Based USA and Israel…
To steel man their argument, dont agriculture companies like Monsanto develop resistance and things that get around real problems?
If they cant patent their seed then how would those solutions come into being. Surely life saving pharmaceuticals could be classified the same, or shelter, yet we still allow private ownership of those things.

No, they don't.

I'm just waiting for the world leaders, one after another, to cut all ties with both these entities. Will they dare? Will they form a new alliance? Will the world unite against the true tyrants? Stay tuned.
Not that easy when you have an insane person with a lot of nukes.
They won't unite out of morality, but preservation.
Unfortunately, there may still be a long way to go, assuming the leadership doesn't deny reality up until the nuke launches start.

The Israel's "anti-jew/antisemitic" rhetoric only works with the west, so it could take a very long time for leaders with bigger balls to just say "that's not gonna work anymore". USA is currently on the path to self isolation.
It's already happening, but it's in usually a slow disentangling of payment systems, software, tech, ... Just cut and run would be very damaging. And like many things in politics it's often two steps forward one step back.

If the idiots can't see the trend yet, will they ever?
To the idiots, the trend is that the US and Israel are the only great countries on earth.

Shithole countries
I'd like a list of all UN resolutions that (almost only) the USA & Israel vetoed, pretty please.
Israel doesn't have veto powers as they're not in the security council. They can only vote 'no'.

Oh the two war criminal nations? No shit? The two humanitarian violators? You don't say?
How to locate evil forces: start asking questions about human rights. Noted.
Nestlé, claiming to be the country of Hydra, claimed a cultural and historic right to all the world's fresh water, stating that it was promised to them 3000 years ago.
Hail Hydra or something

I'm starting to think that Israel is where most of the evil in the world comes from.
Israel, Russia and the USA internationally, domestically they have more competition like NK, China, Belarus, some African States and a bit of South America

Living in the US as somebody who pays attention to the world and cares about people and stuff is absolutely surreal sometimes.
It's especially so when you're one of the last people to have had an analog childhood (The Oregon Trail generation represent) so all the adults you knew as a child grew up in the post-ww2 prosperity and genuinely believed all the American exceptionalism stuff.
The only thing it seems we are best at is striking the perfect evil balance where I can't decide if it feels more Black Mirror or more Hunger Games.
Do you mean Gen X, Millennials, or Xennials when you say last to have analog?
I'm sure my anecdote applies to people from all three, and even to some of the boomers that didn't ingest as much lead and have kept their head on straight.
When I mentioned The Oregon Trail generation though, that's usually an Xennial label.
I am shocked. Shocked!
Well not that shocked.
I know at least one of those countries is way overfed.
I'm pretty sure that the privileged are well fed around the world.
Approximately 13.5 percent of U.S. households — more than 47 million Americans, including nearly 14 million children — struggle to put food on the table. Here the measure of hunger is “food insecurity” — an ongoing uncertainty of where the next meal will come from. More than 1 in 5 U.S. children are at risk of hunger (1 in 3 among Black and Latino(a) children). To the surprise of many, most Americans (51.4 percent) will live in poverty at some point before age 65.
Overfed with low nutrition and high subsidised fructose slop

There's nothing mild about the fury this inspires in me.
