I think I have heard more stories about how someone’s grandfather fought in WW2 with a jewish person than ever before in my life during the last 6 months.

I’ve heard abundant touching stories about how humane, vibrant & wholesome someone’s jewish friends are.

All from people, who continue to present the point that they are arguing facts about the conflict.

Unfortunately, that’s not the case. All of these people were arguing A NARRATIVE about the conflict.

Perhaps someone can help with this problem... and help get more aid to Ukraine.

VIDEO: "Short on air defenses and waiting for more international military support, Ukraine is turning to improvised weapons to hold Russian soldiers back on the front line. DW's Nick Connolly met soldiers who are using agricultural drones to make up for missing firepower."

The point of solar panels is not to ensure "solar profitability," but to make for a greener, better world. Its profitability is only justified insofar as it moves us towards that goal. If we want to switch to renewables, then sometimes we're going to have surplus, because of how renewables work. This is well known and discussed ad nauseam. If that makes power markets unstable, then the problem is with markets, not with there being too many solar panels.

@theluddite what’s wrong? This is how market economies should work.

Here is where the energy storage company would come and make their money.

It’s fine. All’s well.

@Edelruth It is almost as if you were writing the recruitment pampflets yourself.

The parasitic relationships of ultra-right political movements across cultural borders are fascinating.

@thetechtutor How well did that go in Northern Ireland?

History seems to point to two answers:

In modern times terrorist organisations are almost never defeated by military actions, but by political solutions that offer the people a better alternative. The people know these are madmen, but the madman is the only one speaking for them so there’s no choice.

In old times brutal empires took hundreds of years to crush repeating rebellions and eradicated whole ethnic groups in the process.

@thetechtutor 1933, british promised 33% of Palestine to the zionist movement. 1948 they were given 56%. By 1967 they controlled 79%.

Yet in 1918, a mere 6% of Palestine was Jewish.

All this in about 100 years. It is not ancient, it is recent. Of course they’re going to want their homes back. Many still carry the keys to homes that were taken by force from them.

You talk of 1200 people dead. You know what that is to Palestinians right now? The number of people dying in Gaza in a week.

gimulnautti,
@gimulnautti@mastodon.green avatar

@thetechtutor And like clockwork, here comes the: ”I have the facts around here” claim of authority, and linking of documents that point out exactly the same numbers and same process.

This and many others like you, have led me to the conclusion that blindness to the facts right in front of you is the real issue.

Go ahead, pick the facts, ignore the Nakba, ignore the surging of far right in Israeli politics.

It’s the increase of Israel that remains the problem, not the existence of it.

@gimulnautti@mastodon.green avatar

@claralistensprechen3rd I keep hearing this number, 1200 connected to brutal slaughter.

Let’s take a look at that number:

32000 Palestinians dead since Oct 7th,
which makes for 5333,3 dead per month,
1333,3 dead Palestinians PER WEEK, and going on…

I wish people would stop pretending nothing has happened since Oct 7th?

And you’re right. In modern times terrorist organisations have been defeated by cutting into their support, not military action that increases it.

@ManyRoads My honest opinion following the rise of the far right in European politics, is that should Russia lose the war in Ukraine and it’s people would finally put an end to the imperialist claims, we would see the bottom fall out from under many of these political organisations

@ManyRoads If it was being used in the war against it, I would say this was fair game as a target.

Journalists need to stop making it seem like Russia is untouchable due to it’s possession of nuclear weapons.

@ManyRoads Populists often bank on getting the far right on their side. For intimidation of voters and breaking up counterprotests this group would be useful for his campaign.

is now at peak -industrial capacity, practically zero unemployment, pay hikes because not enough labour force to man the weapons factories. 35% of government spending go to military. 7.1% of GDP. All of it to go up in smoke in

However, if we look at the numbers, this output only matches current EU military spending. Countries which are on avg spending less than 2% on it currently.

Tell me again how Ukraine supported only by Europe can’t possibly win?

I keep hearing this number: 1200

Let’s call it for what it is: That’s actually the number of Palestinians that die EVERY WEEK during the current conflict.

And that’s not hyperbole, it’s cold, hard, math.

32000 dead =
5333 dead / month =
1333 dead / week

One thing stays constant over the ages: Rich people who think politics is bankrupt and they should run things instead.

The thing with politics is though, at it’s root the word means doing things (for the city) together. And the root of their frustration with politics and doing away with it is that they don’t want to do things together.

@ManyRoads As we say in Finland: Torille! (To the square! 🇫🇮) Every time our country is mentioned! 😂

Happy to say thay unlike US, even a very right-wing government like we have now, does not bow to Russia.

Russia’s direct propaganda on Finland has actually been eerily quiet since their last direct influencers were booed out in 2022 for supporting the Ukraine invasion.

Instead the threats, covert operations & confusing with several different versions of events gone up sharply.

In a groundbreaking study from 2017, Chatard et al found social comparison to be subliminal.

In the study women were shown images of thin women or heavy women at sub-conscious threshold viewing times of less than 20 milliseconds.

Even when they consciously didn’t register seeing them and weren’t able to make the comparison, the study found feeling good or bad about their bodies still consistently affected.

The important question is what the above means for #mentalhealth of #kids, especially young girls on #socialmedia:

It means we can’t educate ourselves away from this.

We can of course alleviate some of the problems that follow, and we should. Social media provides way too many supermodel-shapes to push those buttons teenagers still don’t know how to react to.

And it is important for educators also to try and not ”talk some sense into the kids”, but promote healthy reactions to the inevitable.
