I dont want to read or see negative news, but it feels i have to be aware of them so things dont hit me blindsided. I’m so tired of this world

Israel is the last country one would think that would do things like this to other people, considering their history. Its like they want to create validation for bad things people have said about them. Though i hope its same situation as in russia, regular people dont want to do those things but are so apathetic and fear their leaders so much they dont dare to rise up. Though in this situation they are likely also so well misled and manipulated they think they are doing the “right thing”. Eitherway, current israeli leadership should just go, like previous german leadership. I really dont want to think majority of their country supports this.
This shit will likely be one of the catalysts for the next world war, at least it feels that way.
no, the conflict would likely turn even worse. Way too many see animals as inferior beings for people to just agree on something like this.
both of those should get split up too
if stomach gets cut, the acid could flow out. Death by being dissolved by your own stomach acid wouldnt be nice one.
it could be kind of disrespectful towards the culture that built them. I dont think we can restore them in such a way it respects the beliefs and culture of those who built them, so best thing to do would be to make sure they dont decay further. Also, restoring them just so tourists can have something to gawk at would be a kin to showing middle finger to those who built and revered them. And i doubt anyone would be interested in doing anything without monetary gain from it.
You might be forced to choose between that or not being able to get a job due to having to compete with other people who perform better due to cybernetic implants
article should have less loaded heading though. by now it should be expected that most read only that. Heading in general should contain the essence of the article so the general idea can be seen at a glance.
Putin likely ordered him to be kept in such conditions that he will die because of that.
anyone who this is supposedly targeted at will just start encrypting their messages on their own so even if message is intercepted it cant be read without difficulty/reasonable time. I could do it even here: U2FsdGVkX1+w2vSFD+69kO38y4VaS7pIJlM9vam//gU= (passkey=test)(aes-256-cbc)
conveying information to large amounts of people this way is difficult, pretty much impossible if recipients are tech-illiterate. But if you REALLY have something you want to hide, you dont have to rely on communication services doing it for you. Only people who will suffer from this are the real targets: all of us.
If services start making rules that you cant do this one could probably even obfuscate that message has been encrypted by encrypting it further in some other way that makes it look like written text, even if its nonsense.
only reason they want to do this is mass surveillance. Before long eu could become like china and you have to be constantly afraid something you or someone you have had contact with says something that is considered wrongthink. All it takes is couple of elections where awful people get power.
And all that is just from the viewpoint that governments will abuse this. Criminals will find even more use for unencrypted communications.
You are right.
But I try to think things as objectively as possible and hope others would too (but dont expect it).
No one probably thinks what they are doing is wrong or at least try to find justification for it, objectively there are things that cause good or bad things regardless of your intentions. While good results don’t excuse evil actions, bad results are still bad results regardless of your intentions. Its ok to try even if there are risks, but one should always consider if the risks outweigh the results. And sometimes even if everything goes according to plan, it might still cause things to happen you end up regretting and it would have been better for everyone if you had thought it more.
That is what i wish people thought more instead of limiting themselves to just political things and easy terms. Ultimately it doesn’t matter who is in power but what it causes.
Those are good points. But what i mean by that kind of thinking/system resulting in us killing eachothers is that its what i think to be the “endgame” for it. Ones in power exterminate those who they see undeserving of life, criteria for it keeps changing/rising and eventually last human kills second last human, to generalize a bit. And even if it doesnt result in that, it will result in life that isnt worth living for anyone but those select few that are on top of it, except for the hope of toppling it. Its deadend for humans.
If you think about it logically, there are some core things that are always good. Like considering everyone to be inherently equal. While there are things that muddle even this point, it still wont take away that you should always keep those core principles in mind. Religious teachings have pretty good point about this with “treat others like you want yourself be treated” and “love even your enemys”. That is the only logical way to do things because to do otherwise leads to all of us either just killing each other or making life miserable so we want die.
I had some other thought about this too, but i cant seem to be able to properly put it to words at the moment. But the idea was that we should all try to think about things without ego getting in the way and to never lie to oneself about anything or atleast admit to ourselves when we have to do so. The part i cant seem put to words is the part that ties to the previous thing i said.
entire “left and right” spectrum is quite stupid in my opinion. While it generally points towards what kind of thoughtset someone might have, it doesnt seem very beneficial and has been corrupted quite badly so that term for other side is red flag for the another side and drives people to think you cant have something from both ends.
There should be something else in its place, but i cant come up with anything better on the spot though. Personally i have tried to start thinking it on spectrum of beneficial to humanity as whole vs not beneficial, though with enough mental gymnastics even that could be corrupted to mean awful things
Majority of people just dont care about being spied upon unless it directly affects them somehow, at which point its too late for that person. But others having data on you wont likely directly affect you at the moment so not enough people get burned by it for general attitude to change. Smart people understand that all this can very easily change and prepare by not allowing all of their information be available for questionable people to use. Others make fun of them for this and call them crazy until one day they suddenly aren’t so crazy any more.
Meaning might be same, but what it makes people think about is what matters. Ultimately “truth” will be what people think it is and not how things actually are.
for everyone who thinks about what they buy, there are so many those who will just buy and scream how they will do what they want with their money. Relying on people to do intelligent decisions or even care about their own interests is fools errand.
so if someone bullys someone else and victim finally snaps and starts hitting the bully with a knife, that is completely ok in your book because bully deserved it? Or bully’s relatives because regular people in palestine arent ones shooting the missiles nor do they likely have much say in it.
How can something that’s only value comes from exploiting biological process(addiction) have any real “value”? Ones who make this stuff dont have to pay for shit when they make this and it doesnt bring anything positive to the world. Rather, it has negative value and by destroying it you are creating some value.
