You should maybe read the article. And watch the linked video.
But I don't really care. Liberals who support genocide are a dime a dozen and never really worth conversing with. Blocked.
I mean, we'll never do it under capitalism, Gore. So you good with dismantling capitalism?
(Crickets, I'm sure.)
Hell yeah! Well done!
Why do these supposed Bezos masks have hair on them, though? Heh.
As for environment, the US nuked themselves over a thousand times, mostly on the Nevada desert. People in the 1950s used to go to Las Vegas to watch the explosions, nowadays they still go for the casinos, and that’s after many of the old dirtier bombs got exploded above ground....
The US honed that skill by turning nukes into a tourist attraction for its own citizens over 60 years ago.
Here you go, you revisionist, gaslighting piece of shit:
The partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty
The fallout from atmospheric tests created a global health crisis. A 1961 study revealed that strontium-90, a radioactive isotope, was building up in the teeth of children living in the St. Louis, Missouri area, hundreds of miles away from the nearest nuclear test site in the Nevada desert. Efforts by thousands of scientists and the international public raised the alarm about contamination from atmospheric nuclear tests and urged global leaders to act.
By 1963, the international community had negotiated the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, which prohibits carrying out nuclear tests in any environment that would allow radioactive material to spread across a country’s borders, including atmospheric tests, underwater tests, and tests in outer space.
The Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty dramatically reduced and eventually ended atmospheric nuclear testing. But nuclear testing did not slow down. Instead, countries with nuclear weapons shifted to underground test sites.
Just because a particular city nearby didn't suffer the effects of fallout doesn't mean it was under control and didn't have horrific effects on people literally hundreds of miles away. You are literally just spewing "clean nukes" propaganda straight out of the playbook of the U.S. arms industry. Go fuck yourself.
Nah, dude. There's plenty to disagree with in the parts of this message and your other reply down below where you try to imply modern nuclear weapons are clean and pose little to no risk beyond that of conventional weapons. Gaslight all you like, but your words are right there for all to see (unless suddenly they gain an edit timestamp after that of this comment, of course...).
This is a terrible take by someone who has heard plenty of propaganda by the arms industry but knows absolutely nothing about physics. Many of the products of the primary and even secondary nuclear reactions from a nuclear warhead are themselves radioactive and have long enough half-lives to do tons of damage in both the short and long terms. Whether or not there is radioactive material spread around is not simply a question of whether some of the original fuel remains unspent.
If all you're doing is spreading war propaganda, log off and go rethink your life.
EDIT: Folks, start here and read other materials by the Union of Concerned Scientists. Don't let this bullshit whitewashing of the dangers of nuclear weapons, their use, and their testing go unaddressed. And speak up against this kind of propaganda showing up in our communities—especially leftist ones.
formerly genecided ethnicities...
Well, except it's not Jews doing it. It's Zionists.
Nice. I gotta wonder why a flying schoolbus which lands in meadows needs a pop-out "kids loading/unloading; do not pass" stop sign on the side, though. LOL. 😉
Only thing I'm going to (have to, unfortunately) buy today is a round in a couple dryers at the laundromat, because I've put it off too long already and the clothes line is currently a no-go due to weather. sigh
Freedom of speech and assembly clearly in action, here. Wow. Imagine a court figuring it could tell a union not to decide its stance on something. Fascist state.
They killed over 1000 innocent people in their latest attack, raped a bunch of people, and kidnapped people, including foreign nationals.
Turns out probably not. You should really stop believing Israeli propaganda at face value. A thousand or so people were killed, yes. Many of who were Israeli militants, and many more definitely settlers and not "innocents". Some were definitely killed by Palestinian militants (some of whom were Hamas members) during the prison break. But many were killed by IDF and Israeli police, who didn't care who got caught in the crossfire and literally shot Israeli homes with Israelis sheltering inside using tanks. And also literally did air raids on their own military facilities, where IDF soldiers were defending themselves until being killed by their own friendly (missile) fire. And reports of rape during that particular incident have, so far at least, been debunked.
This might, at least, be a bare start to actually educating yourself (though its clear from the sense of your participation here that that is not a priority for you): A growing number of reports indicate Israeli forces responsible for Israeli civilian and military deaths following October 7 attack
Anyway, Hamas good/bad is a distraction from basically everything. It's irrelevant when there's millions of people who have no choice but to engage in violent struggle against their oppressors or be (with more or less speed) genocided.
Their stated goal is the complete destruction of Israel and the Jews
Destruction of the apartheid state of Israel, yes. Not of Jews. You should pay more attention. And destruction of states is good. Destruction of colonialist states is even better. And destruction of apartheid states is an absolute necessity. That doesn't make other aspects of Hamas good, necessarily, but the destruction of Israel is most definitely not a point against them. Israel must, indeed, be destroyed.
Someone get this Zionist fucker out of here, eh?
Yeah, I'm done dealing with anyone with that instant reaction. Too many years of that shit on Reddit and the like. I don't give a shit who thinks that means I'm "thin-skinned". I'm just done with that shit. Bubble me up, cause I get enough liberal nonsense on the news and in meatworld interactions to know damned well what they think, and don't need more of the same absolutely everywhere I go. This is allegedly an anarchist community on a punk-themed instance. If this is the kind of shit I have to put up with even here, while being shamed by other instance users even, then I guess I'm done dealing with the fucking Internet. There's no interesting place to actually participate at this point.
