Neat, kinda reminded me of the book Service Model.
- Comment on It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have caused unlawful government. 3 days ago:
All those military rifles are legal to own in most nations with gun ownership. It is a very relevant example. Or are you advocating now that this only counts if the firearms are side by side shotguns and hunting rifles?
You are very much moving goalposts here and trying to put words and arguments I did not make in my mouth. Its not complicated, your point was no firearms where used to resist a tyrannical government in modern times, a point so completely incorrect as to be laughable.

Personal firearms have basically never been used to resist government tyranny in the US or entire rest of the developed world in modern times.
Please show us where success was required in the request?

IRA does not count? Really? The dropping of small arms for resistance fighters? Come on, you are getting as selective as you are wrong.

Well in the states yes, since it is seen as some sort of right and not a privilege that requires basic safety training. The rest of the planet seems to be more sensible.

As clearly can be seen by the distinct lack of ICE shootouts.

And dems demonizing gun ownership. Seems it worked out great for the right (er) wing.

What a hot take, as if firearm owners are all the same, as if there are not left leaning gun owners.
- Comment on 7-year-old Nastia came to Israel for cancer treatment. She and her family were killed by an Iranian missile 5 days ago:
Ok, so not at all boring. I have no idea why you think this fits here. It feels, dirty.
I get this is to get sympathy for an attack but in this case (unlike Ukraine) israel is not some victim of another nations aggression. I don’t think the fact that this family came to israel in Dec 2022 (just before the full russian invasion) helps the idea that these casualties are somehow worse. This is propaganda from a clearly pro israel news site, and I feel wrong that they are using the bodies of this family as such.
- Comment on Trump’s EPA to “reconsider” ban on cancer-causing asbestos 5 days ago:
Stupid knock off cancer dust.
- Comment on Trump’s EPA to “reconsider” ban on cancer-causing asbestos 6 days ago:
I think my favourite part is that it was banned in the us in 1989 but then unbanned in 1991 after a fight in the court of appeals.
Oh and there are still some asbestos uses allowed (cement sheets, industrial diaphragms, etc.) but the us is not unique in this.

- Comment on YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed 1 week ago:
Looks like it. So cherry picking from both ends on this one.
- Comment on YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed 1 week ago:
Yeah that seems to check out, the whole study seems to have been an exercise of trying to prove their believed concept instead of testing it.
- Comment on YouTube might slow down your videos if you block ads 1 week ago:
Oh no! You are going to make your platform work like ass? And you expect us to do mental gymnastics in such a way that instead of blaming you (you know the one that has control over the platform) we blame uBlock? The same uBlock that has made using your platform bearable for many years, to the point that I will sit in silence with the screen off instead of watch with ads?
I think even if you make us wait a min before playing the video most would take that over an ad.

the Arab spring also springs to mind.

3.5% of the people work all the time if you cherry pick your data.
- Comment on YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed 1 week ago:
Also to note, that potential violence is still violence. “peaceful” protests with over 3.5% of the total people generally do as well on the implied potential violence. Movements that will never go hot have no power.

YSK, This is blatant propaganda

Well yeah, when ai started to give people info so wrong it cost the companies money this was going to happen.

Also sunk cost and all that. After all if they admit they are wrong on this what else could they be wrong about? Nope better to just keep “winning”
