I don’t know if day game will work if you are gay, most people aren’t so it’ll be a very high rejection rate. If you’re a girl you probably don’t have to worry about creeping anyone out.

There is plenty of scientific evidence that porn is bad for you. Fap or nofap, don’t use porn.

There is no realistic way to do that. If anything it’s the opposite, progressives have been deceived multiple times by a candidate who campaigned on progressive beliefs and did a 180 degree change when they got in office. A better tactic would be democrats running on overwhelmingly popular positions, but they largely won’t because many of those challenge corporate power.

And you’re ignoring the countless double standards Israel benefits from that other countries don’t to continue the narrative they are oppressed.

Then why do they care about his looks? What does that have to do with leadership?

Whether you are oppressed or a minority is dependent on the context of the specific area, not the entire world. When Germany was attacked in world war 2 by America, Britain, Russia, and others, they were a much smaller minority than all those countries combined, but no one considers them a oppressed minority as they were putting people into camps and bombing cities. Israel isn’t demonized for xenophobic and racist reasons, Israel was much more popular in the past when antisemitism was much more normal and common since ww2 had just ended, they are demonized for breaking international law and mass killing. Israel has been caught firing upon safe zones they have told people to evacuate too multiple times. The UN a and other international bodies aren’t oppressing Israel, they are trying to help them and the Palestinians by pressuring them to follow the law. For example the ICJ’s pressure forced Israel to admit to torturing Palestinians in their prisons and now they have renewed awareness about it, although many Israelis then rioted for the right to gang rape Palestinians, many others started applying pressure to improve the conditions. Had this not happened and the UN and others said nothing to “ not oppress them”, the behavior would have escalated. Same for when the US pressured Israel to not completely shut off water, food, and gas to Gaza, had they just enabled them and let them continue far more innocent people would have died.

That isn’t what is happening. Israelis aren’t a minority, they are the occupying force. It’s not a regular military response, they dropped more bombs than the combined amount dropped on Dresden, Hamburg, and London in world war 2 despite Gaza being the size of Las Vegas, on a population of 2 million people who are 50 percent children who Israel keeps blockaded inside a strip of land with no escape, who prior to this conflict had 40% unemployment, severe lead poisoning, only 6% of water sources being clean, a significant amount of malnourished, and a majority of children showing signs of PTSD from the previous much smaller barrage, while Israel is now ramping up the blocking of aid and vital supplies from entering. Your idea that Israel is the oppressed minority in this scenario makes no sense.

Actually, people at any stage can have sympathy for natives who are mass murdered and their lands stolen

- the Knesset just voted against two states - how would they handle the separation between the West Bank and Gaza - how would they handle the settlements

Rsd tyler had a nice old lecture of the fundamentals of inner game https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SP1J_trjfvL5prESWKCIHZ6EVshQFrub/view?usp=sharing&t=14328 and a old RSD todd lecture on fundamentals of outer game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwyh596L41E&list=PLX4IzIItCFqb1yTDIa5S_NdDPNzbSoTru&index=1&pp=iAQB

Prior to Zionism, Palestinians and Jews had lived there in peace for centuries.

2 million people trapped in a location you will bomb until it is unlivable is way more genocidal than anything the Palestinians ever did. Just watch the videos I sent, I think you are oversimplifying Hamas’s behavior. I’m not saying they are a good influence or anything, but it’s not as simple as they are rabid animals.

So who is the genocidal one in this equation

So would you consider if orders are given specifically to target civilians that is terrorism?

Israel refused to respond to peace proposals or peaceful protests so they went for kamikaze actions to try and trap Israel into hurting itself and revive their cause, and it looks like it’s working. Netanyahu personally helped fund Hamas, I don’t buy that he thinks you can’t negotiate with them when he paid them. Giving them money while refusing to solve what motivates their cause is way riskier than trying to undercut their militancy with negotiations. Israel negotiated with the PLO who also used to attack them.

