Yeah I mean I can agree with the second paragraph for sure
I dont know the statistics off the top of my head, I’m just wondering how it measures up considering the number of people
But you’re right. Especially considering what’s just happened this week
Mm idk about that. Yes there is a lot of violence against women in India. Generally, the Indians flying are not gonna be the ones doing that. Secondly, there is a lot of violence against women all over the world, it’s not just an India thing. Hell half the US political system is trying to give women the death penalty for the consequences of being raped. Or just for deciding they don’t want kids.

Ah that’s fair I would agree with that but I don’t think 99% of Israelis would.
How? Where are they going to get all these weapons? Russia doesn’t have enough to give them. They’re not gonna buy from Iran. Maybe china but china most likely will not want to back Israel. And if the US and it’s allies say they’re done with this Israel isn’t going to attack anyone because the US would just sit back and let Hezbollah and Iran do what they want
Lancet is literally one of the most, if not the most, prestigious medical journal in the world.
If you don’t believe the actual medical journal then you’re lost. Plus Israel has bombed Gaza so much that they have destroyed all the hospitals and record keeping facilities. In addition, the US government passed a bill limiting publications from talking about the death toll. https://www.commondreams.org/news/genocide-denial-congress
On top of that, Israel has dropped a minimum of 300 bombs per day on Gaza since October 8th. If each bomb only killed one person, we would have a death toll of 300 per day x approximately 300 days is 90,000.
Would be cool if Biden gave Ukraine all the money he’s giving Israel.
I work 5 days a week but have to go in 3 now so just counted those
The other two I still wfh
Not to mention it’s just exhausting spending 5 hours of your day in commute
That’s about 15 hours a week I could use to work and to go out with my dog, work out, actually do work more efficiently with two screens, and just idk spend some time with friends
Lol I have no reason to be in the office for my job. My company started forcing people back in January. I take the train in. It takes me 2.5 one way, 5 hours total. Doesn’t make any fucking sense that I have to make the journey, and it makes no fucking sense that the train ride takes an hour and 45 minutes
If it’s two minutes do you need to be driving? That seems like a walk or bike
Erasing words because there is the potential for damaging feelings isnt the way to go.
I agree re sexism, etc., but I don’t think we should rewrite books or words. Let people know what they mean, and then explain why it’s bad.
For ex. Re-publishing Enid Blyton or Mark Twains works with certain words that are racist removed or edited. I don’t think that should be done. Let people learn how they were used and why they are wrong.
Or pulling down statues of Confederate leaders because they were racist and fought to have slaves. Don’t do that. Keep the statues up. Add a plaque or a message stating why they were assholes. Don’t erase history. Don’t rewrite it. Just make sure people have the knowledge.
What’s that have to do with anything?
I’m pretty sure the entire argument since 1948 has been that they want to be a state.
I’m pretty sure it’s literally in the idea of a two state solution.
Really? I don’t really recall getting too much snow recently in the city
I live in Boston. Traffic is absolutely no worse than it was 15 years ago.
I’m Indian and Hindu and I think Modi is a psycho despot who needs to be stopped. And I’ve thought that since he was in power. And I know quite a lot of Indians who feel exactly the same.
No, we shouldn’t support any genocidal state
And look what has happened to the US supreme court in the last few years… That seems to completely disagree with your point. It has been stacked with very partisan judges by politicians looking to game the system
