  There’s also the fact that they are too explosive to conform to flight safety standards.

  Releasing the hostages won’t stop anything. The IDF was headshotting children before October 7th.

  According to this, Hamas rejected proposition by Israel on march 1. Which then triggered Israel.

  Seventeen days later? I don’t think you can call that a “trigger”

  Fact is, Israel has been violating the ceasefire since the beginning according to the reports I’ve been reading.

  Hamas shouldn’t even have the hostages, but stealing a few hundred people is nothing compared to the way Israel bullies Gaza. Now they’ve got the hostages, they’ve lost any moral high ground anyway, so they’re going to use them to the best tactical, strategic and diplomatic advantage they can. It’s the smart thing to do. It’s not the right thing to do, but I think everyone lost all hope of either side doing something right a long time ago.

  Well you’ve used the qualifier “adequate”, which means there’s an undefined set of criteria for bargaining that you deem acceptable. However there was until three days ago a ceasefire in place. A ceasefire by its existence proves that some bargaining has been done.
  There were no provisions in the ceasefire that allowed Israel to attack under the conditions in which they did. Am unconditional and complete release of hostages by 18/03/2025 was not one of the conditions imposed upon Hamas. Israel contravened the ceasefire. Therefore by giving the green light, the arbiter was violently remiss in his duties to uphold it impartially.
  No idea where you get your news, but if you look at multiple sources from the time the ceasefire was signed (mid January), you’ll see the terms of the ceasefire, and you’ll see that Hamas did not break them.

  Absolutely they should give up their only bargaining chip. That will leave them in a stronger position, obviously, as they will be literally decimated -but- they can then complain about how ruthlessly they were destroyed. I’m sure the arbiter will just put everything back as it was before any of this mess even happened.

  Especially since the arbiter is one Donald J. Trump, a Colossus of a man with an immaculate reputation for fairness, and a knack for both resurrecting eradicated families and magically repairing destroyed infrastructure with a flick of his wand. Yes, release the hostages unconditionally, I’m sure it’ll just work out for you if you, I dunno, pray hard enough. (But not like that, though. We don’t recognise that kind of prayer)

  It sounds like I imagine his internal monologue sounds, given the stuff he actually lets through whatever is left of his pr filter.

  You are absolutely right

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Axel Rudakubana: 'Evil' Southport killer jailed for minimum 52 years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d just like to add an argument against the death penalty. The common argument is that we sometimes get it wrong so we can’t have it because you can’t reverse the sentence, and that is a strong enough argument. However, if one day we have a justice system that can be 100.000% certain of guilt (or society at large is persuaded of this, even if it isn’t true…) then I still don’t believe we should have the death penalty, because it’s not possible to be 100% certain that there is no chance of rehabilitation. I’m someone who has had a family member horrifically and senselessly murdered, and I still believe revenge achieves exactly nothing. It just adds bodies to the pile and increases suffering. It won’t bring back your loved ones, or, crucially, reduce your suffering one iota to see the guilty suffer or die.
  The question really is: why the hell would any civilised society, whose citizens believe themselves to have mastered their animalistic nature, want the death penalty?

  Répétition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cognitive Biases⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re absolutely right there. We’re hard wired to think this way and it’s a constant battle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cognitive Biases⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Knowing these helps with self-talk. You trip over a curb and start scolding yourself. Then you can say to yourself “this is just spotlight bias”, and move on with your day, avoiding the impact of negative emotions. Or, you might be more open to a change in restaurant plans because you know of the false consensus effect. There’s subtle but real power in just naming things!
