are people that upset by truth?

You'd be amazed how people can react to hard truths they don't want to hear

I partially agree with you, in that if that money could be used to help other countries that would at least be providing value to the world. Unfortunately I don't believe it's being used that way in this case. Money going to Israel is being used to massacre Palestinian civilians en masse (culminating in what is very likely, and I consider, a genocide), and money going to Ukraine is going to prolong a conflict that the USA has been explicitly preventing from reaching any potential diplomatic resolution. Yes, it would be ideal if Russia pulled out of Ukraine and left them alone but Russia won't do that when it holds the best cards and the best chance for that was earlier in the war when Ukraine had lots of military funding that wasn't being diverted to the Gaza Genocide and most of its troops and fighting-age population weren't crippled or dead.

Sounds pretty typical of Amerikkka. By the way, thank you for this post introducing me to Husseini. Found another great article they did that I posted to a few other places and it's making the rounds now, hopefully introducing a few more people to Aaron Bushnell.

Every minute they spend being fucked is a minute they can't kill more Palestinian children, so I'm on board.

Yep. Gonna add this idiot to my block list.

Do it. Then you won't see my posts to vote and the information will flow more freely 🥰

Wikipedia: Breaking Points

Maybe there's an area of subjectivity in this that I'm not so familiar with, but my perception of Breaking Points in general is that it's both news and commentary. All newscasters have opinions and biases, I think they're just up front with theirs rather than attempting to delude themselves and/or the public into believing them absent of any. I'd also contend that critique of said events is an aspect of news, otherwise all news would sound like a NOAA broadcast.

What if you self-check 3 times a week?

[–] gitgud@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Definitely not if you have the opportunity to work somewhere else.

A UN expert today expressed concern that the possible extradition and imminent prosecution in the United States of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange could have serious implications for freedom of expression.

USA: Yes that's the point

Poor guys, someone should give them some beauty and self-care tips so that they can get a wife to leave them.
