russia does not seek a positive outcome for anyone but the man atop his throne of skulls in the kremlin. this war has been brutal and has robbed both countries of much of their future. the difference is russian soldiers fight because they are so manipulated as to think there's nothing else for them. Ukrainian soldiers fight in the hopes that someone will have a future. russia has made it abundantly clear that they intend to wipe Ukraine from the map and eliminate any existence of a distinct Ukrainian identity. territorial control is not the aim of the russian army, but instead to exterminate a light from history.

reasons for Jews who are still connected to who theis people are to be against what's happening in the levant:

  1. it is obviously wrong
  2. we have as a group of people direct knowlege of how wrong it is
  3. our bodies are temples, meaning a few things. a) ever since the destruction of the second temple the necessity of a specific Jewish place for us to be safe has no longer made sense as we tried that and it didn't work b) we have been keeping our connection to who we are just fine without an israel so we should focus instead on community c) as severed as we've become from that space, we no longer are indigenous there and our skills as story tellers are better used not to maintain that space but instead to preserve the stories of other marginalized people d) if we think of our bodies as temples it creates a beautiful challenge for ourselves: we must provide the services of a temple where we are. we must feed the hungry, minister to the sick, listen to the weary, and protect the marginalized, just as we were once strangers in the spaces we once existed in, so too are others, and we know from our stories and history that what really helps a broken soul is some soup and some friendship
  4. we have kept the history of every attempted genocide against us and we have the knowledge that any and all genocides include a point where the targeted demographic is no longer obviously existing to whoever Pharaoh is this time but still it continues. in other words today it's the brown Muslim, tomorrow it's the Jew who isn't obviously non-Palestinian enough. the day after that it's the Jew who says "the killing can stop, we got everyone" and the day after that it's simply the Jews not at the core of power with no pretense that any of this was ever about safety or security. we should know better than anyone at this point that killing only begets more killing, and that genocide is a self fulfilling frenzy.

almost as if zionism and israel do not represent all, or even most, Jews

A n*gger is a race neutral term nowadays

no. no it's not. people know its origins and who it's referring to. to deny this is a form of sealioning. fuck off with that

It essentially means someone that takes far more than they will ever contribute, and in that respect, he's absolutely correct

attaching this meaning to it is a form of dog whistle to get people to associate these traits with Black people. you are doing the propaganda work of white supremacy right now.

damn straight. fuck our fascist class. don't capitulate

there's something beautiful that every individual has their own image for what Baberaham Lincoln looks like. like you read that, and it evokes for you in your head your very own Baberaham Lincoln

 

I just want to have a discussion about this. All of the remakes and reboots hollywood has done throughout its history have always been a way of just making money by putting all the money on "sure" bets, things that producers already know people like because they were successful before, but there's something exceptionally soulless about the Disney reboots.

There seems to be no true desire to introduce a new generation to stories they weren't familiar with, but instead a desire to just rewrite disneys entire catalog to be presented in a new aesthetic. It's a homogenization of film to a single set of techniques and looks. Capitalism is directly strangling creativity and it's being successful enough that it's seemingly never going to stop. I mean. They're rebooting movies that aren't even 20 years old yet at this point. There are people in college seeing promos for reboots of movies their parents took them to as kids.

It's creating this environment where we're all stuck in this moment that already passed. The media we consume now was written in response to events that happened already, have passed us by, and can no longer be addressed. Any attempts to make new media that meet our current moment are stifled by studios who just... Don't care.

 

Well y'all finally went and did it. You got me to comment in your community, so now I gotta post something before I leave. I hope you're happy. I mean honestly. Is this what you wanted? Do you like this? Do you like my shitty shit post?

Don't ever let it be said I don't follow the rules

 

Posting from my alt account because file uploads seem to still not be working on beehaw

For the screen readers: This is a very small preying mantis that was on my door this morning. It is about the length of my first finger's first bone (the finger tip).

 

Lionir elected to prevent any potential data leaks by shutting down Beehaw until the issues lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone are identified and resolved

 

Not much to add. Saw it in another technology forum and thought it also belonged here for the solarpunks
