I'm struggling with everything on this article. On the one hand anytime a hostage has been freed, that's good news. On the other, at what cost. 40 000 dead. That's the easy stat. Amputations are also incredibly high. Most of them kids and performed without anesthetic. This is the first time the IDF has rescued hostages. So I'm sitting here with my initial feeling of 'oh, that's good news' ,and then I think about the wider picture and context, and it doesn't seem so good anymore.

There's a movement inside of Healthcare to get the average Dr's office humming like a dentist. Which, if you're concerned with patient care at all, is impossible. You'll see it with posters saying only one issue per visit, which also greatly imperils the patient as sometimes a diagnosis will change based off one symptom. You've got a good attitude about this. Please share it

I guess if you deny a country entry into the Olympics based on genocide and apartheid it's antisemitic

In it's 'war against Hamas' Israel has now bombed 3 countries that has no Hamas

So magneto has actually fought for mutant rights from the beginning. And every time he gets ahead the xmen win and mutant rights don't really move forward. The xmen literally fight for the status quo. The status quo is bad for mutants, but they want to keep it for some reason. An analogy I've heard a lot is that professor x is the mlk to Magneto's Malcolm x. The difference is that mlk didn't bank roll a CIA black ops style team to constantly beat up Malcolm x whenever he started getting a leg up.

People are fed up. They're more open to extreme actions. That's why people are more sympathetic to Magneto

I wish they'd wake up and stop pushing this guy. They need to be pushing a Bernie style left of center. Otherwise it's going to swing so far left there's going to be carpenters working to build mideval structures outside their homes.

Unfortunately, it's not just an Israeli thing. There's lots of Zionists in NA who say things like 'the Palestinians don't even know how to farm'...

IF Trump is the threat to democracy that the dems say, the shooting was a reasonable response. I hate this 'violence is never the answer ' nonsense. I've been taught my entire life that sometimes violence is justified. For example: ww2, American revolutionary war, civil war, wars for independence (thanks Britain), Haitian uprising....

Essentially ensuring any RFK voter is taken from biden and not Trump

Is this when I'm locked in and hours disappear or when I'm trying to do something and stare off into the distance for 5-10 minutes?

Last year around this time Russia was advancing every day by the 10s of meters. Now some advances are 1-2 km.

The Ukrainians announcing this means things are a lot more dire than what we've been led to believe.

How horrible for this woman. Has a global movement focused on her being a 'man' despite being a woman

I keep seeing people discount Chinese achievement because they 'steal' the tech. I don't think my country could pull this off even after stealing all the tech. It's quite an achievement. I hope this'll show people what's coming. China isn't rising anymore. They're rolling out of bed. The next century belongs to them

This doesn't feel like an actual serious question. Try looking up wild cows and jungle fowl. Yes the domestic cow and chicken would probably go extinct if no one was continuing to domesticate them. That's kinda how evolution works

Slight addendum: liberals fight against any real progress until it's inevitable and then take credit

Reminder that this incredibly evil guy referred to trump as 'uniquely evil'

Most Venezuelan refugees cite crime, access to food and healthcare as reasons for leaving. Guess what US sanctions were causing. If you guessed lack of food and supplies for healthcare which caused an increase in crime, you'd be correct.

If socialism doesn't work, why do they spend so many resources making sure it fails?

Could you imagine the trauma from your teddy that speaks to you like a person and at some point your parents throw it out because it's just a teddy and the kid needs to get over their 'imaginary friend'.

Adults are having trouble with this. It's horrifying that they're forcing it on children

I hate that idea. Respect every person, not necessarily their beliefs
