Fundamentalist christians are typically zionist because the existence of the state of Israel is necessary for the second coming of christ. It’s entirely self serving.
But that doesn’t automatically mean they’re pro-Jew 100% of the time. They are still often antisemitic in other contexts.

am i crazy or don’t most articles already have perfectly good summaries? i dont even buy the premise here.
- Comment on Is Wikipedia's Volunteer Model Facing a Generational Crisis? 5 days ago:
This is crazy. Articles already start with perfectly good summaries. look at your example:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II
the very first paragraph is this:
World War II[b] or the Second World War (1 September 1939 – 2 September 1945) was a global conflict between two coalitions: the Alliesand the Axis powers. Nearly all of the world’s countries participated, with many nations mobilising their resources in pursuit of total war. Tanks and aircraft played major roles, enabling the strategic bombing of cities and delivery of the first and only nuclear weapons ever used in war. World War II is the deadliest conflict in history, causing the death of over 60 million people. Millions died in genocides, including the Holocaust, and by massacres, starvation, and disease. After the Allied victory, Germany, Austria, Japan, and Korea were occupied, and German and Japanese leaders were put on trial for war crimes.
The minutia is there if you want, but it’s not necessary if all you need is the summary.

- Comment on Ed Zitron on big tech, backlash, boom and bust: ‘AI has taught us that people are excited to replace human beings’ 2 weeks ago:
my point is what we “should be” excited about is being released from monotonous work in exchange for universal basic income, so we wouldn’t feel the need to be reduced to servants. obviously that isn’t going to happen.
- Comment on Ed Zitron on big tech, backlash, boom and bust: ‘AI has taught us that people are excited to replace human beings’ 3 weeks ago:
the sad thing is we should be excited to replace human beings doing monotonous work but we all know how that will go with capitalists running things.

- Comment on Musk says Tesla is moving Full Self-Driving to a monthly subscription 3 weeks ago:
the problem is it’s non-transferrable, so if you want to sell the car (or totaled it) before ~6 years you would lose money compared to paying $100/month.

I think that the Internet has definitely democratized information in many ways.
unfortunately the internet democratized the creation of information, which is the problem. Now everyone and their angry uncle can say whatever they want and post it everywhere. People are not equipped to deal with that, especially with for-profit social media algorithms involved too.
