This I think probably true, but too risky, and not so logical nor smart because then you already got the disease you want to prevent. If you had a very good plan how to protect yourself well enough so you don't have to get any covid vaccine maybe it can be a good idea. This is a good question and anyway easier to see in retrospect.

I knew it in 2021 when I did the vaccine but honestly the risk of blood clots from covid itself is higher, and this is what convinced me to do the vaccine in the first place, but I was concerned about the booster shot so I did only the 1&2 at the beginning.

Those are sort of religions too. LGBTQ is not a choice, however. Why not both at the same time? 😝 But how life will be interesting without conflicts? I think non violent conflicts will ever be, and religion too just in higher versions.

"Neurological disorder" - Name coding of every situation we still don't really understand or don't want to face its consequences, complexity, meaning to person's life and hidden function in his developmental process, makes us to then unjustifiably demonize the neurological pattern, which is in reality only the tube the phemonema is being manifested through (in analogy - only the messenger) what increases the suffering by many folds due to the situation not looked and related the way it should - a healthy mechanism by its essense.

This is indeed wrong too. The aid restriction was cririsized today by the head of the opposition in Israel. This tactic most likely used to pressure hamas to release the hostages, but anyway a bad tactic. Hospitals proven to be used widely by hamas for their purposes. I can agree on that term. Our current far ultra right government does this.

I less know about what Jews did but more what they have gone through. If you know some things let me know. Anyway the religion identity is not so critical to me as the values themselves are regardless of the religion they are expressed in.

To what do you mean by madness? To be fair christianity was not better in the medievals. Judaism has its flaws too. Every religion. Is Buddhism the best? ☺️ Atheism has not less. In fact atheism is also an ideology or if you want - a religion in itself.

Lapid's "There Is A Future" Israeli Centrist party's new post. What we would do differently? 1. The most urgent task: Hostages deal. 2. Enlarge humanitarian aid to Gaza. 3. Continue with his party's plan for a seperation between Israel and Palestine. More inside.

Benny Gantz, the 20th Chief of General Staff of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) from 2011 to 2015, and a Minister of Defense from 2020 to 2022, critisizes harshly the government. "Returning of the hostages is of greater improtance than a military incursion into Rafah."

According to this, every complex dynamics between two conflicting sides might be called a Genocide. Such inflation in those terms not only cheapen their value, but very quickly becomes an easy bypass for the brain from dealing with reality when at every moment it can shortcut his way to satisfaction by using this key word. Then there are no longer two sides that escalating one another in thousands small steps, but only "one side" which is the problematic. That is a very convincing illusion for the crowd in the universities, but not for who hear about agreements, peace negotiations and terror attacks for 30 years.

Additionally this is a self-fulfilling term, and contrary to physical health, in mental health we have to be extra careful in which wording and beliefs we are feeding the mind, and this "illness" paradigm does much more harm than good long term. Even if I can understand what lead the health care system to adopt it in the first place - this creates order and sense of control and that we "know" what we are dealing with. But this is a false assumption ends up worsen the person's situation.

This is just a symptom (in the positive sense) and not the cause, and negligible comparing to the whole dynamic.

Biden is not happy with Netanyahu and the way he manage this war. Both have interest that hamas will be eliminated. At this moment. For sure they have. Compare Israel-US to the Arab world's values. Israel and US share individual freedom values and work together from day one in a very deep co-operation across security and intelligence systems of both states.

US and Israel are together for the same reasons Gaza and Iran are - deep roots of common value systems. There is no such a thing that Israel "drags" US or the opposite, this is not the case at all.

" Hamza Hawidi, a resident of Gaza City who defines himself as a Palestinian peace activist, sharply criticizes the pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campuses across the United States and Europe: "The students are outside in tents because of hatred of Jews and hatred of Israel. As a Gazan and as a Palestinian, I want the demonstrators and the organizers of the demonstrations to know that their hate speech hurts us. If the demonstrations were about achieving sustainable peace and justice - the Jews or the Israelis could be our partners. We in Gaza do not accept hate speech or Calls for terror, and all these foolish dreams of eliminating Israel are disgusting - and will never be achieved. We both, Palestinians and Israelis, are here to stay. The way many gather to express their support for the Palestinians does more to hurt. Do you know what will help the Palestinians in Gaza? Condemn the atrocities of Hamas. Instead the demonstrators routinely call for 'making the intifada global'. They do not understand that the intifadas were also disastrous for the Palestinians, just as October 7 was devastating for the residents of Gaza. Some of the protesting groups blocked Palestinian peace activists like me, and I dare you. They should invite us to join these demonstrations and let us guide them in the right direction, call for the release of the abductees who have been held captive by Hamas for more than 200 days. If the protesters cared about us they would demand that Hamas surrender. This is the only way to reach a ceasefire. The hate speech has reached frightening levels. I saw people shouting at Jewish students to 'go back to Poland'. It's not just the anti-Semitism that makes me despair, it's the hypocrisy. Where were they when Hamas took over Gaza and massacred us? Or when he held us captive for more than 17 years? They don't talk about the fact that Hamas led the Gazans into conflict, Hamas murdered young people in order to steal aid and resell it, and that its failed missiles claimed the lives of hundreds" https://bit.ly/3UfsDKF Photo: REUTERS/Gonzalo Fuentes " You can translate the original article from here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/TAPbXJA7sbzkdi3P/?mibextid=oFDknk

Yes maybe it was a mistake. I will remember it for next times.

You have earned the suspicion we feel for some of you by the incessant flooding of demonization and slogans repeating the same mantras for months with very little, if any, tangible explanations or willingness to engage with substantive discussion. In the message above I really invited you to raise points through writing and didn't say anything personal, but sorry if you get hurted because this wasn't meant. Whatever you want to do from here is up to you.

@Danioover9000 Nobody posioned anything nor said anything about you personally so don't gaslight.

@Danioover9000 I bring tangible points to here, you bring Al jazeera. When you want to have a rational discussion you are welcome 🙂

@zazen The "Ethnic cleansing" narrative is a myth, for many reasons: 1. This video: 2. The 90s - decade of four different signed agreements between Israelis and Palestinians. 3. Genuine and long lasting trials of Ehud Barak (2000), Ariel Sharon (2002-2005), Ehud Olmert (2006-2008) and Tzipi Livni (2013-14) to achieve a two state solution. 4. Upper and under ground fences surrounding Gaza costed ~ 10 Billion dollars, the prove Israel didn't want to to mess with Gaza but to put it behind. 5. Shrinking of compulsory service in Israeli army from 3 years to ~2.6 years and the rise of "tiny but smart army" paradigm based mainly on technology (before oct 7th). https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/12/how-start-nation-brand-failed-israel/676308/ When you have time, I wrote you a comment above.

Can you aknowledge, despite the over generalization and demonization this survival mode causes in the mind of Israelis, the partial importance and necessity of this mode and from where it comes and that it has also valid reasons for? That it isn't out of evillness but out of fear?

+1 ❤️ Greatly put.

The medicalization trend of mental experiences is by itself a problematic perspective needs to be questionable just as everything else.
