Alternatively that they want to improve things for anyone below the top 10% (being generous here).

He was respectably cruel to migrants and supportive of genocide. Gotta keep up the decorum.
Do libs still do the ‘fringe figure’ thing every time we get genocidal statements from Israeli ministers?
Also sounds like a great choice for equality minister.
I keep seeing people in the replies to these citing moving away from the gold standard as the reason. Which further strengthens my belief that Libertarians are the only people who bought twitter blue-checks en masse.
Nostalgic to see some early 2000s crankery though.
ToEE wasn't that great, but VtM:B and Arcanum are easily among the most memorable games I've played.
People give a lot of shit to the euphoric atheists, but when you have a presidet starting wars claiming them as crusades and referencing Gog and Magog they kind of have a point.
Can relate to this, estranged dad died a while ago now. But he was never really a big part of my life as I saw him one weekend per month as my parents split while I was a baby. Got roped into one of the three shifts of being at the hospital with him (cancer, took a couple of months) as he didn’t have anyone else, hadn’t spoken to him for several years before that.
Being told that he at least didn’t fuck up with me and my older brother (have a far younger half brother who has been involved in serious crime since his early teens) when he did fuck all to raise us was incredibly infuriating. I did more to raise my younger brother than he ever did despite only seeing him one weekend per month. Taking an active interest in what your kids like instead of treating them like a nuisance you have to pay for does wonders in getting to know them.
Having to offer emotional support to that overgrown baby who had never offered me the courtesy of the same just made me feel more resentful. There is something surreal about holding the emaciated husk of your father sobbing on your shoulder and feel nothing. Was more relieved than anything when he died. Him dying surrounded not by people who love him, but people who were there out of a sense of obligation was a reminder to not end up like him.
I think this is one of the things that has made it so that the younger generations of Israelis are even more fash, they have started to believe that they are invincible rather than mostly being propped up by the US. They genuinely believe all the chosen warrior people hogwash.
Older generations will have remembered pogroms and the holocaust, if not personally at least from a near family member.
Think that a child that has been stuck in a car with their dead relatives crying for help for hours, and then got blown up along with the paramedics who had permission to help is pretty obviously just evil. There have been Zionist talking heads saying that Hamas uses ambulances, but in that case why not just arrest them when they’re asking for permission or blow up the ambulance before it arrives?
It is just cruelty for the sake of cruelty. That is the reason that this specific incident is used. Nothing for the genocide cheerleaders to hide behind.
Making nuclear weapons is more of a political than technological issue.
People did blame it on him for retiring last time around IIRC.
No, they buy it from Sweden. It is the low cost alternative to the reusable ones. Also easier to use due to the lower weight.
China and the Soviet Union also use/used disposable anti tank weapons, before everyone gets on their high horses about capitalist inefficiency.