They aren’t actually negotiating, saying your rule is you will keep attacking until they are all dead is not a negotiation. Even pro Israel outlets are posting articles saying Netanyahu is purposefully sabotaging negotiations https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-810551 Israel has ignored many opportunities to negotiate with Hamas Source: https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2024/1/22/how-israel-has-repeatedly-rejected-hamas-truce-offers https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/25/middleeast/hamas-officials-say-group-willing-to-disarm-if-palestinian-state-is-established-mime-intl/index.html - Israel’s ruling government party Likud has a charter that to this day calls for Israel control from the river to the sea, meaninf destruction of Palestine, should Palestinians refuse to negotiate with Israel and just declare them genocidal with no hope? That’s would mean truly endless conflict - the problem I have with this is there is evidence that they are purposefully using this designation for Hamas as an excuse to never resolve the conflict Wikileaks leaked a transcript from Israel’s then intelligence director Yadlin saying Israel’s finance minister states Eyewitnesses claim Netanyahu made similar comments Others have suggested Israel should have negotiated with Hamas such as George Soros, and former Israeli security service director Ami Ayalon. Notably they are pro two states whereas Likud members like Netanyahu aren’t.

Iran just gives them money and supplies. You think if that ended the Palestinians would just give up and do nothing? They’ve been resisting since long before Iran was involved.

Nothing about trying to negotiate with Hamas and giving Palestinians a political option necessarily puts Israelis at greater risk though. Labeling Hamas as purely bad actors to justify further military action just backs them into a corner and makes them more dangerous. Based on your hypothetical what the Israeli response would be is to lock that guy in his house and beat him up every day and refuse to let him out, then be shocked when he attacks. Don’t let him near you or your family sure, but don’t purposefully provoke him to the point where he has no option.

But why should we only believe that public statement and not the public statements on reconciliation or a ceasefire?

There are surely genocidal people inside Hamas but I think just painting the entire group as always pure evil and impossible to negotiate with is false and hurts chances for diplomacy. Here are short interviews with two historians who studied the history of Hamas, I think there is more nuanced to the group than that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Pjo3bJPrd8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgIWm5Sw5Gc

Now that Noam Chomsky is paralyzed, Rudy seems to be the last person who ever debated him

1) Hamas has never attempted to genocide the Jews. You might say they would if they could, but I don’t see how you can point to their actions as proof they are genocidal, committing terrorism doesn’t mean a group is genocidal. And more importantly, where is anyone suggesting Hamas be put in a position where it would have a capability to do that? Also, like with all groups Hamas has different attitudes and factions that developed over time. It’s clear that Hamas became more extreme in response to Israeli violence and rejection of their diplomatic suggestions, I can give more detail on this if you don’t believe me. Basically violence towards them made them more extreme over time. 2) I didn’t say Hamas is absolved, I don’t follow what this is responding to. 3) I’m not ignoring it, I’m also saying strategically this operation makes Israel less safe. For one, a wider war between Hezbollah and Iran is now a risk, this is a greater threat than Hamas will ever be. Secondly, if inflicting violence on Gaza in response to attacks is what secures Israel for the future, why did Oct 7 even happen when Israel bombarded Gaza multiple times prior? Why were those acts of violence not stopping it? If you’re saying because they didn’t go all the way and fully destroy Hamas, to that I’ll point out it’s unclear if Hamas is going to be fully destroyed even with this attack, and the same conditions that gave rise to Hamas would still be here and in fact much worse, which would stand to reason would give rise to more violent groups. Hamas only had its current strength because the PLO had given up violence but failed to achieve any goals, so Palestinians turned to Hamas. If you look at Israel’s history, the clear pattern is violence begets violence. Even Hezbollah itself was spawned from the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. The two main adversaries it removed were Egypt and armed resistance from the PLO, and both happened thanks to diplomacy. I don’t see why now this would be any different.
