Are you a real person? Israel has been destroying Gaza since way before October 7th.

This is hilariously short sighted.

I remember when I still lived at my parent’s house.

I guess it’s a good thing I don’t care how you feel about it. I grew up and learned in the military. It shaped me into the man I am and the skills and discipline I learned have done me a world of good. You don’t have to like it but you don’t get to shit on it. You haven’t done anything to earn the right to judge me.

Nice false equivalency

Fuck off. I have 3 deployments under my belt and 0 war crimes. Some of us are just born poor as fuck and wanted to go to college. The military honestly isn’t some monolithic entity… 90% of the people on this thread literally have never talked to a service member and it shows lol

OK Boomer.

I had to.

Almost all " non-lethal" munitions are really “less lethal” and capable of killing someone if they get hit in the wrong area. They also easily maim. I saw a pellet from what are called “donkey balls” which are essentially clay-more mines filled with little rubber pellets bounce off a wall fast enough to go through someone’s cheek and exit out the other side of his mouth. TLDR You can really fuck someone up with that stuff. Cops think they are like nerf toys.

Hubris detected. Opinion ignored.

You are correct. Times have changed unfortunately.

Right. It’s disgusting.

You don’t have kids do you?

The Lemmy trifecta

Olympic level stretching

I didn’t realize you switched from being a smug asshole to genuine.

I’m a more of a reformist myself.

You seem to be digging for something but I can’t quite put my finger on it.

Your the one who decided that my rhetoric was anticommunist. You tell me genius.

The rhetoric you push is against the very policies that are considered communist. You just admitted that communist policies are used in the countries

That book isn’t taken seriously by the majority of the educated people. Your literally arguing against making your own life easier. We were talking about AI tools before you went off on a commie-tangent.

noun The art or study of using language effectively and persuasively. A treatise or book discussing this art. Skill in using language effectively and persuasively.

Do you?

What rhetoric is that? I’m excited to hear whatever unhinged idea you have.
