Plus, there are contrarians everywhere.

He’s not pretending.

I don’t think that’s fair. Plenty of people in this world do not know much about computers or the internet or anything in that area and just need a printer. So they go to their local big box store and there’s the HP printers and they’re a good deal, so they buy them.

Consumers do not get what they deserve when companies treat them like shit just because they don’t have certain knowledge.

He has almost no filter and I think if he was a secret KGB operative, that would not be a secret by now because it would have just come out at random at some point.

He’s extremely malleable, loves rich people and authoritarians, and will agree with almost anyone who kisses his ass. So it’s pretty easy for Putin to just wrap him around his little finger.

There is no difference in that sense. That doesn’t mean the truth is fungible.

Dahl was a great author but wasn’t a very pc person , his family have had to apologise for his anti semitism.

That is putting it very mildly.

"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews. I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere. Even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”

He said that in *checks notes* 1971.

Worse, it was in response to criticism to an article he wrote that was justifiably criticizing Israel at a time when it wasn’t so popular to do so. And when he was accused of the old “you’re anti-Israel, so you’re anti-semitic” nonsense, he decided to go, “hell yeah I am!”

So from what I can tell, here is all of the places Trump has threatened either directly or indirectly to send the U.S. military since taking office in January:

Greenland
Panama
Gaza
Canada
Ukraine
Mexico

Did I forget any? I realize the U.S. has one of the biggest militaries in the world, but I think maybe he’s going to stretch them a bit thin?

“Voice acting as a profession just doesn’t pay,” she said.

True in the U.S. too, as I know from personal experience. And becoming even less true with AI voices that can realistically simulate emotional inflections. Basically, except for a very small number of people, VO is a side gig.

This is why I will always be labeled a Zionist no matter what I say or do. It doesn’t matter how much effort I have put into trying to stop this genocide or how much I condemn Israel… nothing I ever say or do will be enough because I happened to be born from certain parents.

I also never call anyone a goy, or consider myself chosen. Again though, that doesn’t matter. To at least 26 people on Lemmy. Probably far more.

Such a deafening silence.

I am a Jew. I have never supported Israel and I have always condemned it.

That never seems to matter though. To people like you, I’m genetically a Zionist.

I do. Betting that Trump lied about something is usually a pretty safe bet to make.

Then I guess the election shouldn’t have been a referendum on Palestine for anyone and Trump should have been stopped for all the things he’s now getting away with.

Don’t piss off Teju Jagua.

That’s not how perspective works.

I could see that if the second bear wasn’t missing two sets of legs.

If it’s already started slipping into fascism, you could be too late.

You have to stop fascism before it ever starts.

So what you’re saying is California will declare its independence as soon as the genetic experiments to create an army of two-headed bears are successful?
