The US is roughly the same percentage and it was definitely a comment from a US political frame. In the US they are simply more visible as they congregate in cities.
Government consultant here. The federal government does nothing if it is not military related or medical care in the Department of Veterans Affairs. Everything they produce is done via contract. That includes leadership which is queued up using consulting. Sure, they make the decisions but that’s not management or the visionary leadership people think it is. It’s all contract management.
See, light and water I can make/clean myself. I’d replace them with one of the firearms to counter other humans and maybe the dog for danger detection.
You only use the firearm if you need it. If you need it, you really want it.
There’s a lot of heating solutions in the world that do not involve fire and even so, plenty of ways to do light sanitation exist.
A lot of these are highly contextual in terms of the type of outbreak and individual skills but I think my options give more flexibility overall for me personally.
I’m not sure how anyone could think that a massive terror attack including rape and kidnapping by the government of a state is not justified pretense for a declaration of war. This is textbook and I’m not sure how Hamas and you could expect anything less.
Partially but there is also an information gap about perpetual violence coming out of Gaza from the region as well. Just because Israel got better at defending does not mean they are not reacting in a vacuum.
I have yet to have someone provide me with a source where Hamas/PA admits that an air strike hit something other than civilians. Why would you take an organization at its word that has been shown time and time again to directly make up reality before reports are validated?
If you are wondering why there is a generational gap in support for Palestine, that’s why.
There Lemmy goes inciting violence again. Why is it considered okay if it is the right kind of subversion? 99.9% of people are rational but that leaves millions that take this as a calling.
So maybe don’t advocate for murder. Additionally, don’t suggest it as a solution if your views do not represent the majority opinion. That’s literally called radical extremism.
Well, everyone is entitled to a fair trial. They are not guilty or eligible for capital punishment until that’s completed and found guilty by a jury of their peers. Try again, extremist.
Inciting class war is old Marxist propaganda when the societies that followed it closely all reformed or collapsed. Those that reformed still have single party authoritarian systems following the fascist economic model. Either direction was precursed with a bloody revolution and ideological purges. It’s not a model I recommend you follow.
Labor minded westerners shifted to a democratic reform model almost exclusively. This is a great primer for that direction for the curious and those that want more academic context. youtu.be/eHYpcXWCkUM?si=Y-cj7IYtiAmP7crq
I’m so sorry you have to deal with this. I saw so many deaths and suffering due to this disease through records in the VA health system and it constantly enraged me. I can only imagine what it would do to someone impacted by it directly.
