I read about that. In my opinion is that what should change, if possible. There are good reasons why votes a secret in democracies.

I disagree. There's things we can do to help. If you have some money to spare, you can donate to charities that work in those countries, there are many. You can also vote for political parties that defend international justice and reducing inequality globally. You can also boycott companies that behave unethically in exploiting the natural resources of poorer countries. If we are talking about Somalia, I heard many rich countries' fishin boats go there to fish making it harder for local fishermen to make a living. We have a lot more power than we think. It starts with caring.

I used to think that way. Then I realized that in order for me to enjoy something I need to have someone to share it with.

To be fair, cold air can contribute to making you sick. I got more misled by being told getting a cold had nothing to do with temperature because it is a virus. It is indeed a virus, but you're more likely to get infected if you get cold.

Gaza’s youngest influencer aged 11 among children killed by Israeli strikes
Reply in thread
"Let them kill each other off" is a cold way to talk about a conflict where one side is a nuclear-armed state backed by the West, and the other is a stateless people under occupation. This isn’t a fair fight—it’s a military superpower bombing refugee camps, hospitals, and UN schools while starving 2 million civilians.
You claim Palestinians would "chop heads off" Americans, but the U.S. has armed Israel for decades while it bulldozes homes, steals land, and locks millions in an open-air prison. If Palestinians hate American policy, can you blame them? Meanwhile, Israel gets billions in U.S. weapons while its politicians call for the "flattening of Gaza." Who’s really the ally here?
Yes, Hamas is brutal—but they didn’t appear out of nowhere. Decades of occupation, blockade, and apartheid radicalized people. That doesn’t justify Oct. 7, but ignoring the context is dishonest. Collective punishment—starving kids, bombing families—only creates more extremism.
And spare me the Holocaust guilt-tripping. Using Jewish suffering to justify Palestinian suffering is grotesque. Many Holocaust survivors, like those in Jewish Voice for Peace, opposed Zionism. Israel’s government includes far-right ministers who praise settlers burning Palestinian villages—are they "defending Jews" or fueling genocide?
The West props up Israel while pretending to care about "human rights." If you’ve really been to the region, you’d know: this isn’t about "rooting for Jews or Arabs." It’s about ending occupation, apartheid, and Western hypocrisy.

Let's remove art from the debate then. It's something that presumably took hard work and now that hard work is put into question.

I think money existed well before false-scarcity. It is the wrong enemy. I know close to nothing about economy so I would trust economists like Varoufakis and the like.

Good point. Would it be useful to somewhat anonymize them by giving every user a unique code? So admins would see these codes but not easily know what users they represent.

I would say it comes from the top of the monitor and it was bent into shape somehow like the forehead piece was. Maybe with heat.

There are many things that don't happen because nobody does them. Or should we start walking around in a bullet proof vest in case we're shot?

Wouldn't this be as easy to break as to point a camera at a screen playing whatever you want?
Perhaps not with light field cameras. But then you could probably tamper with the hardware somehow.

But, really, life is much safer without that many guns. I encourage America to try it. I imagine I could get to enjoy using an assault rifle, but it can't be worth all the shootings.
