrative against israel, painting them as their great satan, could use a refresh, and what better way than to have israeli bombs fall on iran?
