I’m just wondering in what strange and creative ways people would contort this into different fetishes.

I feel like you haven’t been reading anything I’ve been saying. Idk man the people on here sure like to think I am but I’m pretty sure actual Zionist would hate me even more.
To myself I am free of any national, religious, cultural, or political ideology beyond that I want to end needless and avoidable suffering for all minds anywhere in existence. That includes all humans and even nonhuman minds on earth as well as minds anywhere else in existence. So if by your definition that makes me a Zionist then so be it but I don’t think a Zionist would agree with the above definition. In short call me whatever you want, it won’t change the above statement for me.


Mad? Not really. I’m sad there’s not enough coverage on other tragedies. Personally I would rather all of these tragedies end so I guess wanting the killings in Gaza to end and the killings elsewhere to end makes a dumb Zionist then I guess that’s how it is although I don’t think actual Zionist would agree with my views to free Palestine.
Still going. Now I’m intrigued.


I don’t think just talking about what’s happening literally is minimizing anything. All. Of these atrocities should end immediately. If that view makes me scum to you then I have bad news for you buddy.
I wonder how long this will go on.


What’s one criticism you have of China or the CCP?


You’re right, anything critical or controversial about China is actually false. It is indeed a utopia in which there is no human suffering whatsoever. Anyone who says otherwise is only spreading propaganda because they’re jealous. Only things critical or controversial about other countries are true.


Mostly that they don’t get much news attention at all, most definitely not in contrast to other tragedies.


Just noting that a lot of human suffering seems to go unnoticed and what we choose to focus on particularly in the global news doesn’t seem related to the sheer amount of human tragedy but more so how financially influential something is, particularly towards the wealthier countries and regions.
How do you feel about echo chambers and just talking to people who already agree with you on everything?
No (◠‿◕), let’s learn to embrace our differences and love one another. No need for Lemmy to be just another echo chamber on the web. There’s already enough of those.
That’s good and all unless you’re talking about cancer, you see context is everything.


Dude you can’t complain about something you’re doing yourself. If you haven’t noticed there’s a bit of sarcasm on both sides of the fence here. So this is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black eh?
Officially I’m not mentally enslaved by or beholden to any nation, religion, political ideology or culture. I wish all minds everywhere in existence experience less needless and avoidable suffering, not just human minds on earth.
Also no there are other tragedies happening and I do believe people ignore them mainly because it doesn’t mess with their money and that’s about the ins and outs of it. Either that or it’s not connected to the abrahamic faiths and all the wonders that’s brought humanity. Seriously there’s like too many abrahamic death cults trying to end the world. Also there is a vague brown (or browner) people are less human thing going on.

anyone who doesn’t immediately agree is scary. I get it.


I’m sure that was an honest apology. Anyways, didn’t your mom or dad or whoever raised you teach you any manners? We can have a discussion without calling each other names, you know like rational and civil adults.
To answer your question, it’s not just western news that is shy of these other genocides, its global news and well global news is global. Personally I think it boils down to money and influence. For example if there is country X who has zero influence internationally and is killing millions of people in its borders or even millions in country Y who itself has minimal international influence then the rest of humanity is mostly fine with it because it doesn’t affect their money.
Obviously Iran has a massive influence on oil and global trade so any issue there will get consistent global coverage. Similarly Israel and their greater Israel plan is destabilizing an entire region which similarly messes with global trade and commerce so that’s going to get a lot of attention.
In contrast to the above what’s happening in the Tigray region of Ethiopia generally doesn’t affect global commerce or threaten to destabilize a region that heavily affects global commerce.
Aka people don’t care about much unless it affects them personally generally speaking. All their virtue and moral signaling over one tragedy but not any other is kinda a farce.


Not the same crash test raring, but yes vehicles have gotten ridiculously large, particularly trucks and SUVs
I’ve done industrial networking protocols but never Bluetooth. I’m guessing some equipment didn’t implement the standard correctly or fully. Typically there’s someone you gotta pay like $10k+ to verify your equipment meets the standard so you can put the logo on the box but I’m sure the headphone or whatever device has pawned that responsibility off to whoever they bought their Bluetooth chip from.
